On today’s episode of Talking Movies with My Mom, we celebrate Mother’s Day with the High Priestess of Horror, Austin’s Roxy Midnite (aka Anna Marie McBrayer), who joins us again, this time honoring the Protector Mamas in "It’s Alive," "The Others," and "Poltergeist." Roxy helps us dig into why little girls seem to have a direct channel to ethereal spirits, the extreme lengths mamas will go to protect their children against real or perceived threats, and what can happen when our eyes fill with that baby vision.
