‘Lisa Frankenstein’ Totally Rad or Lame? | Review by Chloe James

At this point, I’m pretty sick of the haters who claim a certain generation’s love of nostalgia is “cringe.”  Like I get it, over the past decade, I’ll admit they milked our yearning to return to the happier days of the 80s-00s a little too hard. Between the love letter to all things 80’s shows […]

I love horror. Anyone who knows ME, knows THAT. Does it mean it revolves around the sun of my entire existence?
