Welcome back to Fright School! We're catching up on another week in the pandemic! Joe did trivia for Guam! Joshua and Joe checked out CLARICE and chat about the state of the SILENCE OF THE LAMBS property. Joshua also had a chance to see POSSESSOR. VOTE now for the FANGORIA CHAINSAW AWARDS 2021! We wonder about the veracity of Tim Burton's WEDNESDAY series. This week we discuss Kasi Lemmons' EVE'S BAYOU! We're continuing our celebration of Black History Month (and also Women in Horror month!) with this gorgeous and mystical meditation on memory and the Southern Gothic. We discuss the fears of women, the intersections of religious and spiritual practices, and the multiplicities of minority groups.
