READY OR NOT / SOCIETY: Eat the Rich

In our first episode, the Cadaver Dogs (Devin, David, and Rob) compare the classist themes in READY OR NOT (2019) and SOCIETY (1989). Demonic devotion or trans-species relation: what is the source of our class struggles? Do the rich really feed upon the poor? And how does our political era affect the horror genre?

 

We explore the flawed belief systems of the wealthy and the fear of Trumpism when digging into Radio Silence’s film starring Samara Weaving, Adam Brody and Andie MacDowell. Then, we go back to the Saved by The Bell surf 80s, Reaganomics era and dive into the incestuous aristocracy through Brian Yuzna’s body horror camp classic starring Billy Warlock.

Listen to the end for extra special Bone Reviews.
