In this episode, hosts Katherine Troyer and Anthony Tresca discuss the 1993 (or '92 if you'd rather) film Army of Darkness.
Episode Highlights: Our Evil Dead extravaganza continues as we discuss why this will never be Anthony's favorite film of the franchise (too much medieval fantasy) and why this film snuck into the number two spot for Katherine (splendid special effects and terrific directing). Looking deeper, we talk about the film's portrayal of gender and how--as part of a larger narrative spanning all three films--Army of Darkness complicates and problematizes our understandings of masculinity.
A Dose of Scholarship: In this episode we discussed Tison Pugh's essay on Ash's queer masculinity in Race, Class, and Gender in “Medieval” Cinema and Betina Entzminger's essay on fin de siècle anxieties in Mark Twain and Sam Raimi's respective works.
