On this episode of the Zombie Grrlz Horror Podcast, we celebrate the return of one of the original badass woman characters of horror and sci-fi: Sarah Connor as played by Linda Hamilton. We take a look back at the evolution of Sarah from the girl next door in Terminator, to becoming an iconic action heroine in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, and finally as the ultimate cyborg hunter in Terminator: Dark Fate.
We discuss what makes Sarah such a compelling, aspirational, and yet deeply tragic character. And we have a spirited debate about whether or not the series did her justice in the end.
We also touch bases on holiday shenanigans, hear from a listener who writes music about horror movies, and get the latest dispatch from Ariel’s naked neighbors. Yes, there’s more naked nonsense afoot in the Pacific Northwest!
