Join us for another exciting episode of The Shame List Picture Show as we take a deep dive into the anarchic world of Tank Girl! This week, host Michael Viers is joined by Dr. Susan Kerns, a noted scholar, and essayist, to discuss the cult classic Tank Girl, its subversive take on post-apocalyptic rebellion, and its enduring place in the history of alternative cinema. Dr. Kerns, who has contributed an essay to the upcoming special edition of Tank Girl from Eureka Films, brings her expert perspective on the film’s unique blend of satire, style, and social commentary.
Together, Michael and Susan will unpack the film’s bold visuals, its feminist themes, and how Tank Girl broke the mold of its genre and era. Expect a lively conversation that explores the legacy of this iconoclastic film, the challenges of adapting a beloved graphic novel, and the enduring impact of its fiercely independent spirit. Don’t miss this engaging discussion with one of the foremost voices in film analysis as we explore why Tank Girl still resonates with audiences today!
