World of Horror with Mom & Mac
Mother and son team Mom and Mac discuss, analyze, dissect and explore international horror movies. Conversations are casual but spoiler-heavy. We take turns choosing a genre or subgenre of horror and pairing an international film with an American one. Past episodes have included: Funny Games, One Missed Call, Let the Right One In/Let Me In. Genres we have covered are Animal Attack (BOAR from Australia and TREMORS); Creepy Kids (GOODNIGHT, MOMMY from Austria and ORPHAN); Battle Royale-type films (BATTLE ROYALE from Japan and THE BELKO EXPERIMENT); Haunted Houses (THE HOUSE AT THE END OF TIME from Venezuela and BEETLEJUICE). Special episodes feature foundational international horror films or guests who come on to highlight a film that "Means the World of Horror" to them. https://linktr.ee/WorldofHorror

READY OR NOT & THE PLATFORM: Episode 161: The Girl is the Message
WoHos!!
This is one chatty episode! We looked at READY OR NOT & THE PLATFORM this week--two horror films about class warfare.
We also talked: Lack of spatial awareness, Mom's friendly town, "Kids today", rich people we've known, befuddlement over billionaires, and sobriety, among other things.
Next time on the main show Mac & I will talk "Horror in the Old Folks' Home" with NEXT OF KIN from Australia and THE RULE OF JENNY PEN from the US (but set in New Zealand?)
Thanks for all your support, WoHos! It means the World of Horror™ to us, truly!
