BODIES BODIES BODIES - a podcast by Matt Feury

Editors - Julia Bloch and Taylor Levy

BODIES BODIES BODIES editors Julia Bloch and Taylor Levy combined their editorial talents, albeit not always at the same time, to craft a sly and satirical take on the horror genre.  Although the two NYC-based editors had never (really) met before, each had a few "prerequisite" genre films to their credits and that experience served them well in the cozy confines of their shared cutting room.

The film's distributor, A24, describes the plot of BODIES BODIES BODIES as such; When a group of rich 20-somethings plan a hurricane party at a remote family mansion, a party game goes awry in this fresh and funny look at backstabbing, fake friends, and one party gone very, very wrong.
