She Freak (American Genre Film Archive)

Produktbeschreibung

Fed up with waitressing, Jade Cochran (Claire Brennen) embarks on a new life with a traveling carnival. But she discovers that what lurks behind the curtain doesn’t take too kindly to her backstabbing plans.A gutter-noir reworking Tod Browning’s FREAKS and a valentine to the carnival lifestyle that defined the career of producer David F. Friedman (BLOOD FEAST), SHE FREAK is a snapshot of life, love, and revenge on the grounds of a seedy carnival in Smalltown, USA – complete with crackpot monster make-up effects from Harry Thomas (PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE).Like Devo’s music and Ed Wood’s novels, SHE FREAK creates a synthetic reality that is often preferable to our own.Special Features:Presented in 4K from the original camera negativeArchival commentary with producer David F.
