Everyone knows Frankenstein's monster was played by Boris Karloff. But Bela Lugosi also tested for the part. The screen-test footage was lost for decades, until never-say-die film archivist Valentino gets a hot tip about its whereabouts. But it comes with a price far greater than the money he'll have to pay. Someone would kill to get that reel of film, and that makes Val a mortal obstacle who's not ready to die for art. Enter a crew of steampunk fans.
