Nichole delves back into sick kid territory with 2013’s The Harvest. This film does some nuanced things when it comes to the narrative of overbearing, harmful parents/caregivers, which softens the blow of some weaker narrative threads. Instead of the film being an exploration of caregiver stress and burnout, like we’ve covered in other episodes, The Harvest lets us exist with Andy’s perspective albeit with a twist at the end.

Nichole returns to unpack the horrors of COVID-19 with the Kevin Williamson and Katelyn Crabb-penned film Sick (2022), directed by John Hyams.

Hagsploitation, or narratives that root themselves in “crazy old woman” tropes, can be a lot of fun. They can also inspire a lot of cringe, particularly as we deal with the realities of aging and disability. Crazy Old Lady, an Argentinian film (available on Shudder), brings something new to the table. Unlike other entries in this subgenre, the film allows us to both question and understand the reality of our central character. Throw in themes of caregiving and how ageism – and the hagsploitation genre as a whole – is built on our fears of aging and illness, and this movie is about a lot more than initially meets the eye.

Bryan and Joe reunite to discuss the 15th anniversary of Victor Garcia's Hellraiser: Revelations (2011), Dimension's last ditch attempt to retain the rights to the franchise and the first film without Doug Bradley. We maintain that this one has potential - from the gentle queer coding to the found footage angle to the practical FX - but Gary J. Tunnicliffe's script (and some truly terrible adult actors) never manage to overcome the low budget and speedy production. It's a miss.

Gena, Jenn and Joe return to discuss a scandalous 1992 erotic thriller featuring an underage Drew Barrymore and a very mature Tom Skeritt. In Katt Shea's Poison Ivy, Drew owns everything, which proves a bit problematic when she's not on screen. Plus: the studio-mandated ending; the sequels; Sara Gilbert; and why this movie could never be made now.

In this episode of Bodies of Horror, we’re sinking our teeth into Luca Guadagnino’s film, Bones and All. Based on the 2015 book of the same name, Nichole gets into how we can struggle with the bodies we inherit, as well as a talk about community and how being accepted in your body can be affirming and freeing.

Happy American Heart Month! What better time to do the pod's first revisit – all the way back to Episode 1 - than with the 1992 classic, Dr. Giggles? This film has had a piece of Nichole's heart since childhood when she would use it to help talk about disability with friends. Now, many decades later, the film still packs more nuance than even she remembered. Want to discuss the film or make a suggestion for future coverage?

Gena, Jenn, and Joe are back from a slightly extended holiday break to talk patron saint of the pod Rose Byrne and her Oscar-nominated performance in writer/director Mary Bronstein's gruelling If I Had Legs I'd Kick You (2025). This film is *not* playing around: it is incredibly rough, but it is also effective and even necessary. Plus: Conan O'Brien's dramatic role, worrying about an affair with A$AP Rocky, and why Linda's husband and child are barely seen.

A cure can be alluring – especially when your prognosis is only 6 months. In Mother of Flies, Lena is a young cancer patient who is surrounded by a religious family and community asking her to rely on prayers as her condition becomes more grave. This film also looks at how care becomes a dehumanizing task that can strip someone of autonomy, intentions be damned.

Thanks to listener Jen, Terry and Joe reunite to discuss The Art Life, a documentary about David Lynch and his art practice. It's not revelatory, but it's a lovely complement to the discussions we've had about the chain-smoking filmmaker. Plus: the most memorable anecdotes, a few critiques of the format, and a rallying cry for artists.
