Abstract

This article, about Frankenstein’s Army, a horror film by Richard Raaphorst released in 2013, will lead the reader to consider the political overtones of the work. For that purpose, the different monster figures will be studied one by one: the soldier during the war, the creatures of Frankenstein and the society that he created.
