Notes:

POISON is the second feature directed by Todd Haynes. Inspired by the writings of Jean Genet, POISON deftly interweaves a trio of transgressive tales - “Hero”, “Horror” and “Homo” - that build toward a devastating climax. “Hero,” shot in a mock TV-documentary style, tells a bizarre story of suburban patricide; “Horror”, filmed like a delirious ‘50s B-movie melodrama, is a gothic tale of a mad sex experiment; while “Homo” explores the obsessive sexual relationship between two prison inmates. Supplemental materials include: new introduction by Todd Haynes; Sundance Q&A; archival 1999 audio commentary by Haynes, Christine Vachon, and star/editor James Lyons; booklet essay by Dennis Lim; original 1991 U.S. theatrical trailer.
