Netflix has just unveiled a full-length trailer for the eagerly-awaited adaptation of the timeless Frankenstein novel.

The production features Oscar Isaac as Victor Frankenstein, a genius yet arrogant scientist who creates life through a horrific experiment.

Jacob Elordi delivers a standout performance in the preview as The Creature, with viewers rushing to YouTube’s comments to praise the film as “epic” and “monstrous”.

Nevertheless, fans have all expressed identical frustration regarding the release timing – having hoped for a Halloween debut given the horror genre.

Frankenstein will screen in selected cinemas on October 17, before arriving on Netflix on November 7.

@terrenceharris-hughes4436 commented: “Wish this was coming out Halloween.”

@BostonStonks posted on X, formerly Twitter: “Shoulda put it on Netflix before Halloween.”

@madmax18840 remarked: “Too funny this comes out AFTER Halloween.”

In contrast to the initial trailer, which presented Victor’s viewpoint, this new preview unfolds from the monster’s perspective.

The spine-chilling footage opens with the creature declaring: “My maker told his tale, and I will tell you mine.”

Enthusiasts have demanded a global cinema launch, expressing disappointment it will only appear in selected venues before Halloween.

One YouTube user declared: “We need a worldwide release on cinemas, this will be another Guillermo del Toro’s cinema masterpiece.”

Another simply insisted: “Release it on theatres world wide.”

Marq, a user on X, formerly known as Twitter, expressed his confusion ahead of the trailer’s release: “Why the f*** would Netflix release Frankenstein a week after Halloween? Makes no sense.”

Jef chimed in with similar sentiments: “The Oct 17 theatrical release of Frankenstein and then streaming Nov 7 makes no sense. Should be streaming before Halloween.”

Hype Engine also weighed in on the matter: “Why on earth would Netflix release a Frankenstein movie after Halloween? ? Better believe I’m gonna try to see it in theaters.”

Frankenstein is being shown in select cinemas on October 17, before being released on Netflix on November 7
