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!

Taking a bit of a holiday on this episode of the Mermaid Movie Club. Not really, I just mean we're jetting off to Greece for...stuff and things. Can a troubled college professor complete his life's work and keep his job? What happens when a feisty mermaid goddess gets involved? All this, plus a peek into some Greek mythology, American swimming statistics, and what makes Debbie Harry relevant to this movie. // I mentioned a Red Cross survey somewhere in this show, get a look at it here: https://www.redcross.org/content/dam/redcross/enterprise-assets/pdfs/Water-Safety-Poll-2014.pdf // I also mentioned this video by Courtney Mermaid about tail safety: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-gYhkBFxyA // Visit the all-new Mermaid Movie Club homepage for updates and more: http://mermaidmovieclub.tumblr.com / Follow me on Twitter and Instagram: @mermaidxandria / Like Mermaid Xandria on Facebook: tinyurl.com/xandriafb / Please rate and review on Apple Podcasts!
