Lisa Frankenstein is a quirky spin on Mary Shelley’s popular classic novel, “Frankenstein”, which tells the story of a high school student, Lisa Swallows (Kathryn Newton), and a reanimated Victorian corpse (Cole Sprouse) who embark on a murderous journey to find love, happiness, and a few missing body parts, according to the film’s synopsis.
Liza plays the role of Taffy, the cheerleader stepsister of Lisa Swallows.
The film is currently showing in local cinemas.
