Daylight Horror 2 - The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) and Piggy (2022)
Description
This week, we discuss the iconic The Texas Chain Saw Massacre - a blood-soaked odyssey into the maddening heat of rural Texas. We dissect the film's enduring legacy, from its groundbreaking violence to its exploration of family, fate, and the American psyche.
We then turn our attention to Carlota Pereda's groundbreaking debut Piggy, delving into themes of bullying, body image, and the monstrous within us all.
Get ready to sweat, scream, and question your sanity.
