    336: HALLOWEEN BONUS EPISODE | I Interviewed a Horror Screenwriter About Her Religious-Themed Slasher!

    Watch Killer Body Count for FREE on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019969/killer-body-count On this special Halloween bonus episode of the Preacher Boys Podcast, we dive into an interview from my Film School'd YouTube channel, where I typically discuss the art of filmmaking with industry talents. Today, however, the crossover between my two worlds—horror and religious trauma—made this episode a perfect fit for Preacher Boys. I’m sharing a portion of my conversation with screenwriter Jessica Landry, who recently penned Killer Body Count, a slasher film with a hauntingly familiar twist for our listeners. The plot centers around a teenage girl misdiagnosed as a "sex addict" by her devout family and sent alone to a religious reform camp. But, in true horror style, things spiral when a masked killer targets the camp’s residents one by one. Jessica and I discuss the religious undertones woven into the film, her inspiration for the story, and the biblical motifs that give a darkly ironic spin to each “death scene." We also touch on Jessica’s own journey, growing up in a religious environment and eventually identifying as an atheist. For horror fans and those interested in confronting the shadows of religious trauma, this episode has something unique to offer. Listen in for insights on how horror films can explore deep-seated fears around organized religion, shame, and identity, with a splash of classic slasher thrills. ✖️✖️✖️ Support the Show: Patreon.com/PreacherBoys ✖️✖️✖️ If you or someone you know has experienced abuse, visit courage365.org/need-help ✖️✖️✖️ CONNECT WITH THE SHOW: preacherboyspodcast.com https://www.youtube.com/@PreacherBoys https://www.facebook.com/preacherboysdoc/ https://twitter.com/preacherboysdoc https://www.instagram.com/preacherboyspod https://www.tiktok.com/@preacherboyspod To connect with a community that shares the Preacher Boys Podcast's mission to expose abuse in the IFB, join the OFFICIAL Preacher Boys Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1403898676438188/ ✖️✖️✖️ The content presented in this video is for informational and educational purposes only.
