Fear Not! with Josh Larsen

In Fear Not!, critic Josh Larsen makes the case that monster movies, creature features, slashers, and other fright films artfully reflect our deep worries in a way that resonates with the Christian experience. Combining critical observation and theological reflection, Larsen devotes each chapter to a different horror subgenre, connecting that subgenre to a commonly shared fear. https://www.amazon.com/Fear-Not-Christian-Appreciation-Spirituality/dp/1666738522 https://www.filmspotting.net/ https://larsenonfilm.com/ Josh is the co-host of the radio show and podcast Filmspotting, author of Movies Are Prayers and Fear Not!
