We're back from break and we're talking about the hit horror tv series Welcome to Derry on HBO. In this episode of Fear & Wine, Kelli, Kristin, Leah, and Alisan dive into the chilling world of 'Welcome to Derry,' a prequel to Stephen King's 'It.' The conversation kicks off with our excitement about the return of our favorite reality tv competition show, 'The Traitors,'. We express concerns about the potential impact of outside influences on reality TV, particularly regarding the authenticity of the contestants' experiences. As we transition into discussing 'Welcome to Derry,' we share our initial reactions to the show's opening scene, which features a bizarre and grotesque birth in a car, setting the tone for the series.

THE LODGE. In this episode of Fear & Wine, we discuss the psychological horror film 'The Lodge,' exploring its themes of trauma, grief, and family dynamics. We reflect on winter activities that evoke nostalgia, contrasting childhood innocence with adult responsibilities. The conversation delves into the elements of folk horror and the dark past of the character Grace, setting the stage for tension and suspense in the film. We talk about the complexities of family dynamics during a divorce, exploring themes of isolation, manipulation, and the psychological struggles faced by both parents and children. Trapped in a snowy cabin, tensions rise, leading to a dark and tragic resolution that highlights the consequences of unresolved trauma and the desperate measures taken to protect loved ones.
