72. The Bride of Frankenstein with special guest Mitchell Ralston

Published: Oct. 30, 2020, 4 a.m.

To a new world of gods and monsters! We watched The Bride of Frankenstein (1935) with our good friend Mitchell Ralston and we forever Stan Elsa Lanchester as \u201cThe Monster\u2019s Mate.\u201d We take a trip through the \u201cUniversal Classic Monsters\u201dcatalogue and find out what makes this entry so queer. Mincing mad scientists, screeching hausfraus and ersatz domestic partnerships fill this gothic masterpiece, but it\u2019s Lanchester\u2019s brief performance that cements this movie in queer cinema history.\xa0 The Bride did more for gays, goths and cholas with nothing more than 5 minutes of screen time, a shake and go wig and an eyebrow pencil than any of us could muster in a lifetime.\xa0 They may belong dead but that face will live forever.
