Their horror short film begs the question, but what if a woman had control over a man's body? In this FilmQuest Filmmaker episode of Horror Babe Show, Chelsea sits down with filmmakers Deana Taheri and Emily Dhue to talk about their feminist horror short “Bill.” The film explores a world where a woman has control over a man’s body — intentionally reversing the power imbalance women experience so often in real life. Originally developed as a stage play, Bill was later adapted into a short film and shot almost entirely in Deana’s mom’s kitchen, proving that bold ideas matter more than big budgets. If you're a female / LGBTQ+ filmmaker, you'll want to watch this very raw and real episode.
