About this listen
In this episode of Final Girls Club, hosts Emily and Sammy discuss the 1962 psychological horror thriller 'Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?' as part of their 'Hag Month' series. They explore the film's portrayal of child star trauma, sibling rivalry, and the societal expectations placed on women. The episode examines the cultural and historical context of the 1960s, the shift in horror from monsters to psychological themes, and the symbolism of the decaying mansion and isolated characters. Emily and Sammy also draw parallels with modern-day child stars and discuss the lasting impact of the film, its performances, and its significance to the hag horror genre.
