Bones and All: When Love Tastes Like Flesh | Indie Horror Book Review | #61
Some people have commitment issues. Some people have anger issues. And some people have an uncontrollable urge to eat everyone they fall in love with.
This November, the Spooky Frog Podcast is celebrating Thanksgiving Season the only way we know how: with a little cannibalism. In Episode #61, we hit the road with Camille DeAngelis’s 2015 novel Bones & All and Luca Guadagnino’s 2022 film adaptation. We break down the author’s surprising inspirations, the book's crossover YA roots, the radical changes made for the screen (including Sully and that ending), and the unsettling line between romance, appetite, and monsterhood.
Along the way, we ask the tough holiday questions: How much of your Thanksgiving plate are you willing to share? Who gets seated next to Sully? Plus, we check our survival odds, dig into shelf neighbors like Ravenous and Fresh, and chat upcoming Friday the 13th and Krampus events.
