Of Monsters, Murders, And The Armageddon

On this special episode, ABOC welcomes back one of its founders, Shefah Szetu! Uma talks about how monster-themed movies like ‘The Shape of Water’ may offer the right escapism and metaphors to help us cope with real-life 'monsters' in all their forms. Shefah then shares her favourite podcast of the true crime genre, and comments on the morbid fascination most of us share with murder stories. Kam brings up the rear by asking whether we will never get enough of end-of-the-world plots in movies.
