208 | The Old Ways

Ever wondered if goats' milk can rid you of demons? We welcomed back Rowan from It Slays podcast to learn about just that by watching The Old Ways, a 2020 folk horror film that follows a Mexican-American reporter who returns to her hometown but finds herself accused of being possessed by a demon. We discuss the folklore explored in this film, how addiction plays out in the possession genre, and our newly coined genre "horror for pretentious teenagers."
