A cinematic and labyrinthine take on pulp horror, Ken White’s screenplay-in-verse is a monster mash-up of forms and languages, facades and carnal catastrophes, archaic languages and misplaced rhetorics—a campy, fantastical gender-bending transformation into the inadvertently divine.https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/DCFPOE005010POE0230401KBB-US-WPCADCCFYMVXQMBisclavretGetty MuseumLos Angelesmash-upmedieval literaturepost-medievalismwerewolvesThe Getty Fiendhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2f332024-05-23
