“Lisa Frankenstein” …From Awesome Digging …to Luxury Living, Licking, & Kissing!

Film Synopsis of “Lisa Frankenstein” → A coming-of-Rage story love story about a teenager (Kathryn Newton) and her crush (Cole Sprouse), who happens to be a corpse! After a set of horrific circumstances bring him back to life, the two embark on a journey to find love, happiness – and a few missing …shall I say it? Yes, body parts!!!

Lisa Frankenstein Searches for Love …But Does It Come from Up Above?

Lisa Frankenstein was very odd – that is obvious because of how she dressed and behaved overall. It’s no wonder she was not very idolized or befriended at school or had a top-rated school or social life. She was a loner, and with her mother dying and her father remarrying a woman who could not stand her – what did she have except herself and an empty cemetery of dead bodies to converse with all the time? Combine those two, and what do you have? Frankenstein indeed. The story of Victor Frankenstein is about a Swiss student of the Natural Sciences who creates an artificial man from pieces of corpses in a cemetery, and the way that the corpse came to be alive in the film is the exact opposite. The best and strong love comes from up above, but for Lisa – hers came from 6 feet under. Do you think that it is possible to love someone that deeply who is beneath the earth, but not deceased, but can also have the power and willingness to change if the love and support are there …waiting for them?

Taffy & Lisa Frankenstein

We find that Taffy is Lisa Frankenstein’s sister by her father marrying her mother, and she loves Lisa and tries to be a positive role model for her and live for her up because she knows that she is struggling with life, and most importantly loves. Taffy is more of the “wild child” and does not affect Lisa at all whatsoever, but once The Creature enters Lisa’s life, he begins to show her what REAL love and care feel and looks like even without talking. Sure, the way that the actor who portrays this role does it in very comical ways is still very romantic and considerate, and that is all that Lisa honestly really years for. She begins to let loose, transform, and become looser and more vibrant thanks to The Creature whom she fell in love with while visiting and cleaning his particular grave at the Cemetery. 

Intuitive Persona/s

Taffy and her mother always went around saying that they were IP’s (intuitive people). But, I think that we all know who the MOST intuitive person was in the entire movie, don’t we? Of course, we do, it was the corpse! Believe it or not, even though he could not utter a single word – it was very symbolic because I know that we have all heard the expression before that “actions speak volumes or louder than words.” And when people show us how much they love and adore us – how do they do that? YES! Exactly. They do it through their actions! That is what The Creature did with Lisa Frankenstein. He showed her through all of his actions how much he meant to her. Isn’t that what love being ALL about?

Lisa Frankenstein Conclusions

I don’t consider this particular film to be a horror/scary film type of movie. Although the name Frankenstein may bring images of creatures, labs, corpses, body parts, etc. to mind, the killing scenes in the movie are rather humorous. I would say that this film is a comedy overall. Although it was mildly entertaining and held my attention, it could have been better. It’s quite weak, and I would recommend renting it from a red box. However, if you choose to see it in theaters, that’s okay too. Everyone has their own free will. Good luck!
