Episode description

We have a bonus sized Cystmas/ Christmas special for you this week, goons!

Jake interviews Eva Habermann, star of Lexx, Under ConTroll (Troll World), and of course-- CYST! We discuss her working relationship with George Hardy and how his cameo in Under ConTroll ended up being responsible for Cyst ever even being conceived. It is remarkable just how many cast members and crew overlap from Under ConTroll to Cyst. 

Ade discusses whether or not horror is misogynist. She gives several examples as to how/ why horror is actually empowering to women. Some lesser known films she discusses are American Mary, The Blackcoat's Daughter, and Starry Night. Then, of course, we discuss the big mamajama that started it all: Black Christmas (1974, no... not those abominable remakes! Those we talk about on the Patreon Bonus).
