In 1818 Mary Shelley published “Frankenstein; or, the Modern Prometheus.”In the novel, Frankenstein brings a creature to life with a "spark of being." Both scientists influenced “Frankenstein.” Shelley incorporated some of Davy’s writings into her novel, and the 1818 and 1831 prefaces both reference Darwin. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley wrote "Frankenstein" when she was 18 years old.

The new “Lisa Frankenstein,” by Zelda Williams in her directorial debut, hits some of the same notes. Kathryn Newton stars as Lisa Swallows and Cole Sprouse as The Creature in LISA FRANKENSTEIN, a Focus Features release. This is where “Poor Things” and “Lisa Frankenstein” diverge. Bella Baxter in “Poor Things” starts out as a clumsy innocent, but she becomes more knowledgeable and self-confident over time. “Lisa Frankenstein” shows why that’s a loss for all of us — and Lisa is ready to cut up the patriarchy to prove it.

Laya DeLeon Hayes Photo: RLJE Films/Shudder/ALLBlkMary Shelley ’s “Frankenstein” and its latest offspring, “The Angry Black Girl and Her Monster,” are both wellsprings of metaphor and parables of madness. For Victor Frankenstein, the source of crazy was his mother’s death and a resulting God complex; for Vicaria (Laya DeLeon Hayes)—the title “angry girl” known as her neighborhood’s “mad scientist”—it is a family disappearing due to gang violence, drug dealing, predatory policing and a certain black experience that casts the world as out of control. Hence her theory: Death is only a disease. And if it is a disease, she should be able to cure it.
