About this listen
This week, Jade , Lavender and Crimson are diving head-first into the gothic depths of Frankenstein (2025 film) — the highly anticipated new adaptation by Guillermo del Toro. Set to stream globally on Netflix this November, the film reunites del Toro with his signature blend of mythic horror and emotional spectacle. (Netflix)
🎬 We explore:
How del Toro has long described Mary Shelley’s novel as his “favorite,” and why this project has been a decades-in-making dream. (Wikipedia)
What makes this version unique: a sweeping gothic aesthetic, theological and familial themes (creator vs. creation, fatherhood, abandonment), and del Toro’s promise this isn’t just a horror movie, but a deeply emotional one. (Le Monde.fr)
Our hot takes: What this means for the monster-movie genre, the legacy of Shelley’s novel, and whether del Toro has finally turned the myth of Frankenstein into his masterpiece.
