We discuss sibling rivalry, bullying, uncanny objects, stranger danger, the boogeyman, the many meanings of Michael Myers, why everyone is always on the phone in slasher movies, and cultural fantasies and fears about infantile aggression and cruelty.Have you noticed that Freud is back? Got questions about psychoanalysis? Or maybe you’ve traversed the fantasy and lived to tell the tale?
