On this special swapcast episode, The Grindhouse Girls, Katie and Brit, alongside The Cinedicate's Armand dive deep into the provocative film "Immaculate." We explore its complex themes of body autonomy, reproductive rights, and religious symbolism. From the visceral horror of a priest wielding a "Jesus nail" to the nuanced personal tales of Katie's Catholic upbringing, the discussion intertwines cinematic critique with personal narratives, unveiling the raw intersections of faith, free will, and societal pressure. Whether dissecting the film’s eerie catacomb sequences or debating the feasibility of a second coming via DNA, this episode is an unmissable blend of horror analysis and profound reflection.

- An in-depth discussion on body autonomy and reproductive rights, particularly through the lens of religious beliefs and societal pressures
