Popaganda Episode: Oh the Horror!

popaganda

 

Horror films are fertile ground for conversations about gender, fear, and body fluids. On this show, writer Sarah Marshall lays out her favorite underrated horror heroines, we meet up with a “final girl” brunch club at Brooklyn's Nitehawk Cinema, and the ladies of Crimson Wave discuss the irony that even gore-fest films seem to fear the sight of menstrual blood. Plus: a conversation about alien abduction with Study Group Comics editor Shanna Matuszak.

FINAL GIRL BRUNCH CLUB

CRIMSON WAVE ON CARRIE


I recorded the introduction to this show at the Witch's Castle in Portland. I describe at length how creepy it is, so here are a couple photos of me recording in the spooky place.
