Welcome to Pillow Talk, our interview series where we talk to creatives making films dealing with subjects related to Tainted Love (sex, romance, relationships). Since the main feed is biweekly, we'll drop these episodes during our off weeks from time to time!

First up, Amanda Jane Stern is in our virtual bed to discuss her erotic thriller Perfectly Good Moment, which you can watch for free on Tubi! Amanda and DeVaughn chat the recent erotic thriller resurgence, filming with intimacy coordinators, and the film's place in "good for her" horror. SPOILERS for the film from the 00:27:38 timecode onwards!

You got the darker side of relationships in our first episode, now it's time to get sappy with us! We're discussing Spring (2015) directed by Justin Benson & Aaron Moorehead, about a man who escapes to Italy to avoid his personal trauma and ends up falling love with a beautiful woman...who's also a centuries old Eldritch Monster. Can a romance that happens by circumstance be real love or do you just listen to your body? This film is mainly your classic walk & talk style romance, with a mythical body horror twist. Enjoy!

Trigger Warnings: abusive relationships

Welcome to the first official episode of Tainted Love and we're kicking things off on a bleak note! We're taking a look at Resurrection (2022) directed by Andrew Semans, following a woman who's sent into an emotional spiral when her former abuser re-enters her life. We discuss the power this kind of trauma can have on someone and spill into other ares of their life such as family and work. The dynamic between Margaret and David is a complicated one, perfect to discuss here. Is this film cathartic for abusive survivors? You tell us!
