    Ep. 16: Lord of the Flies (1963)

    Heather and Mattie finally watch the Lord of the Flies DVD that’s been collecting dust on their shelf for years. They consider their apathetic relationships with William Golding’s source material and place its allegory against their own experiences of childhood, society, and the natural world.

    Episode 15: The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly (pt.2)

    Mattie and Heather pick up their discussion of the seminal Italian western, as the three stars dodge Civil War atrocities in search of buried gold. What does it say about the war it depicts and the wars that defined the 20th century when the film was produced? Will the film ultimately claim its place in the collection, or be hung out among the many fallen films of the past? This is a public episode.

    Episode 14: The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly (pt. 1)

    Heather and Mattie have a lot of “guy” movies in their collection from over the years. Revisiting and reassessing them is a big part of the whole reason this podcast exists in the first place. Sergio Leone’s spectacular epic is maybe the predominant example of such a film. We look at the spaghetti western classic through modern American eyes. Beneath the performative grime and the brown-face, is there something worthwhile to keep this on our heroines’ shelf? This is a public episode.

    Reclutter #3 - Lisa Frankenstein

    After Terrifier failed to make the cut, Heather suggests another morbid addition to the couple’s collection, Diablo Cody’s retelling of the Frankenstein myth tinted with 80s fashion and teen angst. Does Lisa Frankenstein build a compelling narrative from the dismembered pieces of prior tales? And will its protagonist finally find a place to thrive among the other films of our hosts’ collection?

    Reclutter #2 - Terrifier

    With the proposed addition of Terrifier to the DVD wall, Mattie and Heather delve into the enigmatic draw of iconic slasher Art The Clown. What makes a slasher death joyful or simply cruel?
