This feels like a dark comedy plucked from a different era and it works in that respect. A few misses here and there yet comes together nicely in the end.

We enjoyed it overall. There were a few funny parts but the story had multiple holes. My wife enjoyed it and I got to spend time with her so it was a good day overall. I thought this was going to go a different direction. They bring up an axe murderer early on in the movie. I would have preferred if she was actually the murdurer and the entire Frankenstein thing was just something that was in her head.

Target demo will be for those younger than us, but this had its moments. Some asinine, some well executed. On the whole it felt a bit more cringe than not, but I appreciate the intent and it looked like everyone involved had fun making it. The 80s style is what drew us to this one, and the sets, music, and colour palates used were fun. Good editing and decision on overall length as well. 5.9

I had high hopes for this as it had a promising story and visually looked good but it was devoid of humour and poorly executed. If you want something better, then check out Frankenhooker, Re-Animator or Young Frankenstein instead

Like Frankenstein’s monster himself, the tropes of the man-made creature just can’t seem to stay dead. Luckily, Lisa Frankestein is a ludicrous, hysterical, and pastiche-smattered adaptation that – pardon the pun – really kills the delivery.

Lisa Swallows (Katheryn Newton) is an intelligent More

There are glimpses of goodness, though so short they don't hide the film's frailties.

'Lisa Frankenstein' is, in my opinion, a disappointment. I can kinda see what they were going for and at times I could appreciate it, but all in all it doesn't really work for me. I will say the pacing isn't act More

"Lisa" (Kathryn Newton) is a bit of a loner who lives in one of those second families where her rather feeble dad (Joe Chrest) has married the rather vain and odious "Janet" (Carla Gugino) who has a friendly daughter "Taffy" (Liza Soberano). At school, she has taken a shine to floppy-haired heart-th More

"Lisa Frankenstein marks my first disappointment of the year.

The youthful cast wholeheartedly embraces their campy roles, infusing deliberately exaggerated emotions and expressiveness for an ev More
