HMSG Interview Billy Hanson & Paul Inman - "Keys to the Kingdom"

“What if Stephen King’s Dollar Baby filmmakers had their own terrifying tales to tell?”

For decades, the Dollar Baby program gave filmmakers the rare chance to adapt King’s short stories for just $1. Now, for the first time, these masters of suspense and horror are unleashing their OWN ORIGINAL nightmares in one chilling collection.

KEYS TO THE KINGDOM — a fiction anthology of dark, twisted, and unforgettable stories from the creatives who walked the road paved by the King himself.

This incredible project is being helmed by BILLY HANSON & PAUL INMAN! And will include a story by our very own JULIA MARCHESE from Horror Movie Survival Guide! 

We got to chat with the writers about their stories, King-Con & of course Stephen King!
