About this listen

Host Barnaby Ellison Thatch dissects the slasher film's paradoxical immortality, tracing its trajectory from 1970s invention through 1980s saturation, 1990s meta-textual resurrection, and endless cycles of death and rebirth. He explores how the genre's inability to die mirrors its unkillable villains, revealing deeper cultural anxieties beneath the blood and masks.
