Description

We talk about two curious creature features from the 1950s: the very sultry Curse of the Cobra (1955) and Roger Corman's exploitation film The Wasp Woman (1959). I’m joined in this episode by writer Virginie Selavy to discuss Corman's penchant for strong women, the questionable special effects, and the snake POV shots. *** The Final Girls are a UK-based film collective exploring the intersections of horror film and feminism.
