The new episode of the podcast sees Alison Peirse, now Professor of Film Studies at University of Leeds, return to the show to update us on her work in videographic scholarship and Global Women's Horror Film studies. The episode follows the recent release of a stunning special issue of the vital MAI: Feminism and Visual Culture Journal, edited by Alison, featuring a trove of video essays looking at the role of women in Global Horror filmmaking, which serves as an output of a larger-funded project. The conversation covers some of the essays in detail, but more depth is paid to the process of making creative academic practice work that is inclusive, radical and disruptive, to feminist anti-patriarchal practices, the wonder of Sara Ahmed and the intricacies of being a newly minted Prof! Talk also covers Alison's much-missed newsletter The Losers' Club (which she promises will be back soon) and the feminist practice collective space Ways of Doing. Thanks to Alison for coming back to the show and for such an engaging and enlightening conversation. ---- You can listen to The Cinematologists for free wherever you listen to podcasts: click here to follow.

On today's episode I'm joined by Dr Alison Peirse; associate professor of film at the University of Leeds, writer, playwright, filmmaker and creator of the greatest newsletter around - seriously, there's nothing Alison can't do. Alison threw me a real challenge by choosing trickiest FFO I've ever had: knitting, the ocean, cats. I'm sorry to say that I did not find anything that matched all three, so I definitely need to do my homework. The film we chose though is very ocean-focused and features some fabulous knitwear - join us as we dissect Robert Egger's 2019 bro-buddy comedy, THE LIGHTHOUSE.

Writer and horror academic Dr. Alison Peirse returns to the pod to talk about the under-seen teen slasher starring Brittany Murphy, Cherry Falls (2000). We touch on how it upends slasher tropes with a killer that targets virgins, its troubled production history, the fashion and fringe choices (a lot of pleather) and its indirect influence on Malignant. Produced and presented by Anna Bogutskaya***Music: "Slasher" by Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio***The Final Girls are a UK-based film collective exploring the intersections of horror film and feminism, founded by Anna Bogutskaya and Olivia Howe.→ Find out more about our projects here: thefinalgirls.co.uk→ Follow us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.→ Support us on Patreon.→ Subscribe to our weekly newsletter for curated horror treats and original writing on horror.

Welcome to our final episode of 2021! We're leaving this year with a bang, ghouls. Candace and Ariel are joined by writer Alison Peirse for our most British double feature ever: Kate Shenton's independent dark meta horror comedy about the nightmares of filmmaking, Egomaniac (2016), and Prano Bailey-Bond's fever dream of art, unresolved trauma, and video nasties, Censor (2021). This is one of those film pairings that seem to have nothing in common until you watch them together, otherwise known as our favorite kind. If you love to see a sympathetic (if not necessarily relatable) character struggle to force the world into the shape she wants it to be, the dark recesses of the inner mind explored, corpses arranged into little tableaus, and/or descents into madness, look no further. We also talk about Tim Curry playing a terrifying demon creature in Legend (1985), so if you don't like any of the aforementioned things, at least stay for that. Alison Peirse is a multi-award-winning horror writer and Associate Professor of Film. Her latest book is Women Make Horror: Filmmaking, Feminism, Genre. She also runs a horror film newsletter, The Losers' Club, which she thinks you might like. A proud part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network. Our drive for intersectionality aligns well with the Morbidly Beautiful ethos. We love that MB is a nonprofit that gives back to the horror community, and are thrilled to be a part of the network!

A Tale of Two Sisters, 2003, Editor Lee Hyeon-mi In this episode, Neil talks to one of Horror Cinema's leading scholars and all-round creative force of nature, Dr. Alison Peirse. Alison teaches film at Leeds (and is an old colleague of Dario's!) where she is an associate professor. She writes a brilliant newsletter called The Losers Club and is finding success on the film festival circuit with her debut video essay Three Ways to Dine Well. Alongside monographs on 1930s and Korean horror, Alison is the editor of the recent publication Women Make Horror which is a groundbreaking piece of scholarship in form and focus, and she contributes an intellectually provocative and exhilarating piece that explodes the previous limits of not only Horror scholarship but cinema scholarship more broadly. It's a great book. It was a pleasure to welcome Alison to the podcast and you can learn more about her work (and sign up for her newsletter) on her terrific website here. Elsewhere on the show Neil and Dario discuss their evolving and crystallised thoughts on academic practice growing out of the conversation with Alison and also extol the virtues of Alexandre Rockwell's new film Sweet Thing (Neil) and the documentary Jodorowsky's Dune (Dario). It's also worth hanging around and signing up for the bonus episode where Neil and Dario get deeper into questions about film academia and purge some negative feelings that have built up over time. ——— Music Credits: ‘Theme from The Cinematologists' Written and produced by Gwenno Saunders.

TW: Talk of Sexual Assault, timestamp 00.00-30.00 Welcome to the second edition of the Chick Flix Film Club! A programme presented by She Sources and Making It: Women in Film, airing the first Monday of every month. This month, we discuss Karyn Kusama's 2009 horror-comedy, "Jennifer's Body," starring Megan Fox, and Cathy Yan's 2020 superhero-action film, "Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey," with Margot Robbie in the lead. These movies were considered commercial flops, and "Jennifer's Body" was especially received with harsh and scathing reviews. Was this a result of poor marketing, the gender imbalance in film criticism, the disproportional scrutiny filmmakers of marginalised backgrounds face, or the ingrained possessive entitlement of the male gaze (and audience)? Let's discuss! Timestamps: Jennifer's Body | 00.00 - 30.00 Watch The Take's commentary video on the film's female gaze here Listen to "#16 Horror Films and Feminism" with horror film professor Alison Peirse for more about women's history and future in the genre, wherever you're listening!

Part of our new series devoted to exploring the vampire in horror cinema, we reach peak 80s with the most iconic vampire film from the decade, The Lost Boys (1987). Joel Schumacher's influential teen-vampire film follows divorcée Lucy who, along with her two sons, Michael and Sam, moves to a small town in California. Soon, the two boys are sucked into the mysterious and dangerous world of bikers, punk vampires and teen monster hunters.Joining us in this episode is Dr. Alison Peirse to dig into the themes of the film, the true story behind the shiny saxophonist, horror fandom, the origins and the influence of The Lost Boys on vampire films. This season is made possible with the support of Arrow Video. This week's pick from their vast catalogue another acerbic teen classic, Heathers. Produced and presented by Anna Bogutskaya. ***The Final Girls are a UK-based film collective exploring the intersections of horror film and feminism.Find out more about our projects here: thefinalgirls.co.ukFollow us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.

In the first episode of our new season all about monsters, we talk about The Island of lost Souls (1932) and Cat People (1942). These two films make for a wicked double bill of cat-themed horror. I'm joined in this episode by Dr. Alison Peirse, author and professor specialised in horror cinema, to discuss Panther Women, cat-themed horror and how these films tackle female sexuality. *** The Final Girls are a UK-based film collective exploring the intersections of horror film and feminism.
