I am only familiar with a couple movies that are direct adaptations of Mary Shelly's novel.

Aren't most of the movies that character appears in just spin-offs and sequels?

Yes but a lot of times the basic story of Frankenstein is included--the creature being created.

You could also say Jurassic Park and the Matrix are Frankenstein inspired.

Another is War of the Worlds--lots of alien invasion stories come from that.

"Learn from me, if not by my precepts, at least by my example, how dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be the world, than he who aspires to become greater than his nature
will allow." Frankenstein
