S3 Ep 31: MEN - Clock

The Monstrous Feminine

Our last episode featuring horrible men in horror is the 2023 psychological horror ‘Clock’, directed by Alexis Jacknow. 🕰️👶🧸 We discuss how this film accurately captures the valid psychological and physical fears of pregnancy as well as the overwhelming familial, cultural and societal pressures to bear children - grounded by the main character's Jewish heritage. We also explore how Jacknow refreshingly uses female medical procedures as a mechanism for horror. You can find us on most platforms @themonstrousfemininepodcast, and on Twitter, @themonfempod.
