SPECIAL EPISODE: Frankenstein (2025) w/ Geoff Bretches
Welcome back to this VERY special episode of Film Haven Reviews!! This week we are discussing Guillerlmo Del Toro's newest adaptation of Frankenstein (2025)!! We are also being joined by an incredibly special guest; my buddy Geoff Bretches who knows all things Gothic AND Occult which comes in handy when talking about this story that is so rooted in both!
This is one of those novels that really changed my entire experience with Gothic Literature and so every adapation lends itself to incredible insight and limitless discussion. This movie is no different! Del Toro managed to stay true to the source material (and the 1931 film) while also blazing a new path himself, making a particularly fruitful and vivacious adapation that Geoff had a blast picking apart and analyzing. If you haven't seen the film yet, go to Netflix and watch it RIGHT AWAY!!! Otherwise, enjoy this amazing conversation!!
If you want to see more content from Geoff here are some of the places he is at! I highly recommend reading his substack!
