Episode 74 - Haunted Summer (1988)



For the last movie of 1988, we cover an interesting idea for a movie. In this period drama, Percy and Mary Shelley visit Lord Byron in an infamous meeting of the minds. For those that know about these figures, there is much to mine from this situation, the last time any of the three would meet in this world. What would these famous poets and storytellers talk about? The possibilities are endless.

Unfortunately the movie wastes some good performances and ideas on a story that never comes together to be more than the sum of its parts. There is not much to it outside of the surface idea. The entire project feels under-cooked. To understand our disappointment be sure to listen to the episode above.

Randy's Score: 1/5
