In this episode, hosts Katherine Troyer and Anthony Tresca discuss the 2020 film The Invisible Man.
Episode Highlights: Katherine frames the discussion with an examination of female paranoia within horror, Anthony praises the film's ability to create a narrative about an invisible man that nevertheless rings with verisimilitude, and we talk about the film's artful use of neutral space to heighten our anxieties.
A Dose of Scholarship: We recommend checking out Judith Halberstam's 1995 book Skin Shows: Gothic Horror and the Technology of Monsters for a deeper look into the concept of paranoia in the horror genre. Jonathan Markovitz's 2000 article "Female Paranoia as Survival Skill" published in Quarterly Review of Film and Video explores female paranoia within A Nightmare on Elm Street.
