The Alchemical Wedding in “1313: Frankenqueen" - Paul Ferguson - 09-27-2025

"1313: Frankenqueen is a film that dives deep into the themes of resurrection, ambition, and the consequences of tampering with the natural order. While the movie is a pastiche of gothic horror tropes and B-movie sensibilities, at its heart lies a powerful symbolic representation – the Alchemical Wedding. This concept, a core element in alchemical philosophy, isn’t just a fleeting plot device; it’s a central metaphor that illuminates the characters’ motivations, the film’s overarching narrative, and its ultimate commentary on hubris and creation."
