Bodies of Horror: Episode 83 - 'The Advent Calendar'...

Anatomy of a Scream Pod Squad ·

2024/12/24

For the final episode of 2024, Nichole is going seasonal with 2021’s French horror film, The Advent Calendar - a film that mixes fairy tale or parable vibes with the tried and true enchanted/evil object (think a Monkey’s Paw type story, but make it Christmas!) There are time-tested tropes around disability and disabled characters, but the film gives breathing space to encourage reflection on the inner conflict of internalized ableism and the battle with self-doubt that comes with being employed and

2024/12/17

Gena, Jenn, and Joe close out another year of White Ladies in Crisis with a look at Quebecois thriller Red Rooms (2023).The Pascal Plante thriller features an unknowable female protagonist (is she a sadist? A sociopath? A Lisbeth Salander-type vigilante?) and considers society's macabre fascination with true crime. It's cold, clinical and kinda fantastic!Plus: praise for lead Juliette Gariépy, the long take opening, a stunning Bitcoin conversion, and why we don't need an "ending explained"

Bodies of Horror: Episode 81 - 'The Visit' (2015)

Anatomy of a Scream Pod Squad ·

2024/11/26

For this episode, Nichole is going into M. Night Shyamalan territory with 2015’s The Visit. Seen as a return to form after a string of films not well-received, this film hits a lot of high notes but does something we have come to talk a bit about here on the pod: the intersection of ableism and ageism at the heart of the old people are creepy trope.Additional Reading/Research:> AACY – American Association of Caregiving Youth> Lighting Your Way: Managing Dementia Symptoms for CaregiversWant to

Bodies of Horror: Episode 80 - The Front Room (2024)

Anatomy of a Scream Pod Squad ·

2024/11/12

November is National Family caregivers Month and, for better or worse, The Front Room (2024) has quite a bit to say about caregiving (the title is a reference to a bedroom in the house reserved for an older loved one when they move in for additional care). While the film delves into harmful tropes, it also puts some aspects of caregiving that we don't often talk about in the spotlight and there's merit in discussing them.Additional Reading/Research:> 2024 National Family Caregivers Month>

Terry and Joe are back with their first Cronenberg title of the season and...it's not great.Spider (2002) has an intriguing premise and a flawed execution.
