CW: Rape, Child Abuse, Eating Disorders

It’s Cannibal Week on Pod Sematary! Chris & Kelsey check out two films about familial cannibalism, including one from listener James! Thanks, James!

The Classic Film: Title (Year)
"A young boy living in 1950s suburbia suspects his parents are cannibalistic murderers" (IMDb.com). This quirky gem scared the bejeezus out of Kelsey when she was probably too young to be watching it. Will it live up to her childhood memory?

The Modern Film: Title (Year)
"An innocent teenager, studying to be a vet, develops a craving for human flesh" (IMDb.com). Raw got a lot of buzz a few years ago on the indie circuit, but is that praise unwarranted?

Get more at podsematary.com! Ironically, there are no Afterthoughts this week, but be sure to follow us on Twitter at @PodSematary to get them live in the future!
