If you want a Frankenstein-style story that explores women's self-determination with some truly breath-taking performances and cinematography, look no further than Yorgos Lanthimos's Poor Things.
If you want something more comedic, give Lisa Frankenstein a try. This one didn't see much action on release, but it's definitely deserving of a re-evaluation. It's genuinely funny, and sicker than you think.
Want a similar story, but with more of a robotic angle instead of a reanimated one? Companion should be your first stop. This one also has some truly laugh-out-loud moments, but it's also got something interesting to say as a film, so win/win.
Crave more of the musical aspect, but don't mind a different kind of monster at the forefront? The Lure gives a fresh spin on The Little Mermaid and pushes the well-known story into both camp and horror territory.
Have a craving to go low-brow and Gothic? Lady Frankenstein has got you covered with Euro-horror sleaze!
