    • TV & Film

Hell's Belles are back as Heather Drain and Kat Ellinger recognise International Women's Day with a raw and no holds barred insider perspective on writing about horror and exploitation film from a female perspective. The duo open up to discuss the willy waving, the sexism, the sleaze, as well as exploring what it feels like to be considered 'the wrong type of feminist'. They also discuss their feelings about tokenism, the current cultural climate, and why they feel women don't need a 'horror month'. The episode ends with a celebration of some of their favourite female icons in film.
