#based on: strange case of dr jekyll and mr hyde

[ineachretelling]

We wrap up Monster Month 2: The Dead are Rising with our Halloween Monster Mash episode (shhhh it's still technically Spooky Weekend, let us have this), and what else COULD we pick for that in strike free times but 2004's Van Helsing, which much like The Mummy (2017) is a much maligned attempt to reboot the Universal Monsters... but is it good actually?...probably not. But is it fun? Hell yes. Join Jas, River, Callie, Ellie, and Justin as we discuss the joys of monsterfuckery, the issues with a lack of character development, and what a ridiculous roller coaster ride this movie is. This podcast contains swearing and discussions of violence and sexual assault.

#they SERVED! and they SLAYED (via divineandmajesticinone)

VAN HELSING (2004) dir. Stephen Sommers Dracula's three brides: Aleera, Verona and Marishka

[adaptations-polls]

Which version of this do you prefer?

*There's actually multiple film versions that came out in 1920; this is the version starring John Barrymore

**Also released as House of Fright and Jekyll's Inferno

[artemisyates]

Mr Edward Hyde in modern clothing. Apparently my idea of modern is 1992.

People; Omg,,, Hyde is my poor little baby meow meow!

just a little guy who’s done nothing wrong 🥺

WRONG!

People are acting like Hyde wouldn’t punch them in the face, or curse them out for saying that.

Hyde is an asshole, who explicitly stomped on a kid and ignored her screams to go off and do whatever they were doing, and killed a man with hysterical pleasure, and a rush of adrenaline.

And those were the things they got caught for!

What the fuck were the unspoken things they were doing, for Jekyll to say that he was in wonder of his own depravity?

Fucker is a grown ass man!

They’re ugly! With pale, unhealthy looking skin, and hairy, knobbled hands. With a sharp expression, and a displeasing, creepy smile, that raises the hairs on the back of your neck. A husky, broken voice, timid but also bold.

(A contradiction, in and of itself.)

And with a face that makes even the most dry and unemotional of people angry; even to the point of wanting them DEAD!

Hyde is 20 years of repressed emotions finally allowed to let loose.

Yes, he’s short. No, that isn’t a problem for them.

Have you ever met an angry short person? A truly furious person. How about an angry short person who’s murderous? Yes? You have?

How about an angry short person who’s murderous and is dead sure they won’t face any consequences?

How about a freak, that even from a distance, is repulsive. Who hisses, and does not give a fuck about anything or one other than themself.

Call them a baby. I dare you. See what happens to your corpse.

Is he still your meow meow after beating someone unconscious, and laughing insanely?

Is he still your ‘little guy who did nothing wrong’ after he stabs someone? Watches the blood drain from their wound, and leaves them to die alone?

Are they still your ‘silly little guy’ when they whisper terrible things about others into their ears, and watch the ensuing fight with a wide, almost evil smile, and a hysterical cackle.

When they tear the flesh off of someone’s arm, just because they can.

When he dresses in drag, and fucks whoever they can, and spits at people, claws like an animal, and acts horrendously.

Are they still?

(What else do you think he did, over years of time with absolutely no consequences?)

I am alive, some of ocs sketches I drew while I was banned aaaaah I'm happy I'm here again... anyway I was a little sick so there weren't so many drawings...

[electrosweaters-arts]

*GRABS him by the throat* I Will babygirl gothic literature character Henry Jekyll to an unreasonable extent and no one can. stop. me.

Gives him a little comfort with Adam bc they are The Gothlit ship ever and Jekyll is so a guy who needs deep pressure when upset to me

[the-insouciant-scientist]

“I learned to recognise the thorough and primitive duality of man; I saw that, of the two natures that contended in the field of my consciousness, even if I could rightly be said to be either, it was only because I was radically both.”

Welcome to Monster Month 2: The Dead are Rising, and a new world of gods and monsters! For our very first wish episode, as requested by Callie, we are beginning October with a discussion of the much reviled Tom Cruise vehicle disguised as what could've started the Dark Universe franchise, The Mummy (2017). Join Jas, Callie, and newcomer Sabrina as they discuss what went wrong, what's at least a lot of fun, and... to be honest, thirst over Sofia Boutella as Princess Ahmanet, the sexiest mummy alive. We're only a little sorry. This podcast contains swearing and discussions of colonialism, sexual activity, racism, sexism, Scientology, violence, and death.

Not my best but I needed something to submit for May, but here’s Merman Utterson and Jekyll for Mermay! I’ve now finally got more free time to draw more now that college is more or less over.

“What’s your favorite transformation scene in terms of Jekyll and Hyde adaptations?”

Me: The 1931 one.

“But that’s a basic fucking bitch answer.”

Me: Alright, do you want a real answer?

“Yeah.”

Me: The ones in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003) and Mary Reilly (1995).

“…”

Me: Look it up!
