The Creature holding Lisa's head and looking at her lovingly in Lisa Frankenstein
Summary Zelda Williams' 2024 Lisa Frankenstein was a genre-blending horror-romance-comedy that left many viewers looking for something similar to watch next. Written by award-winning screenwriter Diablo Cody and starring modern horror sweetheart Kathryn Newton, Lisa Frankenstein is the story of Lisa Swallows , a high school outcast who finds love in the form of a zombie. Joining Newton in Lisa Frankenstein's cast is Cole Sprouse, who plays The Creature.
Like Lisa Frankenstein and many other teen horror comedies, Totally Killer is filled with high school murders and bullies. Produced by Amazon MGM, It had a limited theatrical release, instead moving directly to Prime Video. Because of this, the movie was less known than it could have been, especially given its engaging plot and graphic kills.*Availability in US Totally Killer is a 2023 comedy horror film by director Nahnatchka Khan created for Prime Video.
8 Spontaneous Directed By Brian Duffield Another coming-of-age horror comedy, Spontaneous, takes place at a school where students begin to combust mysteriously. The movie is also a love story, as Mara Carlyle and Dylan Hovemeyer begin a romance on a timeline, as, just like Lisa and The Creature, they don't know when their time together will be over. Like Lisa Frankenstein, Spontaneous also ends with the death of a main character, though this movie doesn't allow for zombie resurrections.
Jawbreaker is not technically a horror movie, but instead, it focuses on high school politics and life's fleetingness. Much like Lisa Frankenstein, Jawbreaker thematically represents the sweet innocence of high school girls in contrast with the darkness of death. Initial reception of the film was poor, but it has since become a cult classic.*Availability in US A high school prank goes wrong when three popular girls accidentally kill their friend with a jawbreaker candy.
Like Lisa Frankenstein's satirical take on zombies and '80s movies, The Final Girls plays with horror tropes, creating comedy and absurdity. The film is packed with comedy actors. Both The Final Girls and Lisa Frankenstein are homages to 1980s horror films, honoring traditional movie elements while lampooning the clichés. The Final Girls received generally positive reviews from critics in 2015, though the film remains relatively unknown.
Like Lisa Frankenstein, Freaky combines horror with comedy. The kills are gruesome, while the plot is absurd, amplified by Vaughn and Newton's comedic yet scary performances. Newton nails the role of a ruthless murderer, conducting a plethora of fantastic kills, including in a cryogenic chamber and with a table saw.*Availability in US Freaky is a film directed by Christopher Landon and centers around a young girl in high school that swaps bodies with a deranged serial killer.
