Episode 921 House Frankenstein on Eden

Bill (fighting a brutal cold) and Chris are back, drowning in 2025 horror releases and already behind schedule. Quick life updates: high-school theater, travel baseball insanity, and holiday retail chaos. Main Reviews Frankenstein (Netflix, dir. Guillermo del Toro) A gorgeous, heartbreaking, Bernie Wrightson-inspired adaptation that's the closest anyone has come to Mary Shelley's novel. Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi are phenomenal; the creature has never been this human or tragic. Minor gripes about length and a forced romance, but still the best Frankenstein film ever made. House of Eden (Shutter) Mega-TikToker KallMeKhris writes, directs, and stars in her found-footage debut. Three content creators investigate a "secret" haunted house. Unfortunately it's a greatest-hits compilation of Blair Witch/Paranormal Activity tropes, riddled with continuity errors, shaky-cam abuse, and unlikable characters. A finished movie with 50 million followers behind it… and that's about all the nice things we can say. Quick Listener Segments Joe blows up The First Purge  Rev.
