Ep. 11: Don't Torture a Duckling (1972) with Matt Rogerson

It is the dawn of Fulci week and we are taking a look at one of his greatest Holy Terrors--the exceptional giallo Don't Torture a Duckling. We've brought in an expert on the subject to discuss it with us, Matt Rogerson, author of Fulci's Inferno: Faith in the Films of a Horror and Giallo Auteur and The Vatican Versus Horror Movies (follow the links for more information). He is also the editor of Darkest Margins: 24 Essays on Liminality and Liminal Spaces in the Horror Genre. Join us as we talk about the complicated man that was Lucio Fulci as well as the complex themes and ideas that underscore Don't Torture a Duckling, which also happens to be one hell of a great story and film.
