## Resource

On this week’s episode, Bruce and Tracy dive into two generations of horror storytelling. We start with Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein (2025), now streaming on Netflix, and explore its emotional heart, striking visuals, and powerhouse performances. From Jacob Elordi’s unforgettable take on the Creature to Oscar Isaac’s intense portrayal of Victor Frankenstein, we unpack why this version feels more like a dramatic, gothic reimagining than a traditional horror film, and why it still leaves such a deep impression. Then we jump back 55 years to revisit Crowhaven Farm (1970), a landmark in made-for-TV horror. Tracy shares her first-ever viewing experience, while Bruce reflects on how this atmospheric witchcraft tale shaped his early love of the genre. We talk about its eerie slow-burn tension, memorable performances, and the twists that keep it chilling decades later. Whether you’re here for modern monster mythology or classic supernatural suspense, this episode blends fresh perspectives with nostalgic horror history.
