This
movie is about the relationship between a mad scientist Victor
Frankenstein (James McAvoy) and his hunchbacked assistant Igor Strausman
(Daniel Radcliffe).
Igor is working as a nameless freak in a circus due to his physical
deformity, he is a stranger to kindness until he meets Victor, who
recognizes his brilliant mind
and vast medical knowledge. Igor is given a new appearance, a new name,
and a new life by his generous benefactor, on the condition he work as
his partner and assistant,
bringing his expertise to animating individual body parts for use in the
highly-strung medical student's unholy enterprise. Victor, in his
megalomania, as the "creator"
of Igor, demands his complete loyalty, something that is easy for the
grateful younger man to give until he strikes up a romance with Lorelei
(Jessica Brown Findlay),
the aerialist he worshiped from afar during his time at the circus.
Slowly, he begins to see beyond his unwavering devotion to the disturbed
madness of Victor's mania for
creating life out of death.
As Victor and Igor find themselves being pursued by Inspector Turpin
(Andrew Scott), who, as a man is consumed by his religion as Victor is
by his rejection of it, refuses
to rest until he and his ungodly experiments are brought to an end. Only
Igor can bring his friend back from the brink of madness and save him
from is monstrous creation.
