3 - Equal Opportunity Terror (The Exorcist with Jill M. Stone)

The Calls Are Coming from Inside the Podcast

In this week's episode, we go back almost 50 years to unpack the classic horror film The Exorcist (1973) with singer-songwriter Jill M. Stone. We touch on bad babysitters, bad neighbors, and why you shouldn't slap that priest. We then match up themes of religious trauma in horror films to talk about our double-feature selection Saint Maud (2020).

You can listen to Jill M Stone's albums No Cure for Loneliness and Taught anywhere you get your music, or purchase directly at https://www.jillmstone.com
