The Frankencast

We thought we'd start sharing the first few minutes of our Patreon episodes here on the main feed to give everyone a taste of what you can expect if you join us at  patreon.com/thefrankencast . Boy, this week is a rough one. We're back with two of the worst episodes of The Munsters we've watched so far. But it made for an interesting conversation. Be prepared to hear us discussing Amer...

We're back with the weird, meta, behind-the-scenes sequel to I Was A Teenage Frankenstein (and I Was A Teenage Werewolf). Join us as we explore the bizarre science of novocaine hypnotism, creepily talk to movie posters, and very abruptly burn up with our mask collections. Please rate, review, and tell your fiends. And be sure to subscribe so you don't miss future installments. Join us on P...

Join us as we climb on our faithful giant robot companion, leave our dad behind and fly all the way back to the 1960s, when Hanna-Barbera rule...

It's been a while, but we're finally back to a more traditional Frankenstein classic. This one is the main Frankenstein film to come out between the Universal and Hammer cycles, and it's also right in the midst of the teenager cultural explosion. Join us as we benefit from Car Crash Ex Machina, learn about responsible alligator care, and fade to black at Makeout Point. Please rate, rev...

We're so happy to welcome friend of the show Tim Kirk back! This time around, we discuss several of Tim's non-Frankenstein related projects, past, present, and future. Also, Tim comes prepared with some fun Frankenstein trivia and lore! This was an absolute joy, and Tim will definitely be back before long. In the meantime, for more of his work, visit tim2kirk.com . The Miami Vice Incident...

This week we're back with another episode of After Dark, and this is one we've been kicking around for a few months that we just finally decided to record. Join us as Anthony tells The Bride abo...

We're back with one last Hotel Transylvania. And this one feels like a bit of a missed opportunity. There's a good idea here, buried in a lazy execution. But we do get to see human versions of some of our monster friends. Join us as we advocate for zombie worker rights, get confused about the difference between goblins and gremlins, and finally reach the day when we have to face the deep,...

This week your horror hosts are getting a little personal. We're talking about all the ways each of our neurodivergences intersect with our fascination with horror and other genre stories. Join us f...

It's time for the horrific conclusion to the Human Centipede franchise. Again, CW: Everything. If anything makes you uncomfortable, probably skip this movie. We'll try to give you the slightly less disturbing audio rundown. This time we've got all new characters again, but somehow we also have a few familiar faces? How can it be? Anything is possible when a human centipede is 100% medi...

This week we're back with America's favorite monster family. It's been awhile since we visited 1313 Mockingbird Lane, but it's nice to see things never change in the Munsters house. This...

We're back at the Hotel Transylvania! Or, maybe not. We're on summer vacation FROM the Hotel Transylvania, on a cruise ship, which is basically just a hotel on the water. Join us for semi-consensual werewolf tranquilizing, the Deathtrap Tango, and a completely unnecessary giant dog. Please rate, review, and tell your fiends. And be sure to subscribe so you don't miss future installment...

This week over on Patreon, we're back with a free-flowing chat about the State of the Horror Union! We're discussing all the big releases from the first half of 2023 along with some upcoming stu...

CW: Like, basically everything. We're back with more Human Centipede, like it or not. This one ratchets up the unpleasantness of the first film exponentially. But for real, we tried to discuss this film a little more delicately than we do with most films we discuss just because the content is so rough, even hearing about it is likely going to overwhelming for some folks. But it's still A L...

This week over on Patreon, we've reached the final section of Kiersten White's brilliant retelling of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Turns out that the previous sections set a lot of things in...

We're back at the Hotel Transylvania, baby! Join us as we montage through six years like it's nothing, then travel to the gentrified spooky forest, a vampire summer camp with a complicated relationship to child safety, and even... California! *Terrified scream* We'll be meeting secret star of the film Blobby, Johnny's well-meaning but misguided parents, and Dracula's not-so-wel...

And now, for the THRILLING conclusion of League of Frankenstein! Yes, we have more literary characters mixed together haphazardly in an erotic mashup for the ages. Join us for a bloodless surgery, an un...

Welp, here we are, folks. In the surgically scrubbed basement of a weirdly modern home deep in the woods of Germany, presumably somewhere near a dance club called Bunker. Join us as we watch the world's most upsetting PowerPoint presentation (and that's saying a lot), learn the perils of indoor swimming pools, and try to figure out the proper etiquette for when you enter a room and find a...

It's time to Zing, fiends! We're going all the way to Hotel Transylvania, where we'll all definitely fit in and not have to disguise ourselves at all. Join us as we learn about skeleton consent, cannibal Slipknot fans, and table pod-racing. Please rate, review, and tell your fiends. And be sure to subscribe so you don't miss future installments.

It's Frankenstein, but for ladies! This week your Horror Hosts have brought in Special Guest Ryan Nanni to discuss this surprisingly smart and decidedly feminist take on Frankenstein. Join us as we make a big batch of Blood Gin, redefine the term "well hung", and realize that we've been fighting a Voltron of our neighbors all along. You can listen to more from Ryan at the Shutdow...

This week over on Patreon, we're back with the second part of our discussion on Kiersten White's fantastic novel that retells Frankenstein from Elizabeth's perspective. This episode finishes...

This is ostensibly a sequel to last week's film. It has easily twice as much nudity and violence, and yet still has a more coherent plot. It also has a blind, cannibalistic bird person with echolocation and psychic powers. Join us as we give Dr. Frankenstein a taste of his own medicine like 5 times, try the world's worst Trojan horse plan, and discuss the pros and cons of poisonous spikes....

This week over on Patreon, we're discussing two songs by shock rocker Alice Cooper. One is a pretty straightforward rocker using Frankenstein's monster as a metaphor for adolescence, and the oth...

What can you say about this movie? It has so little to say, that you could write out all of the dialogue on a post-it note. But it does have so many flappy bats, some really intense zooms, a secret vampire girl, and a werewolf ex machina. Take your brain out, put it in a specimen jar beside the couch, and enjoy! Please rate, review, and tell your fiends. And be sure to subscribe so you don't m...
