Surrealism in Animated Horror | A Look at STOPMOTION on Shudder

Listen Later

We're thrilled to bring you another spine-chilling and nostalgia-infused episode of Horror Rewind! This week, your ghoulish hosts, Kelly and Meg, are taking you on a captivating journey from heartwarming childhood classics to mind-bending surreal horror.


We delve into the emotional and psychological layers of today's feature film, STOPMOTION's, narrative, exploring themes of identity, artistic expression, and the haunting influence of a toxic mother-daughter relationship.


You'll hear our thoughts on whether the young girl in the film is a ghost, a reflection of the protagonist's childhood, or her creative 'id'. The film's surreal elements keep us questioning reality, much like the fears tied to hypnosis and control.


🌟 Episode Highlights:

  • Nostalgia and Nightmares: Reflecting on "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and Ben Wyatt's moments from "Parks and Recreation."
  • Artistic Identity: Exploring a film about a woman's struggle to break free from a toxic relationship and find her creative voice.
  • Surreal Horror: Reviewing a film with characters like Ashman and the meat woman, exploring bizarre encounters and real-world challenges.
  • Zombie Prequel: Discussing "Soul Station," the animated prequel to "Train to Busan."
  • Animated Horror and Bank Robber: Comparing mature themes in animated horror and a documentary on a charming 70s bank robber.
  • Musical vs. Thriller: Contrasting trailers for "Wicked" and "Heretic" starring Hugh Grant.
