Ep. 68 - Scare Bears feat. Zack Bornstein (Birdboy / Unicorn Wars)

Today we’re joined by Zack Bornstein, the Emmy-nominated, WGA and Peabody Award-winning writer from shows like SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE and SHRINKING, to answer the question: what if the Care Bears were in ANTICHRIST? The animated films of Alberto Vázquez are full of cuddly talking animals, but also graphic gore, human-looking genitalia, and possibly clinical depression. We’ll be discussing his two unrelentingly bleak features: 2015’s coming-of-age horror drama BIRDBOY: THE FORGOTTEN CHILDREN, and 2022’s epic splatter film UNICORN WARS.
