Put that cake down, fatty; we have a new episode of Cinescare to listen to! Join Matt, Joe, Marc and Kathryn as we they dig into the skin-crawling subgenre of wasting away, rapid emaciation, and the body horror of severe physical deterioration. From cursed scales to sleep-deprived paranoia, we break down three films where the scariest thing on screen is what’s happening to the human frame.
- The Machinist (2004)
- Thinner (1996)
- Saccharine (2026)
