In this episode we become the monster, exploring what its like to be the one considered abnormal or inhuman. Lindsay examines this notion of the Other in horror and science fiction (01:12), then we discuss Brian DePalma’s coming-of-age horror classic Carrie (07:55), and Paul Verhoeven’s sci-fi action satire Robocop (50:12). We finish with Honourable Mentions (01:32:02) of other films that also take us into the monster's point-of-view .
