Ep. 115 - Frankenstein (Shelley, 1818/ Whale, 1931)

**THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS**

The podcast...IT'S ALIIIIIIIIVE!!! Hello, you little freaks, and welcome to today's episode where we cover Mary Shelley's 1818 gothic masterpiece, "Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus." More than 100 years after Shelley's book, director James Whale would reanimate the material into "Frankenstein," kicking off Universal Studios legendary run of monster movies, which would further kick off decades upon decades of Halloween costumes (Danny went as Frankenstein at age six!). How does the movie compare to the book? Does Boris Karloff's performance still hold up all these years later? Listen to find out... IF YOU DARE!!!!
