Best Answer

Mary Shelley started off one of the greatest plot lines of Science Fiction and Horror: the Frankenstein Syndrome. In a nutshel, if you build a monster it will kill you. This plot device has been used since Ms. Shelley told her "ghost story" in that Swiss chalet hundreds of years ago.

Some movies and books that have copied this are:

  • The Andromeda Strain
  • Planet of the Apes (the entire franchise)
  • 28 Days Later/28 Weeks Later
  • Night of the Living Dead
  • The Walking Dead
  • The Last Man on Earth
  • The Omega Man
  • I Am Legend
  • Edward Scissorhands
  • The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde
  • The Island of Dr. Moreau
  • The Giver
  • The Handmaid's Tale
  • The Forever War
