Women in Horror Episode 5: Extremity (Martyrs & American Mary)

For the penultimate episode in our Women in Horror series, Zoe from Zobo With A Shotgun podcast joins us to talk extreme horror. We discuss Pascal Laugier’s infamous Martyrs (2008) and the Soska sisters’ American Mary (2012) stopping along the way to explore the depiction of trauma on screen, revenge and rejecting ‘respectable’ society. Don’t be scared… you’re safe with us.
