This week on episode #154 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we discuss Frankenstein, a film that delivers striking craft but still stumbles on the very ideas it sets out to modernize. We dig into why its execution raises bigger questions about the state of studio horror and what happens when ambition outpaces thematic clarity.
We also cover the latest in film and TV news, including the escalating Predator Badlands discourse, renewal buzz for Alien Earth, unexpected moves in the Taylor Sheridan universe, major DCU project confirmations, early chatter about a Rambo prequel, and more!
