Bitch Media just put out a new Popaganda podcast about feminism and horror films with some recommendations and themes I haven’t posted about yet: underrated heroines, the Final Girl Brunch Club, and depictions (read: fear) of menstruation in horror.

Horror films are fertile ground for conversations about gender, fear, and body fluids. On this show, writer Sarah Marshall lays out her favorite underrated horror heroines, we meet up with a “final girl” brunch club at Brooklyn’s Nitehawk Cinema, and the ladies of Crimson Wave discuss the irony that even gore-fest films seem to fear the sight of menstrual blood. Plus: a conversation about alien abduction with Study Group Comics editor Shanna Matuszak.
Content warning: moderate spoilers for some of the films discussed; relatively discussions of blood and violence depicted in the films.
