Monster: It’s too bad you conked out
Narrative
After her life falls apart, soft-spoken actress Laura Franco finds her voice again when she meets a terrifying, yet weirdly charming Monster living in her closet. A romantic-comedy-horror film about falling in love with your inner rage.. Filmed at The Ritz and mostly in New Jersey.
I have this pretty neat monster routine I do now
I think you’d find it to be very, well, scary.. Referenced in Amanda the Jedi Show: The BEST and Weirdest Movies you (mostly) Haven't Seen Yet | Love Lies Bleeding (2024). This film could have been as great as the performances of Melissa and Tommy.
The wardrobe and makeup were fantastic
Alas, the empowering rise of the once sickly Laura is derailed by laziness and a cliche trope. The story, while a bit overdone, was unique enough to captivate…until…my theater audibly approached the horrendous scene which undoes all the meaningful character development. Why?
For now, I’ll go rewatch "Lisa Frankenstein"
I feel a screen test could have easily remedied this and saved what could have been. The conclusion, while vaguely "triumphant," falters and also fittingly misses its own ovation. I wish I could agree with the in-film audience, but I just wasn’t "in to it."Rework the lazy trope scene and rewrite the finale, and this actually could have been a decent dark comedy romance.
