Telefilm Canada and Sinema Saliba proudly present:
Frankenstein
Unlimited @ Fantasia!
 A three-year journey finally comes to an end as Frankenstein
Unlimited hits the big screen on Sunday, July 18th at 12:15PM in the
J.A. De Seve at North America's largest genre film festival, the
Fantasia International Film Festival!
In the Fall of 2007, Montreal filmmaker Matthew Saliba launched a
feature-length anthology project composed of six independently produced
short films by young Montreal filmmakers all using the themes of the
original Frankenstein novel as inspiration. In addition to himself,
these filmmakers included: King-Wei Chu, Matthew Forbes, Martin
Gauthier, Peter James and Maude Michaud.
Matthew Saliba's Frankenstein Unlimited is the result of that
ungodly collaboration!
Be it a sado-erotic film noir shot in sumptuous black-and-white or a
poetic epilogue to the original novel itself or a stunning kung-fu epic
starring the one and only Gordon Liu of Kill Bill fame or a
surreal drama set in a circus of freaks or a psychological roller
coaster with twists and turns this side of The Usual Suspects or
an absurd comedy about an evil robotic cat, Matthew Saliba's Frankenstein
Unlimited is a 90-minute kaleidoscopic journey through genre cinema
that takes the themes and mythos of Mary Shelley's creation in bold new
directions via some of the most dynamic, innovative and mind-blowing
shorts you've ever seen!

After the screening, the brand new Frankenstein Unlimited DVD
released by Black Flag Pictures will be on sale so make sure to bring

really broke the bank in getting their creations off the ground and onto
the big screen!
