This week we chat with filmmaker Damian McCarthy, the writer/director of the very scary movies Oddity and Caveat! We chat about the imposing house they shot in, the funny/creepy easter egg, and so much more before exploring Damian's childhood horror history. And then we dive into Hideo Nakata's Ringu and why it terrified Damian as a teenager. We discuss it and the remake, the existential dread of the video tape, urban legends and so much more.

Damian isn't really on social media much, but you can follow his Instagram. Check out Oddity in theaters! It's a great experience in a theater.
