A cursed deep dive into Cursed

Wes Craven's 2005 werewolf film Cursed had all the makings of a horror comedy classic on paper: A zany LA werewolf premise, hip early 2000s leads like Christina Ricci, Skeet Ulrich, and Jesse Eisenberg, and the Craven/Kevin Williamson partnership that had previously birthed the Scream franchise. But Cursed would not become a classic. Instead, it would go down in history as one of the most troubled film productions of the 21st century. How and why did this happen? Is the resulting movie any good? Do Jesse Eisenberg and Milo Ventimiglia kiss in it? Find out the answers to all of these questions and more in my CURSED deep dive into CURSED.
