"Mothering Monsters: Mary Shelley's Frankenstein" by Anne K. Mellor from ASU English on Vimeo.
factoid of the day: The original monster had long black hair and yellow skin...
of course, Shelley's novel is a bit different from the films, but you can download and listen to it HERE at Librivox....
and those who like modern horror stories might be interested that Dean Koontz has rewritten a modern version, (which I haven't read).
