CINEMA CURSE

The stars at night are big and bright deep in the heart of Hollywood – or, as I like to call it, Hollywoodland. Project Hail Mary, The Drama, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, Mother Mary aren’t even all of the films – or, as I like to call them, motion pictures – discussed by Connor Lloyd Crews, Bri Robert, Scott Heaton, and Daisygreen Stenhouse (plus Nyra York!) in this newest episode of Cinema Curse – or, as I like to call it, Cinema Curse.

The French have invented a lot of things: manicures, connections, ies; but their most diabolical creation to date is certainly what James Quandt coined as New French Extremity, a series of films (largely horror or thriller) from the turn of the century that reveled in excess. Connor Lloyd Crews, Bri Robert, Scott Heaton, & Bella Mazzetti are here today to discuss two such films: High Tension & Martyrs; plus, more.
