ITS ALIVE/ THE UNBORN CHILD: Abortions and Abominations
Episode description
Horror has always been an outlet for political discussions during a time of crisis. This includes the decades-long abortion debate - how has horror covered this controversial topic?
The Cadaver Dogs delve deep inside THE UNBORN CHILD, aka SOP DEK 2002 (2011) where they discuss the true abortion incident that inspired the Thai horror film (and also murdering ghost babies). Fact or propaganda! Only you can tell. Followed by the classic Frankenstein baby flick ITS ALIVE (1974) where the Dogs reflect on the influence of the recently passed Roe V Wade (1973) and the great Thalidomide scandal that changed the nation. Abortion, personhood, propaganda, Thai myths, mutant babies and more!
