Welcome back to Fright School! It has been a busy week for Joshua! The 25th Anniversary screening of SCREAM was almost marred by a VERY amorous couple. SyFy debuted its new CHUCKY series. Halloween Kills slashed its way onto Peacock and into theaters. Joe did some things, too. With just a few weeks left in October and our Folk Horror exploration, we wacthed APOSTLE on Netflix! Clearly inspired by THE WICKER MAN, this story is all about a Doubting Thomas looking for his kidnapped sister on Cult Island! What could possibly go wrong?! We discuss the intimacy of violence, colonization stories, the imprisonment and subjugation of the Divine Feminine, and the environmental warnings of the film.
