Want to connect with Tj & Plaideau? Send us a text message.A haunted gumbo, a bayou curse, and an indie crew determined to pull off the wildest horror-comedy to come out of South Louisiana—this conversation goes deep into how “The Fois” became a full-on feature. We sit down with writer-director David Rabalais to unpack the origin of the cursed recipe, the family story at its center, and the gleefully gross folklore that turns a quiet town upside down. It’s equal parts heart and chaos: a pilot returns to inherit his papa’s camp, wakes the ghost of his gumbo-champion mama, and—thanks to a disastrous viral recipe—unleashes a supernatural outbreak that sloshes through the waterways.https://davidrabalaisfilm.com/Voiced by Brian Plaideau Have you been injured?
