The gals are back to talk about two movies about women driven to the brink of madness with special guest host Abby McDonnell (formerly of the two-part episodic extravaganza we called the Tortured Psychos Department). We discuss Mika Ninagawa’s 2012 film, Helter Skelter, and 2024 Oscar nominated The Substance, written and directed by Coralie Fargeat, and chat a bit about the phenomenon of horror at the Academy Awards.
Emmy’s piece from 2022 on Graphic Violence on TV:
