In this episode of The Killer Point Of View Podcast, we slow things down to dissect the eerie elegance of The Others (2001). We kick things off by asking a bigger question: what’s missing in today’s horror landscape?

We break down the haunting atmosphere of the film and explore what makes a slow burn horror story work. Is it pacing, character development, or emotional payoff? From there, we dive into whether The Others should be viewed as a horror movie or as a heartbreaking family drama that just happens to be haunted.

Of course, we couldn’t talk about The Others without unpacking that unforgettable twist. Where does it rank among the best horror endings of all time? We also dig into the hidden meanings and thematic layers within the film—grief, guilt, isolation, and the fear of the unknown.

Plus, we give our official Killer Point Of View rating, share some movie recommendations, have a non-spoiler discussion about the newest Final Destination and Fear Street movies, and tease what’s coming next on the podcast.
