I Do Movies Badly: Introduction to Highbrow Horror (featuring Benny Krown)
Benny Krown returns to I Do Movies Badly for the November (and a little bit of December) theme of Highbrow Horror! The guest whose last appearance was to talk about Abbas Kiarostami has equal pretensions on his mind, discussing his relationship with the horror genre, what it means to be highbrow/arthouse/pretentious, and recommending three horror films that exist well outside the mainstream consciousness: Yorgos Lanthimos’ The Killing of a Sacred Dear (2017), Nobuhiko Obayashi’s House (1977), and Andrzej Zulawski’s Possession (1981).
