Mary Shelley’s horror gothic fiction, Frankenstein, has been adapted several times in both literature and cinema. Over these years, the good old tale of humanity’s quest for supreme greatness turning into its misfortune has been presented in many forms and stories. Netflix’s Turkish drama Creature is the latest addition to the mythos.

But the effect is the opposite, and as the show progresses, it comes across as repetitive and somewhat boring. Unfortunately, more than anything, it’s the first episode that really fails the show, making it out to be some sort of dramatic horror epic but later turning into a story for children.

Creature is a 2023 Turkish horror mini-series directed by Çağan Irmak and starring Taner Ölmez, Erkan Kolçak Köstendil, and Şifanur Gül. The series is a modern reimagining of Mary Shelley’s classic novel Frankenstein, set in Ottoman-era Istanbul.
The series follows the story of İhsan (Erkan Kolçak Köstendil), a brilliant but reckless scientist who is obsessed with the idea of creating life. İhsan’s student, Ziya (Taner Ölmez), is also passionate about science, but he is more cautious and ethical than his mentor.
When tragedy befalls İhsan, Ziya takes it upon himself to finish his mentor’s work. However, Ziya’s experiments soon go awry, and he creates a monstrous creature (played by Engin Benli).
The creature is initially confused and frightened, but it soon realizes that it is different from everyone else. The creature is also aware that it is dangerous, and it tries to avoid contact with humans.
