FRONTIER(S) & the New Wave of French Extremity
from The Pod and the Pendulum · host Mike Snoonian
It's been called The Paris Texas Chainsaw Massacre by smartasses, but Xavier Gens debut feature is a one of the most overtly political movies of French extreme horror. Inspired by the rise of right wing nationalism and violent clashes between protestors and Parisian police in the early 21st century, Frontiers is the grim tale of four Muslims that escape Paris' burning streets after committing a robbery only to fall captive to Nazi saluting cannibals on the outskirts of society. It is one of the bloodiest, gnarliest and mot grizzly titles we've discussed to date. Joining us this week is returning guest-writer & illustrator Dani Ryan. Dani tells us of her love for extreme horror and why this one resonates with her.
