Published: Dec. 13, 2021, 11 a.m.

Welcome back to Fright School! Joshua chokes on his adrenochrome. Joe saw HOUSE OF GUCCI and has some thoughts. We continue our Maddy Morphosis chat and the changing world of Queerness. This week we continue our holiday season with more Jewish horror in THE GOLEM (2018). This spin on the classic Jewish folk tale has Kabbalistic magic, a golem in the form of a child, and leaves us discussing feminism in 1673. \n\nRecommended Reading/Viewing:\n\nOfficial Theatrical Trailer THE GOLEM (2019)\n\nThe Golem of Prague: Man or Monster? by Jayden Lewis\n\nExtra Credit:\n\nCheck out THE LIST WE MISSED "Have you seen this movie?
