159 - Men and Their Games - Hunted (2020)

Published: April 26, 2021, 10 a.m.

Welcome back to Fright School! So we're having technical difficulties! We've managed to get through a year of the pandemic remotely recording with almost no issues and now all of a sudden things keep happening. Unfortunately, most of our catch up conversation just disappeared somehow. Boo! However, our conversation on HUNTED, much like it's main character Eve, managed to survive the bloody mess. We are finishing up our LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD trip with this Shudder exclusive film. We talk about how HUNTED flips some of the standard LRRH tropes by making the wolf a symbol of female empowerment and the woods transform from a dangerous place to one of protection and resilience. \n\nFOLLOW US!\nFacebook Twitter Instagram LinkTree\n\nRecommended Reading:\n\nOriginal trailer HUNTED (2020)\n\nHunted review \u2013 Red Riding Hood reboot is a nifty, nasty trip into the woods by Leslie Felperin\n\nHunted Prowls Familiar Ground with Real Ferocity By Andy Crump\n\nHow Hunted Makes An Important Change To The Little Red Riding Hood Story BY MARA BACHMAN\n\nEXTRA CREDIT:\n\nWE HAVE ALL NEW TEES AND MERCH AVAILABLE!\n\nFright School Recommended Texts:\n\nThe Monster Show: A Cultural History of Horror by David J.
