GROTESQUERIE AND GRIEF: ABORTION IN HORROR MEDIA. A column by me at the First Things blog.

…And yes, I moronically said that David Lynch and David Cronenberg are the same person. As exciting as that horror-movie premise would be, it’s false, and I’m about to email FT to ask them to correct the post.
