6 Things I Learned from the Lisa Frankenstein Commentary

We don’t get movies like Lisa Franeknstein often, which is a shame because it’s endlessly charming yet delightfully twisted. While it disappointed at the box office, it has "cult classic" written all over it.

The coming-of-age horror-comedy is out today on Blu-ray and DVD. Among the special features is an audio commentary by Zelda Williams. Here are 6 things I learned…

1. Catch Me If You Can inspired the opening credit sequence.

The opening credit sequence, which briefly depicts the Creature's love story from his previous life in the style of Victorian shadow box art, was inspired by Catch Me If You Can.

"We wanted to do something interesting with the credits in this bit. I was really inspired by Catch Me If You Can, which I thought the opening credits were particularly interesting and helped establish the story before we ever got to it. And because Creature doesn't speak this whole movie, I wanted an opportunity to show what his life would have been like."

2. The film was originally intended to be rated R.

Although Lisa Frankenstein pushes the PG-13 rating as far as it can go, it was originally intended to be a hard R. Williams cites the party scene, in which Lisa originally smoked a laced joint rather than drinking a PCP cocktail, as a difficult revision.

"This is where stuff got a little complicated when we were going from R-rated to PG-13. Originally there was a coated joint they were passing around. This is one of the only scenes that I'm not sure I'm as fond of in comparison to the joint stuff. Most of the rest of the changes were fine, but this one I find very strange. It's just a very different reaction and interaction than what used to be there. However, these are the things that happen when making a movie."

3. Creature is an homage to Day of the Dead's Bub.

Not only Lisa is seen watching George A. Romero's Day of the Dead in the film, but the Creature is an homage to its iconic zombie, Bub.

"Creature for me is definitely an homage to Buster Keaton, but he's also an homage to the zombie you just saw on screen, Bub, who was in Day of the Dead, a Romero movie that I'm very fond of. It was an incredibly emotive and a very intelligent zombie and ended up getting revenge against the asshole in the movie. It was one of my favorite monsters ever made, so when I could put that on screen during the movie, it made me very happy."

4. Zelda hid a tribute to her father, Robin Williams.

Williams is the daughter of Robin Williams, and she included his 1983 comedy album, Throbbing Python of Love, among the records scattered on the floor in Lisa's living room.

"Oh, there's Dad! We used one of Dad's vinyl albums because we had to scatter some across the floor." She refers to it as "a little, mini Easter Egg for me."

5. The police officers are named after John Waters.

The police officers in the film are Officer John (played by Walker Babington) and Officer Waters (Sylvia Grace Crim) — named on a whim in honor of cult filmmaker, John Waters.

"They asked me to name the cops, because obviously they needed to have name tags, so I named them Officer John and Officer Waters." She thought no one would notice since they're so small, but a viewer pointed it out at a test screening.

6. The film is sprinkled with movie references.

Williams wore her influences on her sleeve with her directorial debut, and she pointed out several references on the commentary:

A Trip to the Moon (clip featured in Lisa's surreal dream sequence)

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (stylistic inspiration on the dream sequence)

Weird Science (the party scene)

Suspiria (red lighting during drug sequence)

My Boyfriend's Back (camera shot from inside a grave looking up at characters)

Kill Bill (weapon point-of-view shot)

E.T. (a boy on a bike — played by Diablo Cody's son — at the end)

Notting Hill (reading together on a bench at the end)

Lisa Frankenstein is available now on Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital via Universal.

I think I secretly wanted this to be 70% comedy. :)

(Hopefully by this point you’ve finished all 92 minutes of 'Strange Weather’, the kind of person who isn’t bothered by spoilers, or are just deciding if you still want to keep watching.)

Even if this film didn’t have the opening scene that ‘Mission: Impossible III’ had, it managed to get my attention when it opened with besties Darcy and Byrd. Well...it opened with Darcy first about to do some ‘gray area’ gardening then was followed by a cheeky conversation about ‘unethical roses’.

And that was enough for me to go: ‘Ohhhh...this is going to be good!’

Unfortunately...that thought got lost somewhere as the film didn’t have a memorable name (maybe in time...It’ll feel ‘right’?), and even if I probably had it in my list...the name or the featured image really didn’t call out to me.

I only found it again when I was going through my Netflix list and realised it was the film I had been looking for awhile now.

And...back to that (sort of) hacking scene: when I rewatched it...I noticed that there was actually a hint when Byrd took a moment to guess what password Walker would have used

PS: Yes...you’ll be hearing this a lot from me...and maybe if enough vocalise a desire for a chance....the bigwigs up in Netflix HQ might see the benefits of implementing an updated algorithm. It takes about a month to go rate all titles, because if it isn’t done...it’s likely that the stuff that I am meant to discover...would end up...undiscovered.

(I would have said that it takes a month if you don’t have any of your Netflix data..meaning you forgot to renew your subscription before it was deleted ---- or a new user. Now? I think it’ll take maybe two or three. I still have my data and I still haven’t finished rating all titles. It is sad that the reality is that I would probably spend 90% of my time rating titles rather than watching them.)

Possible solution? 5 minute total watching time for each title. Because that’s all I need to find out if it’s something I would like to keep watching. And to prevent abuse...there’s a 2 hour waiting time to watch another five minutes (if returning to the same title). If that happens...I can just rate when my subscription is inactive...and once I’ve resubscribed....the recommendations, new titles, and my list....are closer to what I would want to watch

PPS: How’s that I thought that Clayton’s name was Clyde!? :/ It took me noticing the IMDB credits....and...the closing credits to confirm.

Note to parents: You may want to watch this one first on your own before fully deciding which parts are you going to be okay with letting your kids see.

--------

HIGHLIGHT:

INT. BAR - NIGHT

DARCEY is in her own world, cigarette in hand. Mourning what could have been. CLAYTON spots her and approaches.

CLAYTON Hey.

DARCY gives him a glance. No need to really look. She knows who the voice belongs to. She takes another swig of her drink.

CLAYTON Last time I saw that look on your face, it was the night that you broke that menu board over some guy's head when he grabbed your ass when you set down his meatloaf.

She's too far gone to laugh...or even recognise that it was a joke.

CLAYTON I was in the stock room minding my own business, and I heard 'cr-ack'.

He gives her a look. Nope...no one there still.

CLAYTON Cleaved it clean in two.

A nod/grunt from the smoker. So small that it might not have happened.

CLAYTON glances at her again.

DARCY's eyes are still vacant.

CLAYTON Darcy? If you didn't want to see me, what you come in here for?

DARCY It's good to get out of the house sometimes.

He nods.

She stares at her cigarette.

CLAYTON Byrd told me you're worried about your job.

DARCY Town crier.

DARCY motions for a drink refill to the bartender.

CLAYTON Are you going to quit being cryptic or what?

My verdict of the film: 8/10

Link to the timestamp commentary: None (I could have done one for this couldn’t I?)

rules: pick 5 shows, then answer the following questions. don’t cheat. tag some people.

Thanks for tagging me, @itsjacobperalta!

Jessica Jones

Westworld

Peaky Blinders

Sanditon

Fleabag

who is your favorite character in 2? Maeve!

who is your least favorite character in 1? Dorothy Walker.

what is your favorite episode of 4? Episode 7. Esther and Babington!!!

what is your favorite season of 5? There are only two to choose from and IT’S SO DIFFICULT. Ah! I gotta throw the Hot Priest over for season 1.

who is your favorite couple in 3? Well, it WAS Polly and Aberama. Thanks a lot, s5e6.

who is your favorite couple in 2? Maeve and Hector, if I must choose, but I find I root more for individuals in this show. Alliances are fickle when you’re in the fake Wild West!

what is your favorite episode of 1? Season 1 episode 13: “AKA Smile.”

what is your favorite episode of 5? Season 2 episode 4. Not for the confessional scene (the most unexpectedly erotic moment in TV history? possibly), but for the way Fleabag talks to Boo about her grief following the death of her mother. Out of the entire series, this is the scene I think about all. The. Time.

what is your favorite season of 2? I haven’t watched any of season 3 yet, so I’ll say season 1.

how long have you watched 1? I started watching season 1 a couple of years after it premiered, so many 2017 or early 2018. Not sure! Sadly, there won’t be any more beyond season 3.

how did you become interested in 3? Gifs on Tumblr! Weirdly, it wasn’t that I saw anything about the show that looked especially interesting, I more thought, “I’m seeing this all the time and I have no idea what it’s about.” I watched a trailer, liked that, started watching the show, and ended up binge-watching the first four seasons, then the fifth when it started soon after. I absolutely love it.

who is your favorite actor in 4? Charlotte Spencer. Obsessed with her portrayal of Esther Denham. I think she completely steals the show from the intended heroine.

which do you prefer, 1, 2, or 5? Fuck. Those are my three faves on the list haha I’ll say Fleabag, but it’s a very, very narrow decision.

which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3? Peaky Blinders, simply because there are more episodes.

if you could be anyone from 4, who would you be? How many times am I going to answer “Esther”? It’s Esther. Good character growth, a love interest who isn’t a complete dickhead, and financial stability (pretty big deal for a woman at the time). Girl’s got it all.

would a crossover between 3 and 4 work? Peaky Blinders and Sanditon? The combination could’ve been worse! They’re both historical and both set in England, but not in the same century. It would have to be the descendants of Sanditon characters encountering the Peaky Blinders. Or some of the Blinders are descended from Sanditon characters! It could work. Bit unfortunate that the largely carefree beach-goers turn into murderous gangsters, but c’est la vie.

pair two characters in 1 who would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple? Trish and Jeri. I feel like they’re two sides of the same power-hungry coin.

overall, which show has the better storyline, 3 or 5? As great as Peaky Blinders is, I think Fleabag’s hard to beat in most categories. The storyline’s really just her understanding of, acceptance of, and respect for herself. The amount that was accomplished in the world’s most perfect 12 episodes is incredible.

which has better theme music, 2 or 4? I LOVE Westworld’s theme. Ramin Djawadi is amazing.

Jaaga Creative Commons in Bangalore, India- 2010 I led a design team to design, and then stayed around to build, this vertical, hydroponic, reversible garden on swiveling panels, and adjoining rooftop food garden/lawn in downtown Bangalore, India. Was quite an engineering feat for lil’ ole me 😉 Artwork on reverse side by old friend Walker Babington.
