Killer kids take center stage in this episode in which we break down The Prodigy and Eli. Both dropping in 2019, these films center children and evil in ways that both reflect and challenge conventional depictions of childhood monstrosity. So stay tuned!
Check out Gwen’s work on children in horror in the 2010 film Case 39 (in her view one of the best “evil children” films) and in her “Post 9-11 Horror Films Reveal Collective Anxieties about Children.”
You can stream The Prodigy on Amazon:
And Eli is available on Netflix.
