What is this?
Deeper Into Movies is an ongoing investigation into the great questions of modern cinema, like what is the best flag of a fictitious country or why in horror movies it’s always the dad who insists on moving into a haunted house.

I’m Celia Mattison, a writer, marine enthusiast, and moviegoer in Queens. I’ve screened films for the Alamo Drafthouse’s Fantastic Fest and the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Film Festival. You might have seen me in Vulture, Bright Wall Dark Room, or Literary Hub.
