Synopsis

Welcome back to Fright School! Joshua gives some tips for dealing with anxiety and stress. Joe got some new glasses! We're excited for the unrated version of M3GAN to hit Peacock. Joe revisits SUPERSTORE. Stephen Graham Jones just released the sequel to MY HEART IS A CHAINSAW, DON'T FEAR THE REAPER and Joshua attended the book signing. This week on the show we get really deep with ATTACK THE BLOCK. Utilizing an expansive and detailed article by Lorrie Palmer, we discuss the language of the film, how the architecture of the council buildings and postwar Britain influence the story, the othering of racism and alienation, and toxic masculinity. Buckle up, Dear Listener! This is a weird one. Attack the Block: monsters, race, and rewriting South London’s outer spaces by Lorrie Palmer Learn more about your ad choices.
