Just in time for Halloween, Netflix has released the final trailer for Guillermo del Toro<\/a>\u2018s Frankenstein, reminding folks to check it out in theaters now and when it arrives on the streamer early next month.<\/p>\n

In comparison to past\u00a0Frankenstein trailers<\/a>, the final trailer, which serves as an accolades trailer with pull quotes from publications lauding the film as good kino, gives us an ample eyeful of Jacob Elordi\u2019s Creature<\/a>. Previously, the towering creature\u2019s visage was shrouded by his cloak as he either loomed over Oscar Isaac\u2019s Victor Frankenstein, or his silhouette was shown as he was getting zapped back to life or throwing folks around rooms and pirate ships. Here, though, we see a mix of the Creature at his most imposing, dragging his deadbeat dad out of his makeshift tent, as well as him at his most vulnerable, tenderly interacting with Mia Goth\u2019s Elizabeth Harlander.<\/p>\n

Though of course, as the neatly embedded quotes lie within the trailer, they underscore the story being told in its final trailer; it\u2019s all about the Creature wrestling with his existence, emphasizing he\u2019s not \u201csomething\u201d but \u201csomeone,\u201d as well as Frankenstein\u2019s reckless abandon, not considering the repercussions for what would come after making the Creature. Those violent delights appear to have violent ends, with the Creature serving as his father\u2019s reckoning.<\/p>\n

Outside of Isaac, Elordi, and Goth\u2019s big marquee appearances in its final trailer, the rest of the Frankenstein cast is adorned by Christoph Waltz as Heinrich Harlander and Felix Kammerer as William Frankenstein. What little else is new we can glean from the trailer is a closer look at the neat miniatures used to make its sets pop. But, by and large, the trailer is primarily a showcase of all the makeup work and prosthetics used to transform Elordi into the Creature, which we aren\u2019t mad about seeing bathed in light as a chaser to the studio portrait look we got of him last week.<\/p>\n

In concert with the pull quotes in the trailer, io9\u2019s review for Frankenstein<\/a> praised it as del Toro at the peak of his powers, writing, \u201cIt truly feels like a movie he was meant to make. A filmmaker at the height of his powers. And he\u2019s given us a film that, even with a few little issues here and there, we\u2019re likely to enjoy from now until forever.\u201d<\/p>\n

Frankenstein is currently playing in select theaters, but if you\u2019re unable to book a ticket over Halloween weekend\u2014what with all the trick-or-treating\u2014the film will arrive on Netflix a week later, on November 7. Though from what we\u2019re hearing, major FOMO<\/a> will come your way if you don\u2019t check it out on the big screen.<\/p>\n
