Description

In the penultimate episode of the series, we get into how hagsploitation turned to body horror, and ruined its characters in the process. We cover The Taking of Deborah Logan (2014), The Visit (2015), The Grandmother (2021), The Elderly (2022), Old People (2022), X (2022) and Barbarian (2022). With a special contribution from culture writer Billie Walker, who penned a great essay on the new hagsploitation that you can read here.  Produced and presented by Anna Bogutskaya. ***Music: "Bloodlust" by Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio and @lofigeek***The Final Girls are a UK-based film collective exploring the intersections of horror film and feminism, founded by Anna Bogutskaya and Olivia Howe.→ Find out more about our projects here: thefinalgirls.co.uk→ Listen to our weekly horror film podcast.→ Follow us on Twitter and Instagram.→ Support us on Patreon for bonus content.
