Listen "[Unlocked] You Should Watch Scavengers Reign"
Episode Synopsis
Hey everyone! Something came up and so I won't be able to release another free episode in June. To make up for that, I'm releasing this Patreon episode to the main feed. If you want a bit more detail, you can check out this Patreon post: https://www.patreon.com/posts/defeat-107021276 I kind of regretted pay-walling this one anyway, especially since I want to spread the word about this wonderful show. So enjoy! Jackal joins Josiah to discuss the animated New Weird series, Scavengers Reign and, ultimately, pitch you all on watching it. They try to avoid spoilers as they discuss body and environmental horror, the influence of Jeff VanderMeer, the return of working class sci-fi, and also a little bit about AI, Starfield, and the Gaia Hypothesis.ReferencesScavengers (2016), https://www.shortfilmwindow.com/scavengers/Scavengers Reign, Season 1 (2023), Netflix."Savage Planet: How ‘Scavengers Reign’ Creators Evolved Their Acclaimed Short into a Thrilling Sci-Fi Series," Jeff Spry in Animation Magazine, https://www.animationmagazine.net/2023/10/savage-planet-how-scavengers-reign-creators-evolve-their-acclaimed-short-into-a-thrilling-sci-fi-series/Music creditsScavengers Reign Theme - Nicolas SnyderUnreal - SHADE08After Dark - SHADE08
