Frankenstein (2025) – Tech bros, trauma, and a super-horny monster movie on NetflixMary Shelley by way of Guillermo del Toro feels almost too perfect, and Frankenstein (2025) absolutely leans into that match-up: lush Gothic sets, grotesque body horror, tender fairytale beats, and a very modern anxiety about people who build things they can't control.In this episode, the Bad Dads dig into Netflix's lavish new take on the classic, framed in the icy Arctic as Victor Frankenstein (Oscar Isaac) and his Creature retell their shared nightmare from two sides. Along the way we get abusive fathers, creepy power dynamics, “18th-century tech bro” energy, and more limb-sawing than is probably healthy for a school night.We also talk about how weird it is that this $120m movie technically “bombed” at the box office but only because it was dumped into cinemas for a week to qualify for Oscars, and what that says about modern streaming, awards campaigning and how success is measured now.In the episode we cover:Netflix's blink-and-you-miss-it theatrical release strategy and why the film only made $144k in cinemasOscar Isaac's monstrous turn as an abusive, glory-hungry surgeon vs the Creature's unexpected gentlenessMia Goth, Christoph Waltz with gold shoes, Charles Dance as the worst dad alive, and why this is a strangely “horny” FrankensteinThat brutal opening on the ice: shattered legs, ship-tipping strength and a monster that just won't dieGenerational trauma, perfectionism and how Victor immediately becomes the same kind of father he hatesThe forest/fairytale stretch: mice, a blind old man, found family, and the heartbreaking deer sceneAll the grisly stuff: hanging bodies, severed limbs, skinned wolves and why the practical sets and make-up look incredibleFrankenstein as an AI / tech parable – creating something powerful, sentient and uncontrollable, then trying to kill itThe big split on the pod: is 2.5 hours richly earned or just too long for a story we already know?Mary Shelley's original novella, written at 18 on a dare, and how its ideas still infect modern thrillers, conspiracy stories and sci-fiIf you like your horror Gothic, your monsters tragic, and your movie chat equal parts thoughtful and filthy, this is a good jumping-on point.

Publicado pela primeira vez em 1818 pela jovem Mary Shelley, Frankenstein se tornou uma das maiores obras-primas da literatura de horror e ficção científica. Nesse tempo, a história do cientista inconsequente que ousa desafiar a morte foi transportada inúmeras vezes para o cinema. Em 2025, após muita espera, foi a vez do cineasta Guillermo del Toro apresentar sua versão deste clássico, acompanhado por nomes badalados como Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi e Mia Goth.

In the final episode of Old Spook Lane Creepy Chats of 2025 covering spooky stop motion animated films, Arun and Patricia discuss about the 2022 Netflix animated film Wendell & Wild directed by Henry Selleck and co-written by Selleck and Jordan Peele. A teenage juvenile delinquent named Kat Elliot returns to her hometown Rust Bank to a private Catholic school. Her parents had died in a car accident 5 years prior and she still carries the guilt that she was responsible for it. Meanwhile, two demon brothers named Wendell and Wild wish to start their own theme park after being punished to care for their father's hair. When they learn that the hair cream can raise people from the dead, they see a vision of Kat and believe they can convince her to make their dream a reality. Kat wishes to use them to get her parents resurrected using the same hair cream.When the film premiered on Netflix, it was given decent reviews by critics for its animation, characters, and atmosphere, but was criticized for the story being too overstuffed and convoluted. It was also overshadowed by other stop motion animated films that were released that year such as The House, Marcel the Shell with Shoes On, and Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio. What did Arun and Patricia think of this film?

Sticking closer to Mary Shelley's novel than most other adaptations, Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein is the culmination of a lifelong dream. His vision echoes the gothic maximalism of Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula, starring Jacob Elordi as a sympathetic interpretation of Frankenstein's Creature. But does this movie measure up to GDT's past hits? Steffan and Gavia have mixed feelings, delving into the film's characterization choices, production values, and relationship with the novel.

It's a tale as old as time… well, as old as 1818 at least, since that's when Mary Shelley's novel was first published. And after multiple film adaptations, Guillermo del Toro is now putting his stamp on this classic monster story. Tune in as we're joined by Philip Faiss, host of Netflix & Phil, to break down Netflix's “Frankenstein” — from the many different layers behind this narrative, to the ways del Toro changed the source material, and of course, how Jacob Elordi can be sexy even as The Creature.Check out Netflix & Phil on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@philoween_trends

Visual effects veteran Dennis Berardi joins the podcast to discuss the resurrection of his legendary studio, Mr. X, and his latest collaboration with Guillermo del Toro on Frankenstein. Dennis shares the technical and artistic challenges behind the film, detailing how his team blended massive physical builds with digital artistry to create the film's "invisible" effects. From creating expansive Arctic icescapes in a Toronto parking lot to blowing up 20-foot "bigature" miniatures for the climactic tower sequence, Dennis explains how they achieved an operatic scale while maintaining the emotional intimacy of Del Toro's father-son narrative. The conversation also navigates the complex business of visual effects, as Dennis recounts the dramatic story of selling Mr. X to Technicolor and his subsequent fight to reclaim the brand and IP after the parent company's collapse. He outlines his philosophy for rebuilding Mr. X as a boutique, filmmaker-focused studio that values artistry over volume. Finally, Dennis, Chris, and Daniel speculate on the future of the industry, discussing the impact of AI, the fracturing of the VFX market, and why relationship-driven, smaller shops may be the key to sustainable high-end filmmaking.

It's time for Amy's spooky season pick - and we don't really mind that it is halfway through November. As anyone who listens to the podcast (or knows Amy at all) could guess, she was so excited to watch Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein; it is not, however, Kat's cup of tea (again, as you all should know). But that doesn't really matter, because as it turns out, Amy can talk about the film for literally 45 minutes almost entirely on her own. It's a fascinating look into the brain of two storytellers, one who loves gothic horror, and the other who may not love, but deeply respects it. Explore the anagories, deep dive into the nuance of Intention, and join the hosts as they explore the film that Guillermo Del Toro has been waiting to make since his childhood.

PREPARE YOURSELVES: the first ever double review episode is upon YOU!!!! In what can only be described as a historic “creature double feature”, the verbose Watch/Skip Plus guys take on TWO movies in one episode - stripped down, no pluses, quick intro's, full on movie review glory! First up, yet another reinvention for the Predator franchise, Predator Badlands crash lands in theatres. Dan Trachtenberg (director of the last two Predator films - Prey and the animated Hulu exclusive Predators:Killer of Killers) gambles that audiences will take to a Predator film from the vantage point of the Predator itself. Did this perspective shift/PG-13 CGI fest work or should it be trophy killed as prey? Next up, Pod-Father Sam U. Rai from the Gentleman's Guide to Midnite Cinema sneaks in and the three take on the much anticipated Frankenstein, a little streamer exclusive on Netflix from wonderkind, monster-lover Guillermo Del Toro. After all the adaptations of Mary Shelley's thought-provoking novel,  did Del Toro build us a better masterpiece or are his creative excesses (brilliant and visually appealing as they are) taking the sheen off his usual visionary style? PS: Listen on to find out the weird James Cameron connection and the similar themes in both films!GET THIS DOUBLE INSIDE YOU………NOW!TIMESTAMPS00:00 Teaser04:52 Predator Badlands: The Franchise13:17 Predator Badlands: Below the Line / The Crew 18:22 Predator Badlands: Above the Line / The Cast20:40 Predator Badlands Spoiler Free Thoughts33:08 Predator Badlands SPOILED!43:29 Frankenstein: Intro44:17 Frankenstein: Below the Line / The Crew 49:24 Frankenstein: Above the Line / The Cast58:23 Frankenstein: Spoiler Free Thoughts 01:24:05 Frankenstein SPOILED!01:47:29 Outro- - - - - - - - - -WE ARE WATCH SKIP PLUS! FOLLOW/LIKE/SUBSCRIBE/REVIEW/LOVEEmail us: WatchSkipPlus@gmail.com#predatorbadlands #dantrachtenberg #ellefanning #dimitriusschusterkoloamatangi #patrickaison #sarahschachner #benjaminwallfisch #jeffcutter #20thcenturystudios #fox #disney #tsgentertainment #frankenstein #guillermodeltoro #oscarisaac #jacobelordi #christophwaltz #miagoth #felixkammerer #charlesdance #danlaustsen #alexandredesplat #bluegrassfilms #demilofilms #doubledareyou #ggtmc #jamescameron #berniewrightson
