Let The Right Films In

Sean Laughery returns to the podcast to talk about Alien! The gang talks about Ripley, her place in film history, and her relation to the Final Girl trope. This also takes us to talking about Lambert and her treatment in the film, Vasquez Always Dies, and women in horror as a whole. The discussion does involve talk of sexual violence throughout, starting at the 34 minute mark. Inevitably, Kayla and Sean spend several minutes on LTRFI hero Jones the cat, Even more inevitably, Kayla finds a wholly preposterous way to wedge Chris Evans into the recommendations.
