On this weeks episode of Katie Afraidy we chat with Director and writer of new THE TOXIC AVENGER Macon Blair!

Katie Afraidy is a horror movie review podcast where host, horror fanatic, and comedian Katie Hettenbach talks with comedians, actors, and filmmakers about horror movies!

In THE TOXIC AVENGER, when a downtrodden janitor, Winston Gooze, is exposed to a catastrophic toxic accident, he’s transformed into a new kind of hero: The Toxic Avenger. Now, Toxie must rise from outcast to savior, taking on ruthless corporate overlords and corrupt forces who threaten his son, his friends, and his community. In a world where greed runs rampant… justice is best served radioactive.

THE TOXIC AVENGER is directed & written by Macon Blair (I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore), the reboot of the 1980s dark cult comedy stars Emmy and Golden Globe winner Peter Dinklage ("Game of Thrones") as the titular character "Toxie," with Kevin Bacon (They/Them, Hollow Man), Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings franchise), Taylour Paige (Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, Zola), Jacob Tremblay (Room, Wonder) and Jane Levy (“Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist”) also starring.

THE TOXIC AVENGER is distributed by Cineverse, produced by Legendary Entertainment.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
