After the success of his audacious 1992 hit BRAM STOKER'S DRACULA, Francis Ford Coppola decided to produce a follow up that would be a similarly lavish, and more accurate, interpretation of a classic horror tale. The result is MARY SHELLEY'S FRANKENSTEIN, an ornate and operatic new version of the famous tale directed by and starring Kenneth Branagh, with Robert DeNiro as the monster. Legendary story? Two of the world's finest actors? What could go wrong? Turns out a quite a bit; we'll get into the film's tortured production and it's legacy, and then address another shambling monster: the SNES game adaptation!

Step right up for the goofy carnage of 1988 cult film KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE! Featuring enough inventive practical effects and circus-based humor to make up for a general lack of story, this slow-growing favorite has become a Halloween staple, and has inspired a brand-new asymmetric multiplayer horror game from the makers of FRIDAY THE 13th!

We're kicking off our annual Horror Movie Month, and tackling our oldest movie yet, with the iconic 1922 not-quite-Dracula story NOSFERATU! This masterwork of German expressionism established an iconic take on the vampire mythos, but does this weatherbeaten silent film still hold up for modern audiences? We'll dig into it as well as explore two very different games: a 1995 SNES adventure, and a 2003 first-person shooter.

Strap on your stilsuits and get ready to travel to the desert world of Arakis as we cover the various adaptations of DUNE! We're focusing mostly on Denis Villeneuve's sprawling 2021 epic, which finally seemed to crack how to adapt Frank Herbert's seminal sci-fi novel, after multiple failed attempts. Then, we're talking about a landmark early RTS game based on the franchise, and the recent release DUNE: AWAKENING, which just hit consoles this week!

The classic whodunit genre gets a new shot of life with Rian Johnson's giddy 2019 treat KNIVES OUT!
