Frankenstein Complex

Happy Halloween, creeps and creature-lovers! In this haunted holiday episode of Get Doc’d, your ghoulishly good hosts dig up The Frankenstein Complex—the monstrously fun documentary about the brilliant weirdos behind cinema’s greatest creatures. Think Rick Baker, Rob Bottin, Guillermo del Toro, and a whole lot of slime, sweat, and foam rubber.

We’re talking practical effects legends who handcrafted horror icons using nothing but latex, animatronics, and pure monster-loving madness. From werewolf transformations to bug-eyed aliens, these mad geniuses built the nightmares that haunted our childhoods—long before CGI tried to erase their beautifully grotesque art.

Join us as we celebrate the monsters, mishaps, melted faces, and flaming puppets that made movie magic feel real—and hilariously dangerous. It’s a spook-tacular romp through creature-feature history, with all the blood, guts, and goo you could ask for (but you won’t have to clean it up).

So toss on a costume, light that jack-o’-lantern, and tune in for a fang-tastic Halloween special that’s equal parts love letter and monster mash.
