We welcome back screenwriter Inês Braga to this week’s episode, as we watch the new Guillermo del Toro take on Frankenstein, and compare it to maybe the finest Frankenstein in all of cinema, Mel Brooks’ 1974 Young Frankenstein. Two experiments gone wrong, two crazy scientists, two lightning bolts. But which film owes the greatest debt to James Whale? Which film features a barely disguised Peter Thiel? Which film has a beginning that never really pays off? Which film gave some welcome work to artisans and craftspeople? And which film’s producer drove Inês around Los Angeles for a week? 
Plus: a documentary about a dark episode in history, a disappointing remake of a Schwarzenegger movie, a look at the new Luca Guadagnino picture, a cameo from The Hulk, a tour through some deleted scenes, and a delivery of 400 small buckets of petrol.
