The People Under the Stairs: Wes Craven’s Legacy and an Unusual Mythic Terror

David and Shaun return after an unnecessarily long hiatus to discuss Wes Craven’s work, with special attention to The People Under the Stairs.  We cover the film’s history, its mythical themes and imagery, and just what it says about Craven as a director and creator of the horrific and strange.
