The Fellowship is pleased to present this year's Horror Month, in which we're discussing films starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. Week 3 brings us two more Hammer movies, The Mummy (1959) and The Gorgon (1964). We discuss story and plot, cultural appropriation in film, more background than you probably care about, and a bunch of stuff in between. Plus our usual tangents galore and our comics picks of the week.Announcements:
We found a way to do our monthly meetups - on Discord! Come hang out with us in the voice channel on the 4th Saturday of the month; details on Facebook & Twitter & the Events tab on our website
We're super excited to announce our partnership with ComicBooks For Kids. Details on the website (and you should be listening to hear more, too 🙂)
