"Monsters in novels were connected with the protagonist, representative of a character's personal failings and failings of society. Film adaptations depict the creatures as engaging in senseless violence, suggesting a fear of the uncontrollable. This dichotomy is analyzed through examinations of Frankenstein, Dracula, She, Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and The Island of Dr. Moreau"--Provided by publisher. Source: OpenLibrary
