If virtual, the discussion begins at 4pm CDT. Please use link to review all details. This film screening explores the pleasure and fascination we experience when consuming horror movies and true crime media. Presenters will draw from analytic philosophy and psychoanalytic theory to explain our attraction to what is frightening and uncertain in our world. By identifying horror genres with attempts to resolve our deepest anxieties, presenters will discuss how horror can help us understand both our clients and ourselves.
