Episode 118 - The Silence of the Lambs (1991)

Welcome to the Horror Project Podcast. Join hosts Laura and Phil as they review The Silence of the Lambs (1991).

This week we tackle this 90s psychological thriller that follows FBI trainee Clarice Starling as she is tasked with getting information from the brilliant yet psychopathic Hannibal Lecter to help catch serial killer Buffalo Bill.

We chat about the vulnerable Starling, trying to hold her own in the male-dominated FBI. Anthony Hopkins is unforgettable as the charming yet terrifying Lecter. While some elements like Lecter's inappropriate quid pro quo relationship with Starling have not aged well, we're looking at you Buffalo Bill!?!? 

Clarice Starling's journey is an inspirational one as she tries to succeed in a man's world, batting off sexism and unwanted advances while staying determined to catch a killer and launch her career.

Plus we shall be finding a place on the leaderboard for the movie during our Ranking.

We hope you enjoy the show, thanks for listening!
