Ingrid Jungermann’s feature debut smacks of 90’s lo-fi comedies like Spanking the Monkey, but the film is wholly unique. With self-deprecating humor laced throughout— Brooklynites will appreciate references to holier-than-thou co-op volunteers—Women Who Kill is a love triangle between two ex-girlfriends who podcast about female serial killers.
Jungermann plays Morgan, who is the point on the triangle between timid Jean (Ann Carr) and sultry Simone (Sheila Vand). The director's foray into features follows a successful run in web series as the creator of The Slope and F to 7th, which has recently been picked up for pilot development.
No Film School sat down with Jungermann during the film’s Tribeca Film Festival premiere to talk about making the transition from web series to feature filmmaking, the challenges of directing oneself, and more.
"People are a little short-sighted on how you can shoot a comedy."
