Shrink Chat - From Dead Alive to Goodnight Mommy + Mommie Dearest Trivia

It’s Mother’s Month on Terror Talk! In this Shrink Chat episode, we dive headfirst into the creepy, complex, and unhinged world of terrifying mothers in horror and thriller films. From the grotesque mother-son nightmare of Dead Alive to the manipulative matriarch in The Manchurian Candidate, we explore how these mother figures get under our skin—and sometimes into our nightmares.

Featured Films:

  • Dead Alive

  • The Manchurian Candidate

  • Inside

  • The Grifters

  • Goodnight Mommy

  • The Fighter

  • Plus: Mommie Dearest Trivia – “No wire hangers, ever!”

🧠 What We Cover:

  • The psychology of frightening mothers: control, enmeshment, emotional manipulation

  • Differences in parenting pathology across horror and drama

  • Why some of these moms haunt us more than the monsters

  • Our unfiltered reactions to their most unhinged moments

  • “Mommie Dearest Facts with Cath” – a trivia game packed with absurd quotes and film lore
