253. Freckled Max and the Spooks (1987) dir. Juraj Jakubisko
Anthony is back with another Tubi deep dive and this is a weird one! What happens when you adapt a novel into a TV mini-series, and then you hack that TV series down into a 100 minute long feature film? Surely a lot gets lost along the way, but if the story is fun enough, maybe it will still work. And that seems to be the case with Frankenstein's Aunt, although Anthony has not been able to track down the full mini-series for comparison. Join him as he discusses children's media that feels slightly unsafe, big tiddy ship mastheads, and Frankenstein's fire and water elementals?
