Frankenstein
Oscar's prep #4
this was phenomenal. everything from the costume and makeup to the color grading was exactly want I hoped it would be. I won't like id been putting this one off for when I felt like I may truly appreciate it and I think that was a good choice for me. the storyline was perfectly played out by isaac and elordi. I'd argue that elordi should almost be nominated for lead actor but I understand the semantics as to why he isn't but still. I think the only slight issue was the teeth of the creature in my opinion but that is seriously nit-picking. I loved the segmentation of the plot, the narration by the characters from their pov and overall amazing film. I don't necessarily see elordi winning, but in costume design this is definitely a front runner.
