Episode 02: The Gill-Man / Creature from the Black Lagoon
In this episode, we discuss the iconic Gill-Man from 1954 classic Creature from the Black Lagoon with detours into The Shape of Water and The Thing. We also discuss topics like: how does the Gill-Man challenge human dominance? How do we think about inter-species love and the personhood of monsters (aka the 'Shape of Water' question)? Would it be bad to be 'the Thing', or would that potentially be amazing?... and much more.
