"The creators of frankenstein and BR have anchored their visions in the socail and cultural realties of their time. Despite contextual differences, however, at the heart of both texts is a fear that we may not be able to control what we create." Is this your view of these texts?

First thing that strikes me is to talk about scientific hubris, and the usurpation of God.

The first thing to set up your essay would be to discuss these contextual differences for each text. As for not being able to 'control what we create', you should refer to both texts' warning as to pushing scientific boundaries, and what resulted from this happening.
