PATREON BONUS: Frankenstein & Warhammer 40K

The Frankencast ·

2024/09/23

It's been awhile since we've shared what we've been getting up to over on Patreon here on the main feed, so we thought we'd share a full episode with y'all this week. And this week, Eric surprised Anthony with so much Warhammer lore to celebrate the new release of Space Marine 2! Join us as we discuss this nearly 40 year-old tabletop miniature war game, complete with the dozens of times various people throughout the Warhammer multiverse got up to some Frankensteiny

2024/09/19

IT'S SHOWTIME! As soon as we saw something even slightly Frankensteiny in the new Beetlejuice, we knew we couldn't resist the chance to talk about it here. So join us for our discussion that starts generally and then gets very spoilery. We'll warn you before we do though. Get ready for a surprising number of animal attacks, SO many weddings, and an inevitable puppeteered dance number. Would it even be Beetlejuice without it? Please rate, review, and tell your fiends.

2024/09/12

This week, the Frankenstein Monster does his most monstrous deed yet: he invites us to attend his one-man show. (One-monster show?) But it's good actually? We've certainly never seen anything like this before as the Creature monologues at us for a full 90 minutes, and it's pretty compelling. Join us in the abandoned church for some Very Serious Theatre!

Alright, fiends, we've had just about enough of your teen trope behavior. We'll see you in DETENTION. (Which of course will be held at the local spooky wax museum, as is tradition.) Join us as we get freaky in a coffin, and on top of a wax dummy, and near the mutilated zombie of Hitler. Oh, to be young again.Please rate, review, and tell your fiends.

Uh-oh, fiends, we've got to raise exactly $1,238,463.38 before the weekend is over, or else the town is in trouble! We better call on our favorite group of child-like weirdo monsters to help. Good thing we've kept them sealed away in a nearby cave all these years! Has anyone seen our Wolfie? Please rate, review, and tell your fiends.

152. Frankenstein: Legacy (2024) dir. Paul Dudbridge

The Frankencast ·

2024/08/22

This week, we're discussing another new release, but one you may not have heard of. We've got a decent example of a direct-to-streaming legacy sequel, this is decent but not great, and that seems to have mostly been overlooked. But it's definitely worth your time. Join us as we recover Victor Frankenstein's lost journal and then end up just having to deal with a bunch of rude jerks. It's not exactly fun, but it is interesting.

This week, your favorite Horror Hosts are traveling to outer space with the MCU's wackiest bunch of galactic misfits. Sure, there are other movies in the series, but are they Frankenstein stories? Not so much. This one, which tells the story of Rocket Raccoon, however, is a different story. Join us for this heartbreaking, sad and sweet film, where we discuss good dogs, divorce, and our old friend Lloyd Kaufman.

It's episode 150, so it's time we finally talked about the movie called Frankenstein! No, not that one. No, not that one either... Okay, so there are a lot of movies called Frankenstein, but this week, we're talking about the lesser-known BBC TV movie set in modern (2007-modern) times. Join us as we look at this still quite relevant, melancholy reinterpretation complete with gender-swapped mad scientist, evil unhoused guys, evil government agents, and a fairly gross tank full of genetic

We're back with more Death Race! And when I say more Death Race, I mean we basically watched the same movie two weeks in a row. Join us here in the future Appalachian Desert for this ostensible sequel to Paul Bartel's Death Race 2000, which is really basically a remake with the addition of clever place names. We do get to talk about some pretty interesting stuff regarding gender and race though. So that's something. Please rate, review, and tell your fiends. And be sure to subscribe so

Well, fiends, we may have gotten a little lost last week, but we've finally made it to the beach. Just be on the lookout, because we heard some mad scientists down the road have misplaced their mutant sea monster. Join us as we get very analytical about "gentlemen's magazines", meet the ACTUAL Ghost of Frankenstein and question his makeup choices, and compare the artistically superior Director's Cut of the film against the vastly inferior standard release.Please rate, review,

Well, we got fooled this time, fiends. Not since Frankenstein's Bloody Terror have we come across a more deceptively titled film.

2024/06/06

If this week's movie isn't a Frankenstein story, it is at the very least a Frankenstein Monster of a story, mashing Faust, Picture of Dorian Gray, Phantom of the Opera, Dracula, and (yes, even) Frankenstein together into something that's also kind of the Rocky Horror Picture Show? It's the best kind of crazy mess. Join us at the Paradise where you definitely (probably) won't get attacked by a vengeful Phantom in a spooky bird mask. Please rate, review, and tell your fiends.
