Suspiria (1977 & 2018): Ritual, Rebirth, and the Horror of Creation 03.08.2026 3:49:00

Two visions of witchcraft and womanhood: one drenched in neon nightmare; the other in bone and blood, both wrestling with the power and terror of transformation. In a special Double Feature episode, Charlotte and guest Forrest contemplate the feminist and cosmic implications of this classic movie and its "reimagining".

The Family I Had (2017) - Monsters, Mothers, and Mental Illness 08.05.2026 2:43:56

Lamb (2015) - Innocence, Control, and the Need to Be Loved 28.03.2026 1:37:52

A slow-burning exploration of power, dependence, and the blurred line between nurturing and possession. In this episode, host Charlotte picks a fight with an indie movie that only grossed $30,000. Tangents include What Would Tom Hanks Do?, Rocky Mountain geography, and Canadian teen dramas. (Content warnings: child sexual abuse, grooming, pedophiles, and related topics.)
