Cursed
The Mikes are bitten by something worse than a werewolf...studio interference!!!!
It's (technically) Wes Craven's aptly titled Cursed on this next instalment of Forgotten Horror!
In this 2005 werewolf film, Christina Ricci and Jesse Eisenberg play brother and sister who after a car accident involving a werewolf, start to feel themselves change and have to figure out a way to stop their curse before they become monsters themselves.
Listen in as Mike Field and Mike Butler discuss how this film is an absolute hot mess; from the writing, to the story, to the pacing. Then the Mikes will discuss WHY this film is an absolute hot mess, and its name is Bob Weinstein. The film was reshot twice with three different endings, special effects legend Rick Baker was let go from the project, Craven lost out on a directing job he was weeks away from filming, and numerous big named actors pulled out or were cut completely during these massive reshoots and rewrites.
So, grab your silver bullets and flea collars, please notice the full moon to your left and say a prayer for Forgotten Cinema.
