Though she’s probably still best known for writing Juno, Diablo Cody’s 2009 horror-comedy Jennifer’s Body has become a bit of a cult item. Recently she returned to the genre for Lisa Frankenstein.
Set in 1989, it follows a goth outcast who enjoys spending her time hanging out in the local cemetery. When a bolt of lightning resurrects a handsome young Victorian man, she takes him in, and the two embark on a murderous journey to find love, happiness… and a few missing body parts.
SFX’s reviewer dug the production design, with its “sherbert-coloured Stepford-perfect suburbia, romantic graveyards crisply lit by moonlight, and gorgeous teenage fantasy sequences that are part Henry Sellick, part Salvador Dali”.
Lisa Frankenstein is available to buy now on 4K, Blu-ray and DVD. Thanks to Mediumrare we have five Blu-ray copies up for grabs. To put your name in the hat for the chance to win one, simply answer the question below.
