"We Are the Weirdos: meet the women changing the face of horror":
Being a devoted horror fan is one thing, but in recent years we’ve seen a number of women step behind the camera, as part of what has been called a "new wave" of female horror directors. Jennifer Kent’s The Babadook, for instance, combined traditional scares with a moving tale of grief and mental illness, while Julia Ducournau’s Raw used a veterinary school setting — a frightening hotbed of sex, desire and everyday gore — to spin a skin-crawlingly intimate family cannibal tale.
