We think we know everything about mermaids based on what we see in films, but when all these films are so different, who knows what? Join me as I take a deeper dive into mermaid films past and present, exploring merfolk in romance, comedy, horror, and kids' TV specials clearly made to sell toys. This is a shellebration of all the different ways merfolk are interpreted, and the cultural and social meanings behind mermaid symbology. Ready to take the dive? Join the club!
