Don’t worry, there are no pranks as part of episode 9, even though it is coming out on the first of April. Save your anxiety about unforeseen pranks and use it instead on the movie we’re covering: Eli Roth’s Green Inferno! We’re joined by actress, singer, writer, and Movie Night Extravaganza’s resident Greta Gerwig correspondent: Lauren Chouinard. She tells us about her upcoming performance in the Bay Area Diverse Musical production of American Psycho the musical. (Book by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, and music & lyrics by Duncan Sheik)[July 12-21st- tickets NOW at: https://www.badmusicaltheatre.com/). She also took a huge risk with us and watched a violent and graphic movie about cannibalism despite not really enjoying the horror genre or Eli Roth as a director. We break this apart and go on some incredibly interesting tangents as we try to understand why some people are inescapably drawn to stories that others find utterly repellant.
