Hard Candy (aka AAAAGGGGHHHHH!) with Katie Schenkel

Fear Level: Terrifying, Existentially disconcerting Trigger Warnings: Rape, pedophilia, grooming, body mutilation, violence against youths, predatory behavior, allusions to child molestation, extended suspense, implied gore Literally this whole field could be a trigger warning and it wouldn't be enough! Katie Schenkel joins us to talk about the Elliot Page / Patrick Wilson claustrophobic, nauseating, incredibly tense drama about grooming, child molestation, murder, revenge, and mutilation. Topics of Discussion: Oh boy this is a heavy one Discussions of pronouns RIP Goldfrap This ain't a cabin and it ain't in the woods How to make a movie about sexualizing minors without sexualizing minors JEFF IS SWEATING SO HARD!
