This is my 59th episode and my theme of the month is Good for Her February. Where the trauma and torment women, children, and men go through doesn’t have to end at her suffering. It might be a fantasy to get revenge in the way the movies show it but it’s a cathartic escape from the reality we live in when justice is rare and even when it is prosecuted the consequences rarely fit the crime.Help is available:National Sexual Assault Hotline: Available 24 hours 1-800-656-4673https://rainn.org/help-and-healing/hotline/https://www.nsvrc.org/find-help/Guest:Sarah Spurlock - host of Final Girls podcast that dives deep into the world of horror by examining one iconic Final Girl per episode.https://www.final-girls.comResources:https://repository.flsouthern.edu/server/api/core/bitstreams/2f111023-7af0-44c8-ace2-9c3681c82173/contentMen, Women, and Chainsaws by Carol J.

This is my 58th episode and my theme of the month is Justice in January. Where black horror takes revenge and teaches us lessons that colonizers would like us to forget. In today’s movie, we are taking a look at the projects and how communities like Cabrini-Green are built into a myth. A myth about a group of people, where anyone outside of Cabrini-Green is afraid to even drive past it. This fear isn’t fueled by an urban legend though, it’s brought on by racism, segregation, and poverty. Today I will be covering the 1992 film The Candyman.

This is my 57th episode and I will be covering the 1991 classic horror film The People Under the Stair by Wes Craven.My theme of the month is Justice in January. Where black horror takes revenge and teaches us lessons that colonizers would like us to forget. In today’s movie, a family is being evicted, and they are the last ones in a building that is set to be torn down to build new condominiums with “nice clean people” in there. The film pits the impoverished Fool and his family against wealthy landlords who exploit tenants, hoard wealth, and mercilessly defend their property. This mirrors real-world class tensions and critiques of early-1990s capitalist policies that never ended and only got worse.Guest:randall_rydell_russell3R Entertainmenthttps://www.instagram.com/randall_rydell_russell?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==https://youtube.com/@tripl3r259?si=h8c0DLyS1JzBJVlZ Sources:https://www.wescraven.com/film/the-people-under-the-stairs/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_People_Under_the_Stairshttps://bloody-disgusting.com/editorials/3475241/see-no-evil-prescience-people-stairs/https://screenrant.com/the-people-under-the-stairs-know-about-the-wes-craven-film/https://classic-horror.com/reviews/people_under_the_stairs_1991.htmlhttps://www.whatsafterthemovie.com/summary/the-people-under-the-stairs

This is my 55th episode and my theme of the month is A Very Corporate Christmas. With movies about the horrors of consumerism and how profit over people has led to deaths through poisoning and addiction. American corporations were feeding people radioactive water, cocaine, morphine, industrial bleach, arsenic, and embalming fluid. All while calling it “healthy”. The FDA exists because consumerism killed people and companies knew it.

This is my 54th episode and my theme of the month is Remember November. I am covering horror movies with representations of indigenous people. The film I'm covering today has an imperfect representation of the Wendigo legend from Algonquian cultures (notably Cree and Anishinaabe). The film takes place in 1847 during the Mexican American War and cannibalism is used as a metaphor for colonialism.
