Episode 9: Gynaehorror with Dr. Erin Harrington

  • Summary

  • In 2018, film scholar Dr. Erin Harrington wrote a vital book titled "Women, Monstrosity, and Horror Film: Gynaehorror" about the depictions of virginity, menstruation, pregnancy, motherhood, and menopause in horror. In this episode, I had the great pleasure of chatting with Erin Harrington about her book, the limits of psychoanalysis in horror, why horror is fertile ground for speaking about women’s experiences, and much more. I’d like to think this conversation won’t just interest the horror fans among you, I hope I'm right!
