Creepy Kids

Studio 360

“Monster” is often a synonym for “big” but often Hollywood monsters come in small packages. There are more movies about kids turning into monsters than you might think. And two film critics, Julian Cornell, a professor of cinema studies at Queens College and NYU film school, and Owen Gleiberman, a film critic for Entertainment Weekly, tell us why. Produced by Jocelyn Gonzales.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
