Lisa Frankenstein is one of the first upcoming horror movies of 2024, one might wonder just how far down a bloody path the new release will take fans of the genre. As one of the early viewers of Lisa Frankenstein, I can attest Diablo Cody’s return to horror is not at all afraid to go there. When CinemaBlend spoke to the filmmakers about this unique spin on Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, they discussed the movie’s MPAA rating.
