Frankenstein (1931) & Bride of Frankenstein (1935)

Ayesha from the Every Sci-Fi Film Ever podcast joins Elysia for a look at the classic Universal Monsters films Frankenstein (1931) and Bride of Frankenstein (1935), discussing everything from on-set drama and injuries to Hollywood's new decency codes – to, of course, how the films both do and do not adapt the book they're based on. As they dissect the philosophy and filmmaking behind these movies, they also set the stage for that period of mad-scientist filmmaking, and give an overview of how the adaptations of this story have gone from there – up to a preview of the new Guillermo del Toro movie Frankenstein (2025) and Maggie Gyllenhaal's upcoming The Bride!
