S5 Ep 3: Serial Killers - Red Rooms (ft. interview with director Pascal Plante)

The Monstrous Feminine

For our last serial killer episode, we are covering the 2023 crime thriller ‘Red Rooms’ directed by Pascal Plante. 🟥💻 This episode is extra special because it includes snippets from an interview with the director himself. <3 We discuss the fascinating shift in focus from murderers to their admirers in this film, and attempt to unpick the psychology of female serial killer groupies and their parasocial relationships. We also express appreciation for this film’s impactful use of sound and responsibly restrained depiction of violence against girls.
