‘Lisa Frankenstein’ Review: A Campy Homage To ’80s Horror Cinema


From the mind of Diablo Cody comes Lisa Frankenstein. Directed by Zelda Williams, the film stars Kathryn Newton, Liza Soberano, Cole Sprouse...

Poor girl is grappling with the challenge of adjusting to both a new school and the aftermath of her mother’s tragic death, alongside her father Dale’s (Chrest) new wife Janet (Gugino) who hates Lisa. The film unapologetically embraces its camp nature, serving as a playful nod to ’80s horror conventions of forgoing logic, acting, and dialogue to prioritize the overall experience. Title: Lisa Frankenstein Distributor: Universal Release date: February 9, 2023 Director: Zelda Williams Screenwriter: Diablo Cody Cast: Kathryn Newton, Liza Soberano, Cole Sprouse, Carla Gugino, and Joe Chrest Rating: PG-13 Running time: 1 hr 41 min
