Like all forms of art, horror has been used to tell stories about women and their struggles in a male-dominated world.

Films like The Babadook, Ginger Snaps, and A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night all convey a pro-female stance whilst also standing up as a great horrors in their own right.

A 2022 edition to the catalogue of feminist horror films is Run Sweetheart Run, directed by Shana Feste. It stars Ella Balinska as Cherie, a woman who finds herself in the crosshairs of a misogynistic demon out for female blood.

As well as being your typical "girl on the run" style film, the movie goes a lot deeper, exploring the historical and current relationship between men and women whilst attempting address the imbalance of gender-related power.

Also, a character played by Clark Gregg is married to a character played by Betsy Brandt. It's the Marvel/Breaking Bad crossover we've all been waiting for!

Well-acted, gory, and with good intentions behind it, Run Sweetheart Run is one for the horror viewer who wants more than to just see people get their heads chopped off.

Although, it's got that too.
