FRANKESTEIN vs OvO


Direction James Whale
Year 1931
Nation USA
Duration 70'

Synopsis

After Nosferatu (Nightmare 2012), OvO band performs another sonorization of a Classic of Horror cinema, the very "paradigm" of all monsters: the Frankenstein.
Monster is often just a sinonym of "diversity": and the brutal tale of this being, capriciously created by man and suddenly rejected because of its ugliness and diversity, is a perfect example. Like James Whale's life (the director of the 1931  version) who was one of the first omosexual who did his coming out in Hollywood.
OvO will go through the film following an experimental flow between rock and Electronic music.
