13. THE SANTA CLAUSE as Body Horror | With Peter Counter Basement Girls Horror Podcast
-
- TV & Film
Never put on a dead man's clothes!
Author and culture critic Peter Counter joins Steph Grossman and Bianca Pérez in the basement to discuss how THE SANTA CLAUSE (1994), starring Tim Allen, is actually a movie about body horror, possession, and the sublime. It's basically a yuletide HEREDITARY (in fact, we're pretty sure Santa Claus knows Paiman...).
