We're still wrapping up our Cannes coverage with plenty of behind the scenes genre buzz from The Séance, You Know Films' first-of-its-kind digital show about the market’s genre film buzz with partnership from FANGORIA and Paramount Scares.
In this edition of The Séance, hosts Blair Bathory and Gigi Saul Guerrero speak with Mónica García Massagué, Manager of the Sitges Foundation at the International Fantastic Film Festival of Catalonia.
One of the three biggest and most prestigious genre film festivals in the world, Sitges' 58th edition takes place from October 10 to October 19. This year, the fest pays tribute to genre legends Joe Dante and Sean S. Cunningham, as well as celebrating the 40th anniversary of Stuart Gordon's Re-Animator with cast and crew present.
Chatting with Gigi and Blair (both female filmmakers themselves), Massagué speaks on the rise of women behind the camera in horror, mentioning the special fest program Women In Fan and Sitges' drive to program more and more horror made by women.
Watch our exclusive chat with Massagué below and to keep up to date with all wrap-up updates coming from The Séance, make sure you're keeping an eye on and following FANGORIA's socials – Instagram, Facebook and TikTok.
