Do you like the “disabled-as-villain” trope, but with hot sauce? Do you like Oliver Platt playing, as always, a psychologist? Do you wonder if there is hierarchy of disabled kids?

Well…

Today on #AOASPodSquad: How bad can a movie with Naomi Watts be? 2016’s SHUT IN may have you rethinking that.

@bodiesofhorror.bsky.social looks at how this movie adopts horror tropes at the expense of portraying mental health issues and physical disabilities with any real nuance or care.

Have you ever encountered a child in the wild that their reaction was to sniff and salute you?

I need help knowing what to do with this. I assume 97.2% are possessed but my data is not peer verified.

NEW EPISODE ALERT!
Episode 99 is here and it’s something special. So thrilled to be joined by @bjcolangelo.bsky.social to talk about SPONTANEOUS. This film packs a wallop of a punch to the feels and BJ and I shared some feels and how this resonates with us in different, but similar, ways.

Anatomy of a Scream @anatomyofascream.bsky.social · Aug 19

For Episode 99, @bodiesofhorror.bsky.social digs into the 2020 film, SPONTANEOUS.

Nichole is joined by returning guest @bjcolangelo.bsky.social to discuss surviving, feeling like a ticking time bomb, and the messiness that comes with accepting the moment when the future is an unknown.

The amount of whimsy any trip of Nashville promises is directly connected with how many Pedal Taverns I see within the first hour.

NEW EPISODE DAY!

It was a treat and a half to have @theluckysharms.bsky.social and @35thfloor.bsky.social on to talk about this intensely icky, very powerful feature debut by Brandon Cronenberg.

I walked away from this film and conversation reaffirming my aversion to “mystery meat.”

Today on #AOASPodSquad: @bodiesofhorror.bsky.social welcomes @bloodybroads.bsky.social’s @theluckysharms.bsky.social and @35thfloor.bsky.social to talk Brandon Cronenberg’s ANTI-VIRAL (2012), his unique spin on the horror genre, and how the film uses body horror to comment on identity.

I awe’d.

There are two reasons that I will close to use to walk to and from every day. I get front row seats to:

1. Dogs on walks
2. Folks on walks together (couples, friends, etc.) either prepping for their day or catching up in their own beautiful way.

My favorite part of watching cooking completion shows?
Contestant 4 will talk about how they’re there to win money to care for an ailing loved one.

*silence, maybe a nod*

It is ALWAYS and immediately by the judges talking to Contestant 5 that broke their hollandaise sauce.

*cue brooding music*

Bodies of Horror Podcast @bodiesofhorror.bsky.social · Jul 21

Thank you, good sir! Adore you, so so thankful for the support and being on the pod, and just every bit of love you have shown. You are incredible and a person I’m so thankful to have gotten to know.
