Frankenstein's Monster's Monster, Frankenstein

Some people are going to love the type of comedy in this short film whereas I know others will not understand it nor find it funny,

I was watching this with a friend, I was laughing frequently. If you're not a fan of subtle absurd humour then I wouldn't recommend it, I honestly just found it as a fun half hour to just revel in its absurdity, which is of course it's biggest strength with the stupid twists that make no sense but don't fail to make me laugh.

A half hour rollercoaster of shocking twists and turns! Not to be taken seriously but definitely to be enjoyed.

Tongue in cheek - that's the saying. Not sure if Frankensteins monster actually had a tongue - well a functioning one, like a human being. And I mean in the book. I have to admit I never read it, but I've seen quite a few of the interpretations. And David Harbour starring in this one, is quite funny. While there is some disagreement about his ability to fill in Ron Perlmans Hellboy shoes, I think we can agree his spot on here.

It's short and sweet, or rather funny. It works on quite a few levels, riffing on the "name calling" and other cliches that have been grown over the years. If you are a fan of the genre or the specific "tale", there is much to find here. Kudos to the filmmakers and everyone involved

If you love absurd comedies, you love it. If not... . Because it is an ironic portrait of actors, need of sons to discover the life of father, bad acting and cliches. It is brilliant because the last impression is just the waste of time with a bad short movie. Or the consolation with the presence of Alfred Molina. In fact, is one of necessary kicks to the viewer. To discover the art of actor from different perspective. To rediscover a long tradition of manierist way to perform, rivalries and the meet, not very pleasant, with the past. It is not a great or memorable film. It can be defined as a joke. And it is one. But, in strange manner, it is just an useful films. For laugh, for understand and for the meet. With yourself.

I was surprised by this Netflix One shot, I was going pass it by, as most of Netflix Canada is boring as can be. I really enjoyed the retro silliness of the PBS feel and the ads for London, USA. This, if dry wit and absurdity is not your thing, you will not enjoy. But give it a try it might surprise you.
