Episode Description from the Publisher

Frankenstein is dead! Or is he? In this episode, “The Invisible Dan” and “Monster Mike” dissect all the brain-swapping mayhem in Hammer’s first Frankenstein sequel! Join them as they discuss the return of the Hammer dream team: Terence Fisher, Jimmy Sangster and Peter Cushing, plus the handsome new “monster” played by Michael Gwynn; the challenges of writing a follow-up to a film that beheaded its protagonist; more cost-cutting measures, including repurposing some of the Dracula sets; Hammer’s unproduced Frankenstein TV series; more James Bond connections; and so much more!
