The Bride of Frankenstein!
My longer review on the podcast from a couple years ago. Please get me up! 🙏 I can’t wait to host.
Can I call this charming? A friend who is mentally disabled is cute in a way. We have the protagonist, the monster, We se the monster in this early incarnation desiring a friend. The mad scientist has grand plans. We get to see the monster develop language. We also ss he is sort of capable of making another human happy. I’m thinking of the blind man who gives him food and shelter to heal. In this epic blockbuster horror film, we see a human undead monster and he’s still got the drives for companionship.</p>It has the usual mob trying to kill the monster. Through this exciting segment of about 1/2 way we see him as a flawed, even brain damaged human. I couldn’t help but feel sorrow for the monster. Bela Lugosi is a prefect actor for this human creature (or is it?). Some of my favorite scenes are the ones with the blind man. They are kindred spirits in that each wants a friend. I got the impression one would get watching a toddler find something shiny and becoming enraptured with it.
Putting the monster through torture is what had me glued to the screen. I’m not into torture but I find myself relating with the yearning, longing, and even lusting after a woman or otherwise partner. They are such fine and wonderful creatures those partners. I also related with the block of communication that is present throughout. Did you know the Bible teaches the Tower of Babel was why God confused language for all humankind. It tried to be higher than God so God humbled them. The monster illustrates how horrible it would be to not be able to communicate.
There are not many scenes of the actual author Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. The film however does open with she and Lord Byron commenting on the lovely ghastly storm outside. We see clearly based on the title and the plot, she is to be made into a female monster, for the creature. I love the way they weaved the real life couple into this. Is raises the verisimilitude and leaves us actually wanting to see them together.
Unfortunately we don’t see much of the female. The latter portion of the film is where we see only her transformation but not much detail. She looks just plain freaky, I like that. I get from her character that she too is unable to communicate. She is quicker moving than the monster. In conclusion, this is to date one of my favorite classic series films. I really enjoy the writing, especially the writing of Byron and Shelley, The film is a delightful hodgepodge of suspenseful orchestra music and top shelf acting. The result is a mind ride to understand why we should never bring the dead back to life. This is an incredibly atmospheric class A horror film. I can give it no lower than a 10/10.
Watch this space for details how to get me up straight away … that’s right, I’ll tell you how to GET ME UP babe. I wanna weeeeen!

Ten Examples Of Apologies That Validate The Other
- I had a lot going on that day, I appreciate your understanding and “getting” that.
- With no one to vent to, sometimes you get the buildup, its just your proximity to me babe.
- Even though I know the news is created to inflame me about Trump, I still let it do its worst. That’s dumb of me. I’m sorry.
- I feel like we don’t communicate so I inadvertently compensate for that sometimes by overcommunicating sometimes, which reveals my need to communicate but I’m sorry, I’ll find other venting avenues, like meditation.
- Because of how I am, I need a schedule every hour, every day. When I don’t take the time, everybody is fair game and you happened to be there. I’m sorry. It’s a daily struggle sometimes.
- That annoying blunder was totally my fault but I have taken steps to ensure it will not happen again, I’m sorry for any inconvenience it caused you.
- I’m just sorry. That wasn’t the higher self I try to be. I’d love to have another chance.
- I was drowning in a sea of “shoulds” when all I “should” do in my life is practice self-love.
- I forgot that everything I need is within me.
- I was on my “man period.” (Maybe not this last one but with the right audience, it will work).
peace out.

Happy Sunday to all my Beaches and Horrors out there! Today I offer you a new podcast episode, about 30 mins long as they have been as of late.
In this one, I take on chapter one of the original book. I did “Call of The Wild” this way, doing an episode on each chapter and a culminating episode with guests where I reviewed the modern film. I figure I’ll repeat that with this fucken awesome dime store novel. Wanna be on the final? Hit me up. I got stories of my beaches and horrors. Meet me and them, always for free at RileyOnFilm.com
Love and sexual content aplenty here! (I’m still single, Doh!)

Suburban Desert Sky We Say Is Up?
Early faith refers to the heavens as “up above” but the direction is relative. To a Chinaman, for example, these heavens I now see are are down below his feet and the dirt on the other side of the globe, etc. We are riding a spinning sphere. Paul and the gang didn’t know that yet.
Makes you wonder what else they elaborated on and explained imperfectly. And what we blindly accept as gospel truth today
In one of the gospels in scripture it says women should have their heads covered for the sake of Angels in our midst. That was explained to me by a relative authority at Calvary Chapel when I used to go there as referring to the prostitutes that had become Christians. Paul acknowledges they had the freedom “in Christ” to not cover their heads but he was telling them to cover their heads for the sake of the onlookers who had not yet been baptized, or converted you know.
It’s bad optics.
That’s what Angels actually means, according to the Pastor, so they don’t think Christianity is just a bunch of sluts and whores. Make sure Wonder what angels are anyway.
I’m never going to give up my illusion of my guardian angel because he’s me. To me this could be one of the early examples in scripture of religious folk giving a shit what other people think.
I almost got sucked into a full-on Christian call that’s been around for probably 40-50 years called the assembly. I was going to move into what’s called a shepherding home. Mostly cuz I was lonely. Good thing my dad alerted me to the weirdness of what they were talking about and I didn’t get into it.
I have reasons for my reticence about Christianity.
If interested why I feel I have earned the authority to think and write about Christianity, check out my spiritual resume, of sorts, I made for the angels in my midst.
Stop The Paranoia, Day
Okay so confession time. This is something that’s been happening to me lately a lot. I’ve been meaning to write about it, because when I write about it I pay attention to it it’s just the life of a blogger you wouldn’t know, most likely.
I’ll be missing my wallet say for example because lazy ass me didn’t put it in the drawer where it belongs. So I jump to Alzheimer’s suspicion. Then I jump to child suspicion: child stole it suspicion. And this doesn’t just happen at home this happens everywhere I go if I’m missing something I go right to blaming someone and every time I find it.
Let me repeat that: every time I feel paranoia that someone stole my s*** I find it.
So the next time I can’t find something I’m going to sit down and meditate or I’m going to forget the f*** about it because it’s going to turn up and I’m going to stop the paranoia the judging and the blaming. ✌️
Fuck Fuck Can’t Ignore The Pain

Crackle O’ The Wind
09/02/2024 – “All Caught Up’ Homeshow – 1 of 4 songs I’m posting from the show
Lyrics: A little child inside Hears owls hoot The radiant evening’s soon Games are played Streetlight Approved In the Crackle of the Wind A little Raven head steps up to the stool to see the moon from a ragged room A night dress is hemmed at a mother’s spool In the Crackle of the Wind And I can hear the wind sing Way Oh Way Oh A song is played in some dark room Someone’s heart is deeply moved Season’s change their different hues in the Crackle of the Wind And I can hear the wind sing Way Oh Way Oh
