Description

In this episode, I interview Caroline Young regarding her book "Crazy Old Ladies The Story of Hag Horror". From the moment Bette Davis served up a dead rat to Joan Crawford in What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? a subset of camp horror films was born. The ‘Hag Horror’ genre exploited the former Oscar-winners and glamour queens who had effectively built Hollywood, transforming them into grotesque caricatures that revealed a cultural disdain for older women.Doug Hess is the host! goto Patreon.com/forgottenhollywood
