In The Seats With....Tara Thorne, Lesley Smith and 'Compulsus'

Romance and Revenge rarely mix.... On this special episode we're going into the way back machine for an interview from a couple of Fantasia Film Fests ago but is now getting it's touring theatrical and VOD run this Nov. 12th. It's time for Compulsus. Driven by rage, empathy, and something she can’t yet name, Wally (Lesley Smith) secretly patrols the streets at night, taking physical revenge on abusive hipster men on behalf of the survivors who can’t. When law-abiding Lou (Kathleen Dorian) enters her world, love and revenge clash, threatening to infiltrate their relationship. Compulsus is ultimately less about the gratuitous revenge but more about that these types of assaults are still happening to this day and is really about the horror's of what we AREN'T seeing, which makes it a much more compelling ride. We had the pleasure of talking with Writer/Director Tara Thorne and Star Lesley Smith about the origins and the experience of it all.
