Episode Eleventeen: Cars

The Wonderful World of Darklords

Welcome to Wonderful World of Darklords! In this episode, we discuss possibly the most iconic villain remaining to us: Tow Mater. Subjects discussed include:

• The nightmarish vision of Cars 2, Pixar's horror masterpiece, in which everyone is forced to cater to the whims of a madman no matter how outrageous and unfunny he becomes;
• The cosmic horror implications of a setting populated entirely by sentient cars, where all humanoids are presumably extinct;
• Some thoughts of Mater's son, Tom Mater, being Carlos De Vil's car in the Descendants series, and how to incorporate that foreshadowed dark romance with Cruella's car into your game;
• How to age down a movie in which Rod Redline is literally tortured to death onscreen;
• And more!
