With spooky season upon us, we thought it was a good time to look at some of the latest supernatural and scary content on offer including a new First Nations lead Australian psychological horror that will be in cinemas from this Halloween. ‘The Moogai’ tells the story of Sarah and Fergus, a hopeful young Aboriginal couple who just welcomed their second baby into their family after a very traumatic birth. In what should be a joyous time in their lives becomes sinister when Sarah starts seeing a malevolent spirit that she is convinced is trying to take her baby which leads to a chain of events that show this young couple will do everything they can to protect their family. We reviewed the film and spoke to Jon Bell, it’s writer and director, about the importance of representation of First Nations people on screen and the connection of transgenerational trauma and systemic racism in telling this modern-day horror story.
We also dived into the wonderfully queer world of ‘Agatha All Along’ and its origin story and importance within the Marvel Universe plus we discuss ‘The Substance’, the word-of-mouth sensation that is sparking a lot of conversation and many incredible costume tributes this Halloween.
