Anatomy of a Scream Pod Squad

Bryan and Joe return to wrap up coverage of the latest Boom! Comics run of Hellraiser: Resurrections one-shots. "The Return of The Priest" is written by Sarah Gailey and illustrated by Alessio Avalone (with assistance by Alberto Canale) and concerns the return of Pinhead as he moves through Middle Hell, collecting new acolytes for a revamped Order of the Gash.
It's a solid conclusion, including references to previous issues and a call to action for readers if we want more content.

In this episode of Bodies of Horror, we’re delving into the 2013 found-footage horror film, Afflicted. When a young man diagnosed with a potentially life-threatening brain condition sets off on a trip around the world, an unexpected encounter leaves him facing a very different kind of bodily transformation – and his best friend and travel companion entering into a caregiving role .
Through the lens of disability, Nichole explores chronic illness, bodily autonomy, the complicated relationship between physical ability and quality of life, and what happens when surviving comes at the cost of truly living. After all, immortality isn't much of a gift when your body is no longer your own

Bryan and Joe reconnect with an old friend in Hellraiser Resurrections #4 "Hell's Council", written by Nero Villagallos O’Reilly and illustrated by Francesca Ciregia. Sure Butterball is on the cover, but this issue belongs to Julia Cotton and we couldn't be more delighted!
Plus: "cartoony" art; uncertainty about how characters know each other; and debate about where this could all be headed.

Bryan and Joe cross the halfway point of Boom! comics' Hellraiser Resurrections one-shots with "The Deep Gospel."
Written by Tini Howard and illustrated by Jenna Chan, Issue 3 focuses on Female Cenobite - here renamed Mother Superior - as she ascends from the Nidus to create her own Order and, in the process, become a character in her own right. It's our fave story so far!

Richard Bates Jr.'s Excision (2012) is a fascinating movie that leads us to the intersection of sex, illness, control, and caregiving. It is a film that looks at two bodies that are not “working properly” – one physically, one is “off” behaviorally – and challenges why we treat them so differently.
