#184 – Pet | Directed by Carles Torrens (with Rick of Pixel Project Radio)

Tune in as Rick (Pixel Project Radio) collaborates with Arthur for a review and recap of Pet, the 2016 thriller that uses its familiar premise of a man stalking a woman to deploy some interesting and unnerving twists and turns. The debatable efficacy of how this movie explores the psychology and the power play at the core of its tale, an autistic-coded reading of Pet that leads into a tangent about The Babadook, and medical content and plot points that leave the hosts greatly suspending their disbelief comprise some of the talking points for this episode.

Directed by Carles Torrens, Pet stars Dominic Monaghan, Ksenia Solo, Jennette McCurdy, Da’Vone McDonald, Nathan Parsons, Janet Song, and Sean Blakemore.
