After Nosferatu, we wanted to keep talking about vampires—but there were so many movies to pick from that, instead of choosing only one or two, we each brought a whole darn list. So enjoy as we discuss A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, Daughters of Darkness, Thirst, Habit, The Addiction, My Heart Can’t Beat Unless You Tell It To and all the other best offbeat vampires that movies have to offer.

It's a new year and a new season, and we're starting things off with a dark, dread-filled, mustachioed bang: Robert Eggers's 2024 Nosferatu. We discuss filmmaking from another era, storytelling from another era, and the feminine urge for death. Also: cats! Who survive!

Episode 05.20: The Devil's Bath
In 18th-century Austria, women be depressed. For pretty good reasons. We discuss the recent film, The Devil's Bath, and cover what it feels like to be trapped in an oppressive society, both sides of subtlety, and why maybe sometimes people should talk things out before resorting to murder (sometimes).

Episode 05.19: Bunny Lake Is Missing
Bunny Lake is missing ... or did she never exist? You know women, always making up imaginary children to claim have been kidnapped. We discuss Otto Preminger's 1965 psychological whodunnit, Bunny Lake Is Missing, including the differences between the film and its source novel, and society's hysterical assumptions about women without children, or women with children via unconventional ways.
