CW: Suicide, Mental Illness It’s Man vs. Demon Week on Pod Sematary as Chris and Kelsey discuss two films about regular ol’ human dudes taking on the un-killable spawn of hell! But be sure not to underestimate the ladies in these stories, as they may be more powerful than they’re given credit for! The Classic Film: Rawhead Rex (1986) "Ireland will never be the same after Rawhead Rex, a particularly nasty demon, is released from his underground prison by an unwitting farmer” (IMDb.com). Clive Barker famously dislikes this production of one of his many screenplays, and for good reason, but maybe… just maybe… it wasn’t that great a concept to begin with? The Modern Film: Constantine (2005) "Supernatural detective John Constantine helps a policewoman prove her sister's death was not a suicide, but something more” (IMDb.com). An underrated comic book movie to be sure, Constantine is basically John Wick in tone, concept, and lead actor, but with demons thrown in for good measure. Plus! Kelsey questions the origins of the Christian faith and Chris talks too much about comic books! Get more at podsematary.com!
