🔩 Resurrection never goes to plan—especially when the Bride has her own ideas. Once she’s back… she decides what happens next.⚡️

👋 Hello everyone! I’m so excited to kick off our very first event with a monster movie... because it looks like Monster horror is back! This time, Maggie Gyllenhaal dives straight into the genre with a bold horror-romance reimagining of Bride of Frankenstein. The film feels like a fresh rabbit hole into Mary Shelley’s creation. Honestly, any story from that universe is worth retelling.

The premise is set in 1930s Chicago, the film follows their outlaw romance against a backdrop of societal unrest. A lonely Frankenstein seeks the help of Dr. Euphronius to create a companion. They reinvigorate a murdered young woman… and a Bride is born. So something tells me this Bride is hungry for more than just a little blood and flesh.

The plan this Friday night is to meet for drinks at the Look Dine-In Bar at Tysons at the Boro, so bring your favourite monster stories! Then we’ll head over to Screen 1—I’ll be in Row F11 if you want to join my row. After the film, we’ll regroup, share highlights, and do a Letterboxd review.

Looks like this Bride wasn’t made to stand by her Monster... maybe she’ll steal the show.

Can’t wait to see you there.
Jonny.
