Rural horror often brings up images of “cannibalistic mutants” hiding out in the woods, mountains, or desert – ready to kill off the outsiders passing through for their next meal. But it is a subgenre that is more expansive than that.In this episode, I will walk through some of my complicated feelings with the subgenre and how it manages to often feature and completely ignore disability connected to its characters.Shoutout to Horror Queers and their fantastic Patreon series on the subject (March
