    Frankenstein (1931) Film VS Book I PART ONE
    Feb 26 2026

    💚⚡In PART ONE of our series on Frankenstein, we see how the Universal classic monster flick compares to the original 1818 novel by Mary Shelley. There's a lot of history behind each piece of work, as they have shaped media as we know it. But which one will stand on top?

    🎈🤡In PART THREE of our series on IT, we're going back to the 90s and diving into the classic miniseries starring Tim Curry. How does is compare to the films and original book? And which Spider-wise is Tessa's favorite? Well you'll just have to watch and see! 😉

    **Apologies for Tessa's audio. This was our first time recording remotely and we'll make sure to get it resolved for next time!

    🎈🤡In PART TWO of our series on IT, we've diving into the 2019 film and comparing it to the original Stephen King novel! The kids are all grown up and taking Derry by storm (except for Tessa and Sam, they're still up to the same old sh*t).

    Join us next time as we conclude IT (thank god) and tackle the 1990 miniseries. If you'd like us to review Welcome to Derry, let us know!
