Witches were persecuted for centuries, all based on superstition, paranoia, revenge, and greed. And so when a Puritan family is exiled to live in the woods, it's understandable they'd start pointing fingers when things go awry. But what else lurks in the more dangerous terrain of all: their minds? Guilt, lust, pride, greed, grief and sloth all come into play as five characters enter the new world, and only one leaves.

We all know how a monster acts, and often we know what a monster looks like, but as any horror fan will tell you, the scariest monster is the one you find within. Christ Washington may not have found a monster inside of himself, but he certainly found the horror that his mind is capable of when manipulated. But what can the Sunken Place teach us about ourselves and what lives just beyond our conscious mind?

There's no denying that Michael Myers, the grandfather of the slasher genre, is one of the scariest horror movie monsters of the modern era. And it's not because of any supernatural powers, or especially creepy visuals -- it's actually the opposite. Myers disturbs us because we don't get any information from him. Hiding his face behind a mask, never speaking a word, he moves soundlessly and emotionlessly through our lives, carrying out his murderous mission. So what can we say about Myers and the Real? Well, a lot more than you'd think. The Cine-Analyst is written, produced, and recorded by Sara Roncero-Menendez. Audio editing by Angela Yih. Original music by Hoa Pham

Being a teenager is hard. Being a unpopular teenager is even harder. Being an unpopular teenager who is abused by your overly religious mother can be utterly overwhelming. So some might find it understandable why Carrie White, with her newly developed psychic powers, took out an entire high school gym's worth of kids. How Carrie got these powers is not important – what she does with them is. More importantly how it puts her closer to the state of the Real by giving her what she wants – for people to stop laughing at her. From victim to villain, Carrie represents the person we want to be...and the person we're scared we are.
