B02: All Mind, No Matter - Fleshy Protuberances

NSFW. Spoilers for The Exorcist, Cabin in the Woods, the Twilight Zone episode "He's Alive," and The Life Zone. Ohhhh, you have no idea.

In this episode:

• This is actually an episode of an old podcast I used to do called "All Mind, No Matter" which we recorded but never posted. I get into more detail in the podcast intro. Anyway, that's why I'm calling this a bonus episode--also because we hit some of the same topics we've already hit on AMOT, but taking them out would've disrupted the flow of the conversation.
• Exploitation and empowerment in the horror genre
• What makes a good horror monster?
• Brandon actually already had some show notes written up for this episode back when we recorded it, so here they are. We touch on the following:
• • Difference between terror and horror
  • Silent Hill: Shattered Memories
  • Amnesia: The Dark Descent
  • Fatal Frame
  • Nightmare on Elm Street remake
  • WB Logo Evolution
  • H.P. Lovecraft
  • Uncanny Valley
  • Coraline
  • MirrorMask
  • Masters of Horror
  • The Life Zone
  • Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne
  • Catholicism, Horror, and You!
  • Tenebrae
  • The Exorcist
  • Battle Royale
  • Machine Girl
  • Noboru Iguchi
  • The Host
  • Cabin in the Woods
  • Evil Dead remake
   

THERE'S ALWAYS AN ADDENDUM:

• The comic Kyle references.
• I cut some significant chunks from certain places where I was just rambling unnecessarily, so I apologize if it screws up some of the continuity.
• The movie Brandon was trying to remember that was blamed for At the Mountains of Madness’ demise was Prometheus.
• Why no happy gas masks? Here, take a look at this Mickey Mouse gas mask
