Listen "#5 Ganja and Hess"
Episode Synopsis
Judge a Book By it's Cover - a Little City Library Podcast is briefly moving away from Novellas to reviewing/judging films by their posters!
This month, we're talking about Ganja and Hess, a 1973 experimental Horror Film directed by Bill Gunn and available via Kanopy- our libraries streaming service. Bizarre is the name of the game as we talk ancient cursed daggers, vampires that aren't vampires, and purposefully disjointed storytelling. Below are a few articles we reference or mention in the podcast for those who are interested.
