The Hunt (2020)
About this episode
This episode critiques capitalism and class inequality through the lens of the horror film 'The Hunt'.
This is my 67th episode and my theme of the month is EAT THE RICH. "Eat the Rich" horror is a subgenre of horror that critiques capitalism and class inequality by portraying the ultra-wealthy as the enemy. Rather than treating the 1% as merely out-of-touch, these stories present elite privilege as a predatory force built on the exploitation, degradation, and literal destruction of the working class. And you know what, I agree with them. For my real world example, A Swiss hacktivist found a hidden directory and participant profiles in the site's code, exposing over 200 prominent names What We Know About Billionaire Peter Thiel's Secret 'Dialog' Society.
