As part of a special series in which I’m talking to filmmakers and creators, join me as I sit down with prolific filmmaker Michael Varrati. Known for his unique contributions to both horror and LGBTQ film, Michael delves into his creative process, the intersection of queer identity and horror, and his latest work, 'There's a Zombie Outside,’ which recently screened at the FILMOUT San Diego and Popcorn Frights film festivals. The conversation explores Michael's journey from his early inspirations to the challenges and triumphs of indie filmmaking. Michael also shares insights on the evolving landscape of queer horror and offers advice for aspiring indie filmmakers.
