"Witchcraft in general is such a charged word. We literally house babies in our stomachs. That's some Ridley Scott shit." Sequel month is getting witchy as The Wives Colangelo are joined by the incomparable Alexandra Heller-Nicholas to discuss the highly controversial lega-sequel, THE CRAFT: LEGACY. Does this movie deserve all the hate it gets? Could this have been a beloved movie if it wasn't saddled with the name of a sacred IP? Will we ever get a "woke Timmy" spinoff? We're calling the corners and trying to find the answers, will you be our fourth? --- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom ---- MONTHLY SUPPORT SPOTLIGHT Help Nina Nguyen Make Her Comedy Special: DREAMS! https://seedandspark.com/fund/dreams-comedy-special#story Help Rekha Shankar Make Her Movie: Vidhya's Guide to the Afterlife! rekhamovie.com ---- Follow our guest!

Every week, This Ends at Prom digs into a single film to explore how stories about teenage girls shape our understanding of womanhood itself. Hosts BJ and Harmony Colangelo, a married couple, bring their distinct queer and feminist perspectives-one cisgender, one transgender-to these conversations, creating a unique and essential dialogue. They’re less interested in simple nostalgia and more focused on the lasting cultural impact of these movies, asking what they truly say about power, identity, and survival. You’ll hear thoughtful analysis that celebrates the genre while also critically examining its flaws and hidden depths. This isn't just a film review show; it's a deep dive into the artifacts of our youth and how they continue to define us. Produced by Pod People Productions, the podcast finds profound resonance in the hallways, bedrooms, and climactic prom scenes of cinema, revealing why these specific stories stick with us long after the credits roll. Each episode feels like a compelling chat between friends who are unafraid to challenge each other and the material, making for listening that is as insightful as it is engaging. Tune in for a fresh take on the films you thought you knew.
