The first Frankenstein franchise film without Karloff and it shows! In this episode: Jason tries to see how many times he can call Ghost of Frankenstein's plot "bonkers". William still finds plenty to like about this movie even though today's Frankenstein fans are unimpressed. See Dr. Henry Frankenstein transform from to Colin Clive to Cedric Hardwicke after he dies. The afterlife has not been kind to the not-so-good-Doctor. Can this franchise get worse? Maybe, but Bela Lugosi's Ygor is still th...

We discuss the character arcs in this movie and how they made these characters we've grown to love so much more human, and how jam-packed with Easter eggs to find thi...

A new decade! And a smelly banana peel... In this episode: William injects the production history into our spines, as if we were guinea pigs in the big hamster-wheel of life. Jason lays out the "plot" for all of us to hear, being unable to be kong-victed of its a-peel (Sorry not sorry) And these two victims wander back and forth, circling but never finding the smells they're looking for.

This tale of two sides with two very valid arguments, in the atmospheric stretched-to-the-limit cityscape that is this story's Berlin, shows another perspective from the ideas presented by Fritz Lang's other prominent film Metropolis in a way that two words can sum up... "Me likey." In this bonus episode: William slaps a letter on the production of this movie, identifying it to be fairly suspicious at best. And then Jason tells the plot in f...
