We're coming at you with a special episode for the start of spooky season, Pod People! Inspired by discussions in the horror community about whether Oz Perkins' Longlegs is a "scary" film and whether it qualifies as horror (spoiler alert, we definitely think it does), we discuss Longlegs within this context and also share five films that have shaped our understanding and love for horror. Our personal horror canons, if you will.
Also, our Question of the Month is: In honor of Latinx and Hispanic Heritage Month, who are your favorite Latinx horror authors, filmmakers, podcasters, and artists? Respond on our social media accounts or send us an email at horrorinthemargins@gmail.com.
Our conversation about Longlegs begins at 29:45. The discussion of our personal horror canons begins at 40:46
