Fear on Film Podcast - Interview with Matt Stuertz - Director of The Film Human

Get ready, horror fans! On the next episode of the Fear on Film Podcast, we are diving headfirst into the digital abyss. We sit down with visionary writer and director Matt Stuertz to dissect his absolutely bonkers new horror feature, Human (released by Dark Sky Films).

The film follows Dani Ferris (played by the incredible Jackie Kelly), a woman alone in a film studio past midnight, looking for a bit of digital distraction on her phone. Instead, an unsettling interruption spirals into a chaotic, front-row roller coaster of absolute madness. Matt opens up to us about how a real, creepy texting exchange inspired the script, why 1980s studio horror heavily influenced the movie's look, and what it truly means to be human in an era dominated by screen time.

So, join us on Fear on Film ...Where Where Horror Lives!
