Scream Queen Podcast

For Indie Horror Highlights I interview writer/director/actor Ricky Glore.
Bobby Sweet is a country music legend and has been the world-renowned face of "Sweet Meats" since establishing his first restaurant with his wife in 1978. How did this restaurant take off so quickly and what makes the meat so darn sweet? Sometimes a "secret ingredient" should stay that way. They always say, "you'd be disgusted if you knew what you were really eating!" They might be right.
Tagline: Meat. Murder. Music. Delicious!

This is my 61th episode and my theme of the month is Manic March, where we analyze the manic female archetype in horror.
The protagonist May, is characterized as "manic" primarily through her sudden, drastic shifts in energy and her increasingly erratic, obsessive behavior as her mental state deteriorates. While she begins the film as painfully shy and socially anxious, her "manic" qualities emerge as a response to repeated rejection.

This is my 60th episode and my theme of the month is Good for Her February. Where the trauma and torment women, children, and men go through doesn’t have to end at her suffering. It might be a fantasy to get revenge in the way the movies show it but it’s a cathartic escape from the reality we live in when justice is rare. Meir Zarchi said he was inspired to make the film after helping a young woman who had been brutally raped.
My guest Kellie from Final Girls Podcast and I recount the events in the film and analyze it through a feminist lens.
