Summary

Week 2 of Toxic Masculinity month brings probably our most divisive film ever with 2008's Deadgirl. Extreme C/W: rape (and the dog dies!) Thankfully we're joined by two extreme horror fans, Dax Ebaben and Mary Beth McAndrews, who help us ask the important questions. Questions like: Who is this film for? What was the intent? And, most importantly, is it successful? It's an unconventional episode with no easy answers, but it's a great conversation. Questions? Comments? Snark? Connect with the boys on Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, Letterboxd, Facebook, or join the Facebook Group to get in touch with other listeners > Trace: @tracedthurman > Joe: @bstolemyremote > Dax: @DaxEbaben > Mary Beth: @mbmcandrews Be sure to support the boys on Patreon!
