  • The Crazies. Cabin Fever. The Andromeda Strain
    2024/09/16
    Episode 43: The Crazies, Cabin Fever, and The Andromeda Strain In Episode 43 of Vox Macabre, your host Kit Mann delves into the world of viral outbreaks and biological horror with a look at three films that explore the terrifying possibilities of infection spreading uncontrollably. We begin with The Crazies (2010), a chilling remake of George A. Romero's original 1973 film. Set in a small town where the water supply becomes contaminated with a chemical weapon, we’ll explore how the film taps into our fear of government cover-ups and the loss of control over our own safety. We’ll discuss how the film's use of isolation and paranoia heightens the tension and compare it to other small-town horror settings. Next, we turn to Cabin Fever (2002), Eli Roth's directorial debut that takes body horror to new levels. With its story of a group of friends trapped in a remote cabin while a flesh-eating disease spreads among them, this film is gruesome, visceral, and unflinching. We’ll analyze Roth's use of practical effects, dark humor, and the film’s commentary on human relationships breaking down in the face of disease. How does this film’s over-the-top approach compare to more subtle outbreak films? We’ll break it all down. Finally, we shift gears to the sci-fi classic The Andromeda Strain (1971), based on Michael Crichton's novel. This film focuses on a deadly extraterrestrial microorganism that threatens humanity, and we’ll discuss how the film’s cerebral, procedural approach to an outbreak differs from the more visceral body horror of the first two films. The movie’s tension is rooted in science and technology, and we’ll dive into how its depiction of government and military response to crises remains relevant today. Alongside these deep dives, we’ve got your listener emails, where we respond to questions and comments about previous episodes, exploring your theories and feedback on the films we've covered. We also feature our fan-favorite Campfire Tales segment, where Kit shares another haunting story that’s sure to send shivers down your spine. Whether you’re a horror fan who loves classic infection thrillers or just here for the chills, this episode has something for everyone.Thanks for listening to Vox Macabre!
