    "Want a date? Looking for some action? Need some company?" Mary Shelley's 1818 classic /Frankenstein/ has been the inspiration for many an adaptation, but Frank Henenlotter's 1990 /Frankenhooker/ is like no Frankenstein adaptation we've seen before. In this episode we dive in to "A tale of sluts and bolts" (and apparently a Bill Murray favorite!) and ask: How did Mary Shelley's articulate, misunderstood creature transform into an undead prostitute with a weaponized vagina? What can /Frankenhooker/ teach us about bioethics? Is /Frankenhooker/ a feminist film? Join us as we answer these questions and more! Let us know what you think of the podcast!
