Never Seen The Godfather

Welcome to Never Seen The Godfather with Lorna and Sarah! Each week we dive into a popular film with someone who has never seen it and someone who loves it, and we discuss it. Are these films worth the hype? What have we been missing?I scream, you scream, we all scream... and we're still screaming. Someone call Gail Weathers because Lorna and Sarah are venturing into the horror genre for the first time with the 1996 Wes Craven film Scream and it's big news. We're not braving it alone though, as we are joined by horror expert Emily Long to guide us through one of her favourite films. The girls are on a journey of discovery this week, asking questions like what are the rules of a horror movie? Do we like cheesy lines or hate them? Is there more than one killer? And who the fuck is Randy? We also discuss the concept of the final girl, and in this podcast you have not one, not two, but three of them to carry you to the end.Follow Emily Long on letterboxd - https://letterboxd.com/emilylo_ng/Follow us on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/neverseenthegodfatherHosted by Lorna O'Dea and Sarah O'SullivanEdited and produced by Sarah O'SullivanSound engineer - Ben KeighleyCover Art by Emily Torpeyhttps://www.instagram.com/emily_torpey_designs/Books referenced:Unlikeable Female Characters: The Women Pop Culture Wants You to Hate (2023) by Anna BogutskayaMen, Women, and Chain Saws: Gender in the Modern Horror Film (1992) by Carol J.

Welcome to Never Seen The Godfather with Lorna and Sarah! Each week we dive into a popular film with someone who has never seen it and someone who loves it, and we discuss it. Are these films worth the hype? What have we been missing?Double double toil and... children? Listen up ye old hags - this week we're watching the 1993 Halloween staple Hocus Pocus which takes us to Salem with witch trials, talking cats, and puritans. Is it historically accurate? Who cares! We believe in women's rights and we believe in women's wrongs - but if Winifred, Mary and Sarah are wrong then we don't want to be right. They put a spell on us, and now... you know the rest.
