FEMALE MONSTERS 09 • The Bride (1985) + Frankenhooker (1990)

We're joined by writer, podcaster and comedian Jourdain Searles to talk about The Bride (1985) and exploitation horror-comedy Frankenhooker (1990). We touch on the amazing performance by Jennifer Beales, Sting as a Frankenstein softboi, accidental winking at key societal issues, the absolute hilarity of 'supercrack', and justice for Zorro.
