On this episode of the Coolest Alive, host Jesse Blaze Snider talks about Antlers (2021), produced by Guillermo del Toro and directed by Scott Cooper, which is a chilling folk-horror tale set in a decaying Oregon town. Teacher Julia Meadows (Keri Russell) and her sheriff brother Paul (Jesse Plemons) investigate a troubled student tied to a tragic, wendigo-like creature born from family trauma and desperation. Atmospheric, slow-burn suspense meets visceral creature design in this modern monster story. We explore its eerie blend of myth, rural decay, and primal fear that lingers long after the screen fades.
