Perfect balance of entertaining and analysis which makes you think
Not only does this podcast cater to little (w)horror lovers like myself, it also broadcasts feminist views, racial equality, gender equality, and basic human rights. The Whorrors! podcast is a breath of fresh air for anyone who is sick and tired of patriarchal views taking over the horror genre. Just like the final girl, The Whorrors are fighting their way to the top and it’s not something you want to miss!
As an English major and horror movie fan, I absolutely love this podcast.
The dynamic between these two hosts is so entertaining, and the critical analysis of the films is engaging and compelling (especially as it often leans into feminist and queer readings, which is my bread and butter.)
This show has become one of my comfort podcasts because of the lovely vibe these two have. 🥰

Horror movies have always been extremely upsetting to me to say the least yet here I am every day binge listening to these episodes. 100/10 Recommend this podcast! Looking out for the merch 👀❤️🩹

Two linguistically inclined horror fans dissect gender, power, and cultural critique within genre cinema, blending rigorous analysis with playful banter. Across episodes, they repeatedly spotlight feminist readings, representation, and the politics of fame in horror, while unpacking behind-the-scenes industry dynamics, marketing choices, and fan culture. The show stands out for its academically tinged yet accessible approach, entertaining storytelling, and a willingness to tackle thorny social topics through genre movies and franchises.
Potential listeners should find thoughtful, theory-informed discussions anchored by palpable enthusiasm and a strong emphasis on female-led narratives and empowerment in horror. The format often pairs close... more
