Description:

Bill Gunn's groundbreaking 1973 art-horror film "Ganja & Hess" tells the story of an anthropologist (Duane Jones, "Night of the Living Dead") who becomes a vampire shortly before meeting a complex and elegant woman (Marlene Clark, "Switchblade Sisters") who challenges his existence. With gorgeous cinematography by James E. Hinton and experimental music by Sam Waymon, "Ganja" is a unique experience in the world of horror that transcends genre and time period. Andrew, Kate and Amy relate their impressions of the film and whether or not today's audiences would embrace it.
