from Rotten Rewind · host rotten rewind
At the halfway point of our Erotic Thriller Summer series, we're taking a deeply uncomfortable dive into the teenage canon of the erotic thriller genre. Starting with Katt Shea's 1992 grunge thriller "Poison Ivy," starring a young Drew Barrymore and finishing with the 1993 Alicia Silverstone breakout "The Crush," we'll be discussing drunk dads, fake tattoos, the obliviousness of young male directors in the genre, and the bonkers American accent of Cary Elwes. This week, we're joined by special guest, Clara Cuccaro, on this descent into jailbait hell. "The Crush" is streaming on Peacock, Hoopla and Shout Factory TV. "Poison Ivy" is unavailable to stream on any legal platforms.
