THE CLOVEHITCH KILLER & THE INNOCENTS: Episode 129: If You Can Hear Me, I Love You

World of Horror with Mom & Mac

WoHos! The theme this time is "Loss of Innocence". We reviewed THE CLOVEHITCH KILLER from the US & THE INNOCENTS from Norway.
We enjoyed the exploration of the distance that grows between a child and parent during adolescence in THE CLOVEHITCH KILLER. Everyone can relate to that feeling, but thankfully only a few will ever know the horrifying reality our protag Tyler feels in THE CLOVEHITCH KILLER.
In THE INNOCENTS the inherent powerlessness is what is examined in a world where children suddenly discover they have spernatural powers. CW: Cat harm and cat death--also kid harm and kid death--also parent harm and parent death.

We had a good discussion about some missteps the directors take, the use and misuse of does the dog die website, the depiction of a character with nonverbal autism and whether or not this depiction was problematic,
Mac, Quinn, and I have all been sick this season. It's Q's turn currently, but when she is better, we will do a Quinnisode on maybe my all-time favorite movie? FARGO.
Next on the main show we will be looking at movies involving mental illness with JACOB'S LADDER from the US & THE BABADOOK from Australia.
If you are enjoying the show, please get in touch and tell all your friends all about us.
Stay healthy, our WoHos!
And remember: We love you and DON'T go into the basement!!
