synopsis
Director Juraj Jakubisko's Gothic horror comedy about an orphan who hides out in Frankenstein's castle with a lovable rogues' gallery of monsters. A bittersweet, slapstick cross between Monster Squad, Young Frankenstein and the Island of Misfit Toys, Freckled Max is a nostalgic Gothic fairytale about broken hearts and monsters who long to be loved for who they are - and a truly delightful discovery for genre fans.
