Day 13: Frankenstein (2025). Guillermo del Toro has been making movies about Frankenstein for thirty years, so what's left to say in his direct adaptation of the text?

31 Days of Horror: The Collector (1965) Not a love story

31 Days of Horror: The Collector (1965)
a surprisingly nuanced and beautiful looking movie about how you'll never win against a man who's setting the rules

yeah i felt like i had to... theres two men who die in the film and they die off screen. I feel like if I had more time I could have dug deeper into it but i think it comes back to my conclusion about the film being oblivious to the cycle it's part of

thank youuu yes i agree! like despite it being intended for a full theatrical release the slight illegality of how it felt for so long made the shoddiness of it feel almost intentional. it being on Amazon Prime somewhat dulls that

31 Days of Horror: The Curse of Frankenstein

I tried again to like a Hammer Horror film, but found instead a strangely dry take on the novel with very little monster or humanity in it

A picture of three models, smiling and posing with a variety of merchandise promoting HELLRAISER. There’s everything from t-shirts and jackets to mugs and duffel bags with the HELLRAISER logo, and Pinhead’s face printed onto them.
