In this very special edition of the Audio Supplement, I interview Tim Cruz, the director of Tubi exclusive slasher film The Final Rose (2022). We talk widely about the film, how it came about, and Cruz’s conception of it. He even lets me in on the possibility of a sequel. I conducted the interview on November 4th, 2022. This is a companion to the November 28th, 2022 newsletter issue #251, “Tim Cruz’s Horror Triumph.”
