Show Notes
This week on the podcast…snakes and snake-related nature run amok flicks.
We shine the spotlight on Megaboa, a 2021 affair, featuring a prof and some grad students fending off a giant snake on a tropical island.
Unlike other animal attack genres, snake horror flicks have yet to produce a bona fide classic, a la Jaws (sharks), Backcountry (bears), Alligator (gators) or Cujo (dogs).
Ever wonder why that is?
Anyway, let’s take a deep dive into this one, shall we?
Topics discussed:
- The killer snake genre
- Eric Roberts and his oeuvre
- Other animal attack genres
- The prevalence/ubiquity of anthropology professors in horror
