In this latest episode host Kat Ellinger explores the concept of monstrous motherhood and feminine rage in chthonic form for two incredibly complex subversive films.

Previously banned in the UK under the heading of video nasty, Andrzej Żuławski's Possession tackles the subject of gothic hysteria and mad love in his usual beautifully excessive melodramatic mode. When Anna (Isabelle Adjani) tries to leave her husband Mark (Sam Neill) for not one, but two lovers, their marriage becomes an ugly battle ground. Meanwhile David Cronenberg's The Brood looks at internalised rage and trauma birthed into murderous children by a bizarre form of alternative therapy (starring Oliver Reed, Samantha Egger, and Art Hindle).
