I thought it best if this one was another title treatment. I had never seen this film, so when I watched it the thing that really struck me was he drank blood out of a glass. My first idea was just using a blood ring (like a coffee stain) from the bottom of a cup on a sink/counter. But I found this image of the glass tipped and it was way better.
Paul & Amy sink their teeth into 1973’s visionary vampire film Ganja & Hess! They learn how director Bill Gunn used the success of films like Blacula to get funding for his more experimental work, examine the parallels the film draws between Christianity and vampirism, and explore the role race plays in Gunn’s vision. Plus: a look at how the critical reaction at the time shaped the film’s legacy.
