Lisa Frankenstein: New Trailer And Images Tease A Bloody Romance
Focus Features has released a new trailer and images from Lisa Frankenstein, giving us a better idea of what this film will be about.
Article Summary
- New trailer and images for Lisa Frankenstein tease a darkly whimsical love story.
- The horror-comedy by Diablo Cody debuts ahead of Valentine's Day, February 9, 2024.
- Zelda Williams tackles her feature directorial debut with a star-studded cast.
- Carla Gugino shines in high-quality stills among new scenes revealed in the trailer.
Some fun movies are set to come out in February, and not all of them are connected to established IPs or franchises. Well, Lisa Frankenstein is, but only in the sense that it draws inspiration from the story that is baked into the DNA of most of the horror genre and takes it in a different direction. So far, the marketing for this film hasn't shown us much about the story, but Focus Features has dropped a new trailer today with a ton of new footage that gives us a much better idea of what we're in for. It's so good to see Diablo Cody returning to horror now that the culture has caught up and realized Jennifer's Body ruled. We also have two new behind-the-scenes images featuring director Zelda Williams and four new images from the movie itself, including a high-quality still of the horror icon Carla Gugino.
