Frances Stein is an interesting take on the mad scientist trope, blending horror with that peculiar charm you find in indie films. The atmosphere is thick with dread, and the pacing is a deliberate build-up that keeps you engaged, even when it dips into some familiar territory. What stands out are the practical effects; they have a rawness that adds to the film's unsettling vibe. There’s a sense of DIY passion behind it, which is something you don’t see as much in bigger productions. The performances are a mixed bag, with some actors really digging into their roles, while others feel a bit off. Still, it carves out its own space in the genre, for sure.
