Science and the Evolutionary Monster

I really enjoyed this article, ‘Evolutionary Theory and its Monstrous Wonders’ by Donna McCormack. It resonated with the ideas regarding hybridity and monstrosity that I have been exploring in my chapter on Whitley Strieber’s werewolves. It has also got me very excited about the next episode of The X-Files (1993-), ‘Mulder and Scully meet the Were-Monster’. (Cue much squeeing and unnecessary diversions into theorising the episode which I am sure my viewing-partner will love).

If you are also a fan of The X-Files, it is worth catching up with Science Fiction Film & Television, Vol. 6, Issue 1 (2013) which includes plenty of articles on the series.
