Judy Garland, The Wizard of Oz & Hollywood's Cursed Movie Sets (feat. director Jay Cheel)

Can a film set actually be cursed? If you were a producer on *The Omen* or a background actor on *The Wizard of Oz*, you might believe it. This episode of *The Bombshell Effect* explores Judy Garland's early career, the career-making studio heads that put her on a diet of barbituates and cigarettes, and the urban legends surrounding the filming of *The Wizard of Oz*, and other films where the actors and crew barely made it out alive.  We feature \*special guest* director Jay Cheel, the filmmaker behind V/H/S/BEYOND, Shudder's CURSED FILMS, HOW TO BUILD A TIME MACHINE, and more. He's also the host of Film Junk Podcast.  This podcast is brought to you by the host Kate de los Santos, and our producer July Diaz.
