This week, we're discussing an incredibly inaccurately titled film (aka La Marca Del Hombre Lobo) that features way more Mysterious Puddles than Frankensteins. And we're super excited to welcome Very Special Guests Alyssa and Courtney from the fantastic Silver Scream Podcast! Put on your favorite turtleneck, gorilla suit, or Eyes Wide Shut Party mask and join us in the homoerotic dungeon where we're writing fan fiction and having a Wet Dinner. Oh, also, the Invisible Man joined us for

We're finishing up our Franken-war movies series, going out with a bang! Join us as we fly the unfriendliest skies, watch some Zazi's do a Ghost Ship, and Eric waxes poetic about mid-90s Canadian sci-fi series Lexx. Oh yeah, and there's flying killer robot sharks!

This movie is jam-packed full of killer Nazi zombies, but after last week, it actually seems pretty grounded. It's basically a good ol' fashioned hard-boiled war movie... until it isn't. Join us as we discuss our future hopes and dreams while walking through a minefield, put the biggest scare quotes of all time around the word "unconscious", and meet our second disembodied-and-yet-still-alive lady head in as many movies. What a job we've created for ourselves. Please rate, review, and tell your

We thought we'd start sharing the first few minutes of our Patreon episodes here on the main feed to give everyone a taste of what you can expect if you join us at patreon.com/thefrankencast. This week we're discussing the short-lived and mostly-forgotten dark comedy TV series from the late 70s, Struck By Lightning. We're specifically discussing the pilot, since it appears that's all that still survives. But if anyone knows where to track down the other 11 episodes, let us know!

Feeling some deja vu? This time it's a different Frankenstein, and a different army. This time our monsters are a lot less friendly. But that makes sense when you're dealing with Nazi monsters. Join us as we run our shaky POV cameras up and down hallways, make new friends like the Mosquito Man and Propeller Head, and learn the TRUE meaning of the phrase "I'm of two minds about the situation." Oh, and we meet the world's most upsetting teddy bear. The Buddi Bear from Child's Play has got nothing on

This week over on patreon.com/thefrankencast we discussed this absolutely brilliant narrative poem by Elizabeth R. McClellan that explores the thoughts of Victor Frankenstein's never-living second creation, the Bride he gave up on. It's a heartbreakingly beautiful poem that we cannot recommend highly enough. We're presenting the full episode here on the main feed because we're so excited to share Elizabeth's work with you all. Read the poem for yourself at Apex Magazine. And if you like what you

This is definitely the first movie we've covered that features an American president. And maybe the only movie ever to feature an American president getting crushed to death by a Frankenstein. Join us as we hang out with our great grandparents, become a lightning rod ninja, and Megaman blast John Wilkes Booth into dust. It's a very silly, very good time. If you don't like it, we'll pay you five Franken-bucks. Please rate, review, and tell your fiends. And be sure to subscribe so you don't miss

Join us as we find SO many innuendos, try to uncover the rainbow mystery, and learn some exciting news about a nearly 100 year old painting. Try not to shiver with antici...

If you have a Chekhov's gun joke sitting out at the beginning of a podcast, you know eventually it's going to go off. And all of our Chekhov's humor has finally come to fruition as we go down the rabbit hole of ouroboros nesting dolls hidden inside The Actor's Trunk that is this bizarre short film that ultimately explains how we got into Juilliard. Sound confusing? Good. Join us as we meet David Harbour as David Harbour III, David Harbour Jr., Victor Frankenstein, and Frankenstein's Monster. There

The Throuple is all together for the very first time! We had to bring in The Bride from over on the Patreon so we could all talk about this weirdly wonderful little story. Do the Clever Boy Dance with us as three childless people talk seriously about parenthood, identify so many potential "adult" toys, and unfortunately find the most American (worst) character in this lovely little Welsh town. Afterwards, we'll take a trip to Honolooploop! Please rate, review, and tell your fiends. And be sure to

Wanna date? It's February, so we're looking for love on the streets of New York, home of super drugs and reanimated sex workers.

Everyone cue up The Buddi Song and get ready to sing along! We're taking a look at the much-maligned attempt to reboot the Child's Play franchise. It turns out it's basically a first draft of M3GAN and a bit better than we remember. Cut a slice of watermelon and join us as we try to figure out what time of year it is, feel super conflicted about a good cop, and show our age by talking about My Buddy and Teddy Ruxpin dolls.

We're doing something a little different this week as we went to visit America's homicidal robot sweetheart in the theater. Join us for this spoiler-lite episode where we discuss our addiction to technology, making ourselves redundant with AI, and kickass dance sequences. Oh, and the mysterious butterfly/airplane combo. We do give one spoiler, answering the important question: does the dog die? (*See below.) Please rate, review, and tell your fiends. And be sure to subscribe so you don't miss future

CW: This is another one with scenes of SA. It's basically a classic revenge film in the same vein as I Spit On Your Grave but with more psychic powers, and not nearly as much Frankenstuff as the title would suggest. Yes, we somehow resisted the temptation to do an "In the year 2000..." joke in this final Frankenwarp episode. Join us as we point out all of our cool posters, grow the raddest braided ponytail of all time, and attend the world's most unfortunate themed costume party. Oh and there are

CONTENT WARNING: SA, grooming(?), just general bad vibes. Like, so many content warnings. The Frankenwarp has sent us all the way to the year 1990 in the fantastical land known as France. Join us as Dr. Frankenstein wears a fake face on his real face, knocks out his wife with her own science experiment, and then almost feeds it to the guard dog. And that's just in the first five minutes! There's also some Very French Road Rage, Frank's Famous Double Graves, and the worst episode of Wife Swap
