Interviews

We Summon the Darkness (read our review – here) is a horror-comedy that doesn’t take itself too seriously and it doesn’t expect you to either. The satiric little gem fresh out of 2019’s Fantastic Fest is amusing entertainment, which I am welcoming very freely these last few weeks because of …

This last November, I had the opportunity to host the Indie Horror Director’s Panel at Days of the Dead Chicago. I was so inspired by all of the directors. I would be remiss if I didn’t say that Director Jason Zink absolutely stood out! The way he talked about his …

The Lodge is one of my most highly anticipated movies of 2020. After the incredible Goodnight Mommy, a chilling and unsettling thriller out of Austria, I could not wait to see the English language follow up by filmmaking duo, Veronkia Franz and Severin Fiala. And oh, damn. The Lodge is …

Over the course of my time at PopHorror, I have gotten to interview some amazing people, and today’s interview is no exception. Christopher Convery, star of Brahms: The Boy II, is the youngest person I have questioned to date, and I can tell you, he is going to be force …

Uber producer Ant Timpson has already gifted us with so many genre favorites like Turbo Kid, The Greasy Strangler, Deathgasm, The ABCs of Death, and The Field Guide to Evil. So when it was announced that he was going to direct his first feature, you can only imagine the excitement …
