“From the Amazon’s forbidden depths came the Creature from the Black Lagoon”

Ruiz Burgos has created an alt Creature from the Black Lagoon poster worthy of the original film. Don’t you agree?
“Frankenstein” (2025) written & directed by Guillermo del Toro / Z-View
Frankenstein (2025)
Director: Guillermo del Toro
Screenplay: Guillermo del Toro; based on FRANKENSTEIN by Mary Shelley
Stars: Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, Christoph Waltz, Mia Goth, Charles Dance, David Bradley, Kyle Gatehouse, Lauren Collins, Ralph Ineson, Peter MacNeill and Burn Gorman.
Tagline: Only monsters play God.
The Plot…
1857. The Horisont, a ship sailing to the North Pole, has become trapped in ice. While attempting to free the vessel, the crew finds a badly injured man named Victor Frankenstein. They bring him aboard and begin treating his wounds.
Not long after, a huge scarred man with incredible strength attacks the ship. Several of the crew are injured or killed. The monster demands that Victor Frankenstein be turned over to him. Instead the Captain orders his men to fire upon the creature. The shots break the ice around the monster and it sinks away.
As the crew rejoices, Victor Frankenstein says that the creature can not be killed. It will return and attack again. Frankenstein says he knows this because he created the monster.
This is his (and the creature’s) story…
Thoughts (beware of spoilers)…
Guillermo del Toro licensed Bernie Wrightson’s illustrations from Wrightson’s FRANKENSTEIN graphic novel adaptation to be used in pre-production of the film.
Del Toro has created a beautiful adaptation. It is well cast, well directed and well acted. The set designs are award-worthy. I enjoyed the experience of watching it, but his Frankenstein is not one I feel I will be re-watching much.
Frankenstein (2025) rates 4 of 5 stars.

- Max Winkler (eps. 1-3; 6-8)
- Ian Brennan (eps. 4-5)
Teleplay by:
- (eps. 1-8) Ian Brennan
Stars: Charlie Hunnam, Suzanna Son, Vicky Krieps, Laurie Metcalf, Tom Hollander.
Tagline: None.
The Plot…
Ed Gein was a murderer and grave robber. In 1957, when a sheriff’s deputy, following up on a missing person’s case went to Gein’s farm he discovered the missing woman’s decapitated body in a shed. The partial corpse was hung upside down and mutilated. In Gein’s house some of what authorities found included:
- Whole human bones and fragments
- A wastebasket made of human skin
- Human skin covering several chairs
- Human skulls mounted on bedposts
- Bowls made from human skulls
- A corset made from a female torso skinned from shoulders to waist
- Leggings made from human leg skin
- Masks made from the skin of female heads
- A victim’s face made into a mask in a paper bag
- A victim’s entire head in a burlap sack
- A victim’s heart in a plastic bag
- A belt made from female human nipples
- A pair of lips on a window shade drawstring
- A lampshade made from the skin of a human face
- more
Gein was determined to be mentally incompetent to stand trial. He was sentenced to a State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, where he lived until his death in 1984. Ed Gein’s murders and depravity inspired the novel (and later movie) Psycho, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and more.
Thoughts (beware of spoilers)…
Charlie Hunnam is almost unrecognizable as Ed Gein. Kudos to him for taking on such a challenging role. Laurie Metcalf is perfect as Gein’s mother.
I wish Monster: The Ed Gein Story stuck closer to actual events. Liberties are taken that I feel weaken the story. For example, Gein never had a love interest. Gein never chased down and killed lost hunters with a chain saw. Gein never had contact with Christine Jorgensen, an American actress famous for being known as the first transexual widely known in the United States.
Because of these fictional additions, it makes me question things when other real life personalitites, like Anthony Perkins and Alfred Hitchcock show up. I realize Monster: The Ed Gein Story isn’t a documentary. But it is supposed to be Gein’s story and that was creepy enough.
Monster: The Ed Gein Story (2025) rates 3 of 5 stars.
