Episode 015: Dark Waters, or ”Why is Folk Horror so f$&÷%∆! weird?”

Dark Waters is a very weird Folk Horror movie about dubious nuns, an odd convent, and how they fare under an audit. But Lucas and Joe want to know why these movies are always so off the wall. Join us as we talk about religious trends, the metaphysics of Italian Horror Movies, and which John Carpenter movie you should watch.
