Technical Note: Unfortunately Nicole had some technical issues with her recording, so you may notice a change in the quality of her audio for the final 30 minutes of the episode. In the final episode of season one of The Celluloid Mirror we invited Ashlee Blackwell to join us to talk about two teen films: Jennifer Reeder's Knives and Skin from 2019 and Stephen Herek's Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead from 1991. Ashlee is the creator of the online scholarship Graveyard Shift Sisters, a resource highlighting the history of Black women in the horror genre and is one of the writers and producers of the Shudder Original documentary, Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror. She's currently an adjunct professor of film studies. Knives and Skin and Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead are both films about suburban) teenagers coming of age in the absence of parental guidance, catalyzed by an unexpected and obfuscated death. We talk about those similarities, our reactions, and how in some ways the teens in Knives and Skin are the children of the teens in Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead. This is our last episode for season one of the show. We're going to take a little break and be back soon with more episodes. Let us know what movies or pairing you'd be interested in us diving into.

The phrase “Mind Over Matter” refers to the power of thought, regardless of physical limitations. Not only was this phrase uttered by her character, Sheila, in A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master, it is also a phrase Toy Newkirk has grown up practicing. Coming from a father in entertainment, Toy was encouraged to build her own path. She pushed limits, enthusiastically sought learning opportunities, and stood strong in the face of adversity. Even today, Toy Newkirk is a force of persistence and a source of inspiration. Whether it's a “killer physics test” or a film production, Toy Newkirk lets her Sheila shine. Host Diandra is joined by special guest host Ashlee Blackwell of Graveyard Shift Sisters, whom you might remember from an earlier episode exploring the importance of Sheila. Together Ashlee and Diandra discuss Sheila and willpower with Toy Newkirk.

What exactly motivated those decisions? Do you like Charlotte and Lizzie? If Lizzie is coded as queer… does it have anything to do with the fact that she’s been tortured and raped?

What ibuprofen pills are that large? What did you think about the film angles and camerawork? What was your favorite shot in the movie? How did Jeffrey and Theus come into this job?

Greetings, and welcome back to Horror Business. We have one awesome episode in store for you guys. On this episode we’re celebrating the Women In Horror Month, and we were lucky enough to be joined by Ashlee Blackwell from Graveyard Shift Sisters to discuss the role of black women in horror films. In a bit of a departure from our usual format we’ll be discussing three short films instead of two feature length films: R. Shanea Williams Paralysis, Maria Wilson’s Venefica, and Bree Newsome’s Wake. First and foremost we want to give a shoutout to our sponsors over at Lehigh Valley Apparel Creations, the premiere screen-printing company of the Lehigh Valley. Chris Reject and his merry band of miscreants are ready to work with you to bring to life your vision of a t-shirt for your business, band, project, or whatever else it is you need represented by a shirt, sweater, pin, or coozy. Head on over to www.xlvacx.com to check them out. Thanks! We begin by talking about what we’ve done in horror recently. Ashlee talks about seeing The Ritual and the current season of Syfy’s Channel Zero, as well as the Exorcist TV series. Justin talks about rereading Joe Hill’s horror fantasy comic series Locke & Key. Liam talks about reading Red Dragon. Ashlee begins by talking about why she started Graveyard Shift Sisters. She talks about being a “minority within a minority” and starting the website in order to bring black women in from the outskirts of the horror community and within horror films, and to highlight the role black women often play in horror films. She notes that the underrepresentation of black women in horror films, both starring in and consuming, is something that needs to be addressed. The problem of horror being a culture somewhat resistant to addressing issues of race and misrepresentation/underrepresentation is discussed, as is the concept of the ‘white gaze’ in horror film. There is a brief discussion on Jordan Peele’s work in the film Get Out and how it brought to light subjects some people were uncomfortable with. First up is 2010’s Wake. Ashlee talks about her acquaintance with the film, and how it personifies the idea of a “Southern Gothic horror film.” She talks about the recent phenomenon of black women staying single, or “black women ain’t gonna get married”, and the desirability of black women as a whole. The phenomenon of rootwork is touched upon, and black horror’s highlight of non-Christian religions and folk magic is discussed. Ashlee argues that the three bystanding women in the film represent society as a whole telling black women they aren’t good enough for a man. Some of the technical aspects of the film are discussed, as are some of the tragic aspects of the film. The idea of gaining power in a world in which you have none is discussed. The concept of short films being great because of their length is briefly touched upon. Up next is R. Shanea Williams’ 2015’s Paralysis. Ashlee talks about her background with the filmmaker and about being a fan of her other works. She talks about Williams’ ability to craft well defined characters, as well as her ability to craft mood and tone. The difference between the feeling of “horror” and “terror” is discussed. Justin talks the recent upswing in interest in the concept of sleep paralysis, and how the film deals with the idea of questioning ones own sanity. The idea of which is scarier (external forces acting upon you, or your own mind creating something) is examined. The idea of the unknown, and the uncertainty around it, being truly scary is touched upon. The lack of access to mental health care black women suffer from is discussed. Ashlee discusses seeing the film with an all black audience and how that lent to the experience. Finally we have 2016’s Venefica. We talk about how the film was written, directed, and starred by one person, the unspoken way some of the more horrific elements of the film are introduced. Justin talks about how he loved the abrupt ending of...
