Genre: Horror / Thriller Director: Ken Russell   Cast: Natasha Richardson, Julian Sands, Gabriel Byrne, Myriam Cyr, Timothy Spall, Alec Mango, Andreas Wisniewski, Ken Russell   An 1816 meeting of friends and cohorts—Percy Bysshe Shelley, Mary Godwin, and Lord Byron—at their Swiss villa brought on the challenge to write ghost stories. The culmination of that meeting was Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin Shelley's tale of "Frankenstein," which was completed two years later. This is the story of that 1816 meeting. It's a sex-filled, blood-and-guts-filled weekend.
