This week we chat with filmmaker and editor Michael Felker! He's worked with former guests of the show Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead throughout their entire filmography. His latest film is Things Will Be Different, a mind-bending genre film from Rustic Pictures that is going to be released on Friday October 4th! If you're fans of the work that Benson and Moorhead do, this is going to be right up your alley. We chat about working with the actors, coming up with the idea and the personal attachments to the story before exploring Felker's video game and horror history. Then we break format by talking about The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and why it terrified Felker growing up. We chat zombies and monsters and existential and cosmic horror and share our own personal history with the game.

You can follow Felker on Twitter and Instagram. And don't forget to check out his film on October 4th. The less you know about the film, the better!

This week we chat with Stuart Ortiz, the writer/director behind Grave Encounters 1 & 2 as well as Extraterrestrial. We chat with him about his latest movie Strange Harvest: Occult Murder in the Inland Empire, a mockumentary true crime film with cosmic horror overtones. Strange Harvest just premiered at Fantastic Fest 2024 and will be rolling out to other film festivals coming up. Mary Beth and Terry absolutely loved it and it was a joy to be able to chat with Stuart about his film, the world building, his relationship to horror and ultimately why Curse of the Blair Witch terrified him growing up. We chat about the Sci-Fi mockumentary's ability to terrify, Terry shares his story of watching it right before Blair Witch came out and Mary Beth shares her thoughts as a first time watcher.

You can follow Stuart on Instagram. Also be sure to check out his music that he creates as Blac Corset here on SoundCloud or wherever you listen to music! And be sure to keep an eye out for Strange Harvest as it starts its festival run.
