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

Editor - Evan Schiff ACE Frankenstein editor Evan Schiff ACE first began his journey as an assistant editor on Del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth (2006). Over the next, nearly two decades, Evan would establish himself as an action movie editor to be reckoned with.  He would flex his cutting chops on films like John Wick: Chapter 2 (2017), John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019) and Bob Odenkirk's action debut, Nobody (2021).  Evan would also drop by the MCU to cut The Marvels (2023).  But to hear Evan tell it, it was hardly his skills as an action editor that would prompt Del Toro to hire his former assistant editor to cut Frankenstein. Produced, written and directed by Guillermo del Toro, and based on the 1818 novel by Mary Shelley, Frankenstein stars Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, Mia Goth, and Christoph Waltz. The film follows the life of egotistical scientist Victor Frankenstein whose experiment in creating new life results in dangerous consequences when his monstrous creation comes to life. EVAN SCHIFF ACE (In Evan's own words...) Originally from Syracuse, NY, I started my career in the film industry at the age of 16, between my junior and senior years of high school, with an internship at Stan Winston Studio (now Legacy EFX). After graduating from high school and being accepted into USC's film production program, SWS hired me back to do tech support as their Systems Administrator and eventually their in-house VFX Editor. I worked there part-time for all four years of college and full-time for one year after. While at USC, I got bit by the editing bug. I found that, even more than creature or visual effects, I loved sitting in the editing bay for hours on end putting my student films together. So a year after graduation, and five years after starting my job at Stan Winston's, I started to pursue editing full-time. It was slow at first, but eventually I got my first few jobs as an assistant editor, and things took off from there.

Earth's Mightiest Critics come alive with an electrifying roundtable review of Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein!The legendary genre director of Pan's Labyrinth, Hellboy, and Crimson Peak returns with a sprawling adaptation of Mary Shelley's classic sci-fi/horror novel, which follows a scientist's (Oscar Isaac) obsession with creating life from nothingness. The result is a hulking, animated monstrosity (Jacob Elordi) whose terrifying visage masks a lonely, searching human soul. But Victor Frankenstein's meddling in the natural order sets tragedies in motion that will set creature against creator in a pursuit spanning years and continents!Del Toro has called Shelley his "first love".

"Celebrities provide an escape from the mundane. They are photographed so we can worship them—so they are worthy of our worship." -- David LaChapelle "A photographic portrait is a picture of someone who knows he is being photographed." -- Richard Avedon   In this episode Antonio and Ward take on the world of celebrity portraiture — from the classic work of masters like Irving Penn, Avedon, and Karsh to modern takes by photographers such as Platon and Tyrell Hampton. Their discussion starts with Oscar Isaac's recent GQ shoot and spirals into a larger conversation about what it means to photograph fame: whether we're seeing the real person or a performance crafted for the camera. They weigh how much control the celebrity, the photographer, and the publication each have in shaping these images, and how context — from lighting to location — turns a portrait into a cultural artifact. The two also reflect on why celebrity portraits endure long after the marketing fades, comparing timeless images like Audrey Hepburn's portrait by Irving Penn and Platon's unnerving shot of Vladimir Putin. Along the way, they contrast authenticity and artifice, recalling famous stories behind iconic portraits — from Churchill's scowl to Meryl Streep's unretouched close-up.    Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

There is a mysticism that covers Latin America. Stories of monsters, spirits, and tales of dark family secrets. Sure, it sounds like a telenovela, but literature calls it Gothic: tales that frighten and force us to confront our fears. Now, Mexican filmmaker Guillermo del Toro has reimagined the classic gothic story “Frankenstein.” But this time with a Latin American twist. Del Toro’s adaptation features catholic imagery, long stares into the camera, and Guatemalan-born Hollywood superstar Oscar Isaac. Oscar gets into the film, the state of the country, and why he dropped Hernandez from his stage name.

Synopsis Honestly if you don't know what Frankenstein is about, I don't know why you're listening to a horror movie podcast. Review I heard a lot of mixed reviews about this, but I tried to stay away from as many spoilers as possible, as if this story could really be spoiled. Del Toro does add some new elements to the classic tale, some might say maybe too many new elements. Some might say that. I'm not saying it. But some might. It is kind of long. This movie is beautifully shot, albeit sometimes you can tell it was Made For Streaming (cough cough why is the sunlight in my face cough cough), but for the most part it's colorful, playful, and imaginative, with backdrops and settings that match the incredible costumes. Mia Goth looks ethereal in all of her elaborate gowns, veils, and feathers. Her wedding dress deserves its own moment of silence. The bandaged look around her arms? So major. The costumes tell their own stories, and they do a wonderful job at that. Oscar Isaac gets hotter every time I see him in a movie. Don't know how he manages that but he manages it well. Even though he's pretty evil in this he still looks good. Jacob Elordi does an amazing job as the Creature, he proves himself time and time again, with physical and emotional acting. He captivates and intrigues. He shines.The story is good, it is a bit hammed up at times and Del Toro is quite heavy handed; so much so that it feels like being hit in the head with a hammer. Yes, I understand the story you're trying to tell Mr. Del Toro, thank you for making sure I do. Also not a big fan of the narration aspect, don't think it added much to the story. I really could have done without the Danish sailors in their entirety and this would have been a lot better. Christoph Waltz was a pleasant surprise, although his character has little to no narrative impact. I always enjoy seeing him on screen but I felt as though he was a little pointless. All in all I really had a good time watching this. It's compelling, emotional, gorgeous, and thrilling. And God Damn You Netflix For A Limited Theatrical Release. Score 8/10

The gang's all here, for the second week in a row! This week they cover Bugonia, Plur1bus, Oh, Mary!, Frankenstein, and the Stranger Things Season 5 sneak peek.   As the show starts, Kevin immediately passes off the reins to Lauren, who saw Bugonia in theaters this week. It's another Yorgos Lanthimos/Emma Stone joint and it's as weird as you'd expect. And if Lauren is to be believed, possibly weirder. The story follows two less than brilliant men who kidnap a powerful CEO, played by Stone. They are convinced she's an alien and the madness ensues from there. It's a bizarre premise that flirts with Sci-Fi in new and interesting ways. It may not be a “must watch” but it sounds like a fascinating watch nonetheless.    Kevin and Andrew use the sci-fi bit to transition into the new, very hyped, show, Plur1bus on Apple TV+. This is from Vince Gilligan, creator of X-Files, Breaking Bad, and Better Call Saul fame and it stars Rhea Seahorn from BCS. The show has released to incredible reviews nearly across the board, so you can just imagine Kevin and Andrew would be loving it… But you'd be wrong… After 2 episodes, the guys are genuinely confused about the hype, finding that the show lacks the character depth early on to equal the hype so far. That being said, they appear to be in the minority, so if you've watched it and loved it, tell us why in the comments. We're dying to understand!   Next up, we start moving towards things the gang really enjoyed. Lauren takes us to Broadway with the show, Oh, Mary!, a very wild what-if story about Mary Todd Lincoln. It's very progressive and at times over the top, but in the best of ways. This show does require a very open mind and imagination, but it is an absolute TON of fun and a must watch if you aren't the overly sensitive type.   Keeping with the trend of things that are fantastic, Kevin watched the new Guillermo del Toro film, Frankenstein, on Netflix. It stars Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, Mia Goth, and Christoph Walz. The genius that he is, Kevin has never read the original book, but he does swear this film feels like it must be a faithful adaptation. As with so much of del Toro's work, it's a visual feast and the acting is magnificent. It's on the longer side, at about 2 and a half hours, but it goes by quick and is absolutely worth the watch.   To close out the show, Andrew brings up the sneak peek at the first 5 minutes of the new season of Stranger Things. They agree that the story looks strong and it will be a great finish to the story, but Kevin finds himself a little let down by the effects in the trailer. Also, it's important to know, some of the discussion around the show centers around Kevin's (losing?) debate with a high school student about the second and third seasons. He's been relentlessly bullied but he's staying strong. (That's not really true, but he's being a baby, so go with it).   As always, thank you for watching.

Billy Bob Thornton WRECKS Woke Hollywood celebrities like Oscar Isaac pushing Politics!

Matt and Bob fire up the lab equipment for a new Analysis on Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, fresh to Netflix. What should have been the director's long-awaited monster opus instead leaves them puzzling over CGI deer, swoony color palettes, and a strangely sexy Jacob Elordi. They dig into Oscar Isaac's mad-scientist energy, Christoph Waltz's syphilitic benefactor, and why del Toro's empathy may have drained the horror from Mary Shelley's tale. From Victorian melodrama to Twilight-core vibes, the guys debate whether this gothic romance ever truly comes alive. Then they pivot to The Smashing Machine—Benny Safdie's gritty UFC biopic starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson—and talk addiction, obsession, and Emily Blunt's thankless “nagging girlfriend” archetype. Rounding out the episode: Oscar buzz power rankings (One Battle After Another, Hamnet, Sentimental Value), and a quick look at upcoming awards-season heavy hitters like Bagonia and Marie Supreme.

There is a mysticism that covers Latin America. Stories of monsters, spirits, and tales of dark family secrets. Sure, it sounds like a telenovela, but literature calls it Gothic: tales that frighten and force us to confront our fears. Now, Mexican filmmaker Guillermo del Toro has reimagined the classic gothic story “Frankenstein.” But this time with a Latin American twist. Del Toro’s adaptation features catholic imagery, long stares into the camera, and Guatemalan-born Hollywood superstar Oscar Isaac. Oscar gets into the film, the state of the country, and why he dropped Hernandez from his stage name. Latino USA is the longest-running news and culture radio program in the U.S., centering Latino stories and hosted by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Maria Hinojosa.

Coy Jandreau & Aaron Alexander react to Frankenstein (2025) — director Guillermo del Toro's epic adaptation of Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley. This Gothic-science-fiction spectacle stars Oscar Isaac as the obsessed scientist Victor Frankenstein, and Jacob Elordi as the haunting and tragic Creature. Supporting performances include Mia Goth as Elizabeth Harlander, and Christoph Waltz as the sinister patron Henrich Harlander. In this tale set in 1857 Europe, Frankenstein's experiment to fuse life from death spirals into a tragedy of ambition, identity and the monstrous consequences of creation. From the chilling lab resurrection scene, to the Creature's learning to speak, to the freezing Arctic ship finale, the film delivers moments of awe, dread and deep emotion. Stand-out and highly searched moments include the storm-lit reanimation sequence, the Creature's discovery of language and reading, the lab fire and betrayal of William Frankenstein, and the dramatic ice-bound ship confrontation. With del Toro's signature visual flair, a sweeping score by Alexandre Desplat, and a bold retelling of one of literature's longest-told myths, Frankenstein (2025) offers both monster spectacle and emotional depth.

Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein is a new reimagining of Mary Shelly's classic gothic horror tale about a misunderstood monster who's abandoned by his creator and shunned by society. Oscar Isaac is the narcissistic doctor Victor Frankenstein, and Jacob Elordi has a gargantuan yet humanizing turn as The Creature. Now streaming on Netflix, Frankenstein is dark, epic, and preoccupied with the existential dread of life and death.Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopcultureLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Then, they unpack Guillermo del Toro's ‘Frankenstein,' starring Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi.
