A content warning to all of our listeners: we're discussion rape revenge movies, their history, and their place in our current cultural environment. Which may not be the discussion for you! We look at the genre's beginnings and how women in film are reclaiming it to make their own statements.

Homework for the episode: The Last House on the Left (1972, dir. Wes Craven); Revenge (2017, dir. Coralie Fargeat); Promising Young Woman (2020, dir. Emerald Fennell)
