Rigs of Dad Presents - "Subtextual Energy": Exploring Subtext in Horror with Stavros Giannopoulos (The Atlas Moth)

Stavros Giannopoulos plays guitar and sings for the incredible band The Atlas Moth...  He is also a horror film obsessive, so it felt like the perfect way to kick off Halloween Season. We talk specifically about allegory in horror films, exploring classics like The Shining, Mike Flanagan's Midnight Mass, They Live, Get Out, Aliens, and so much more.  Take a deep dive with us as we explore the classics and the new era with an in depth discussion about the current state of horror films, some Friday the 13th news, and more. If you want to hear more of this conversation, the extended version is available to patrons on all tiers at the Rigs of Dad Patreon page FEATURING recent reviews on Candyman, Malignant, and Midnight Mass.   You can even take some deep dives with more of my guests, get some Patreon exclusive swag, and more by checking out the Rigs of Dad Patreon page OR just download the Patreon ap, search for Rigs of Dad, and you can support creators like me and so many more in the process!   Be sure to keep up with all things The Atlas Moth by following them at @theatlasmoth and get some of the best pizza in the Chicago area from Dante's Tavern.
