TusCon 48 Horror as Social Commentary
Horror is inherently the greatest genre for social commentary. It preys on our fears, our biases, and our own self-doubt. Since the beginning of film, Horror has been used to get under our skin and into our minds. But this method can also plant the seeds of social change, allowing us to see that what we fear can often be overcome. This panel will explore multiple horror films and a few anime horror classics and discuss the social commentary that each speaks to its respective audience. – James A Sabata, Diana Terrill Clark, Chris Chavez, Tom Deady
 
Recorded Nov 13th Saturday – Panel Room 1 10:00 pm - 11:00 pm
