Episode 074- Bad Blood Relations
Madness! Murder! Possession! Vengeful Gods! With the Ancient Greeks, it was all in the family. Many Greek Tragedies dealt with anxiety around the fragility of families in a dangerous world. The most frightening theme was the families destroying themselves from the inside. What is it in our nature that drives some of us to madness, cruelty and self-destruction? Just like the Greek Tragedies, some modern horror films ask this question of the audience, and the results can be as upsetting as they can be terrifying. Join me as I look at horror movies that mix Ancient Greek nihilism and biblical retribution! I hope you enjoy the show!
