The Running Man & Frankenstein + Fresh Adaptations/Remakes

View descriptionShare

It's another double bill this week. First up, we review Edgar Wright's latest film, The Running Man, which is an adaptation of Stephen King's 1982 dystopian novel of the same name. It stars Glenn Powell, Katy O'Brian and Josh Brolin and is about a man forced to participate in a deadly state-sanctioned game show where contestants are hunted for entertainment. Following that, we discuss if Guillermo del Toro's gothic monster drama, Frankenstein, is a faithful yet fresh reimagining of Mary Shelley’s classic tale. On Take Two, we talk about how adaptations and remakes often get a bad rap - but which ones have actually updated their source material or offered something new?
