Spooky season is here babyeee! And that can only mean one thing here at Why the Flick? — it’s scary movie time. So to kick off our first episode, we’re descending into Barbarian (2022) with Tawny from Two Chicks and a Horror Flick. If you went into this movie knowing what to expect only to be blindsided and sent on a rollercoaster ride of emotions for 85 minutes, welcome to the club. Join us as we unpack what the movie has to say about the terror of gender dynamics, ignoring red flags, and doing your Airbnb research. We also address the movie’s unique tonal shifts, Bill Skarsgård and Justin Long casting trickery, what makes a perfect trailer, and all the possible prequels/sequels/spinoffs (sans Frank).
