Butterfly Kisses - S6 E3

About this episode

Eryka and Jackie explore the found-footage horror film Butterfly Kisses, discussing its themes and narrative structure.

This week, Eryka and Jackie are staring unblinkingly into Butterfly Kisses — the found-footage nightmare that asks the very reasonable question: what if blinking was a fatal mistake? 👀 When a struggling filmmaker uncovers an urban legend about an entity that moves closer every time you blink, he does the only logical thing… documents it obsessively while everything falls apart. What starts as a creepy myth turns into a meta horror spiral full of unreliable footage, frayed nerves, and eyes that should really stay open. Grab some eye drops, lock your gaze, and pull up a chair at the Café — because this legend doesn’t just want to be believed… it wants to be watched.
