History YMMV / LisaFrankenstein

* EnsembleDarkHorse: Taffy gets substantial amount of appreciation for breaking AlphaBitch/[[BigBrotherBully Big Sister Bully]] tropes, and being quite protective and supportive towards Lisa.

* SpecialEffectsFailure: Once Doug's hand is attached to The Creature, it's clearly just Cole Sprouse's hand.

* HilariousInHindsight: Although it's most likely unintentional, the choice of background music -- "On the Wings of Love" by Jeffrey Osborne -- when the Creature [[spoiler:chops off Michael's penis as Taffy (Soberano) watches in horror]] can be absolutely hilarious if you know Creator/LizaSoberano's history.[[note]]Soberano was one-half of [[PortmanteauCoupleName [=LizQuen=]]], a "love team" with her real-life partner Enrique Gil.

Many Filipinos hate on her and express doubt that she will get anywhere in Hollywood.
