See two episodes of ArchaeoDuck featuring Dr. Chloe Duckworth and osteologist Dr. Lauren McIntyre. Learn all about what happens to the human body after death, by examining when TV and the movies get it right ... and when they get it hilariously wrong! This includes footage of (fake) human remains from movies and TV, and discussion of the processes of decay that archaeologists use for interpretation. Productions reviewed include “Twin Peaks,” “Jaws III,” and the 1932 and 1999 versions of “The Mummy.”
