The End of the World with Michael and Stu
The Apocalypse is Everywhere. The End of the World with Michael and Stu is a (hopefully) insightful and (hopefully) humorous exploration of the rise of apocalyptic news, apocalyptic thinking and apocalyptic culture. Each week, we’ll be looking at a work of art, a piece of media, or an historical event related to the (hopefully not) impending End of the World.
The End of the World with Michael and Stu
106: And I'll Hear You Scream Again
This week we are discussing 90s failed blockbuster sci-fi Alien meets Hellraiser movie Event Horizon, directed by Paul W.S. Anderson. This is, I believe, our shortest episode to date, and we spend most of our discussion pointing out the absurdity of many aspects of the film, while also attempting to get to the bottom of just what it was about this picture that so terrified a teenage Stu, because...let's just say we were not adequately frightened on this rewatch.
We open the episode briefly discussing the newly released Epstein Files, a topic to which we will return next week in a full news episode breaking down the self-dismantling world in which we live.
