Summary

In our first episode we go back to the origins of horror and science fiction: Mary Shelley’s 1818 novel Frankenstein . After exploring how this one story birthed both genres (02:55), we then discuss Paul Morrissey's 3-D schlocker Flesh for Frankenstein from 1973 (16:20), and Vincenzo Natali’s genetic engineering thriller Splice from 2010 (52:23). We then end with some Honourable Mentions of other films to check out (1:36:46) that also include some Frankensteinian shenanigans (Frankensteingans?). Hosted, produced, and edited by Liam Dunn and Lindsay Hallam Music composed and performed by Damo Alexander and Rosie Gilbey Artwork by Millie Hallam Visit our website: https://rss.com/podcasts/scifrights/ Email us at [email protected] Follow us on: Instagram Facebook Bluesky Letterboxd
