Gimme Three - A Series For Cinephiles

Send us a text

We round out our weeks-long celebration of female horror directors by revisiting a 2022 interview with the great Katt Shea, one of Nicholas Ybarra's favorite filmmakers.
Katt Shea started as an actress and worked her way into the director's chair, starting under the Roger Corman umbrella. Her films Stripped To Kill, Streets, and The Rage: Carrie 2 have all garnered cult-film status. But perhaps her most well-known and memorable film is the sizzling 1992 thriller Poison Ivy, starring Drew Barrymore.
In this in-depth discussion, Shea revisits some of her career highlights and gives us a peek into her creative process as she discusses her recent Netflix film, Rescued By Ruby.
