Have you seen the new Frankenstein yet? Def more of an adaptation than a faithful retelling, but done with Del Toro's stylistic flair, a visual feast! Loved it, and Elordi's performance was a highlight, a stunning monster.
Here's my linocut rendition of the mad scientist himself Victor Frankenstein

Mabs Drawlloween Club Day 29: UFO
So who watched Alien Earth?! I absolutely loved it, possibly the best thing to happen in the franchise in a long time. I hope they do a season two! In the meantime here's my little ode to the original with a xeno riding the nostromo like a kids pay per ride machine.
