Paperhouse and Marianne Dreams

Ren, Adam and special guest Ali Kay delve into Catherine Storr's 1958 novel Marianne Dreams, and the 1990 film based upon it, Paperhouse. We go full children's horror this week, as we encounter a not-father brandishing a hammer, a pencil that makes your drawings come to life, and a sinister company of cyclopian standing stones. The popular 'Texture of the Week' feature also returns, with some memorably unpalatable ice-cream. Heads up for discussion of the father as a threatening and potentially abusive figure, and description of physical assault by a father figure in the context of the dream world.
