In this special episode of 13 Degrees of Screams, we sit down with Matthew I. Schmidt — the writer, director, and editor behind the chilling indie horror film Mr. Sandman. Together, we dive deep into the horror genre, exploring Matt’s inspirations and interests, and the unique experience of filming right out of his own home. We also unravel the creepy concept of the dream world and how it shaped the unsettling atmosphere of his work. Plus so much more!

A huge thank you to Matt for joining us and sharing his vision with our listener. Want to experience the nightmare for yourself? You can watch Mr. Sandman now, streaming free on Tubi.
