Episode 180: Under the Shadow

Don't let the PG-13 rating fool you. Today's film is absolutely terrifying.

We round the corner for the home stretch on this phase of #inthemourning and its sub-series #remnant with our penultimate episode on one of the very, very few Persian horror films: UNDER THE SHADOW. We also take one brief detour into episodes 7 and 8 or HBO's THE LEFTOVERS Season 1 before wrestling down the nightmarish vision of a mother and her daughter terrorized by a malevolent spirit in 1980s war-torn Tehran. It's a powerfully affecting film which yields some propulsive discussion around what it might mean for us to haunt the land where we live rather than it haunting us.

it's an exciting and very fun conversation this week and we hope you enjoy it.
