Our Terrifying First Look at Jacob Elordi in Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Frankenstein’ Is Here

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-12-24 21:00:12

Much like Frankenstein’s monster itself, the monster at the center of Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein is a mash-up of inspirations. There’s Boris Karloff, the original and most famous Frankenstein. There’s artist Bernie Wrightson, whose illustrations of the character greatly impacted del Toro. There’s Mary Shelley, of course, whose novel the film is based on. And then there’s make-up artist Mike Hill and the actor under that make-up, Jacob Elordi, who you see above in the first official image

In this post I will make the case for the concept of a “runtime resizable struct” in Zig. I will then design an API by exploiting Zig’s powerful comptime functionality. If you want to skip straight to the implementation, a minimal proof of concept is available as a package on GitHub. Zig has support for many kinds of collection types in its standard library.

A Creepy Corn Maze Awaits at the ‘Clown in a Cornfield’ Activation

Clown in a Cornfield is a million-dollar title—so eerie, so evocative, and so perfectly descriptive of Eli Craig‘s horror movie, which hit theaters earlier this year. It’s headed to Shudder and AMC+ August 8, but even if you’ve been waiting to catch it on streaming, there’s much to scream about with its San Diego Comic-Con immersive experience. Why?
