Monster is an experimental horror film, morphing from a video essay into a nightmare of the flesh. The film stitches its monster from two of the oldest tales of artificial life, Frankenstein and Pinocchio, treated as living folklore that mutates with every retelling. An innocent bedtime Pinocchio curdles into something monstrous as an AI voice seizes the telling — turning from helpful guide into something autonomous and menacing. Found footage, AI-generated imagery and tactile, hand-made stop-motion carry the film from the digital toward the flesh.
