As recommended by Bill, I watched the first half of the new Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein on TV.
And wow! What a treat for the eyes. Clever, lush, big and bold, it's a fabulous production and a worthy entry in Promethian Shelley telly.
Watching Del Toro's sumptuous gothic feast made me think of Aurora monsters, Tim Burton, Bernie Wrightson and the 1970's TV film starring Michael Sarrazin, itself an enfant terrible of evening TV which shocked us all with its decapitation scene. Yuk!
There's even a similarity between Michael Sarrazin and Del Toro's leading man Oscar Isaacs!
Are you watching Frankenstein?
