I had the privilege of talking to the director, executive producer, and co-writer of The Creep Tapes: Season 3, Patrick Brice. Season 3 of The Creep Tapes is out tomorrow, September 15th on AMC+ and Shudder and you have to check it out because all 6 episodes are epic. Patrick told me how he fell into writing and directing horror movies, the original intent of writing the first Creep movie, and why they made the decision to make it a series instead of continuing to make movies. He also told me how they were able to shoot an episode of season 3 in New York City without permits, where the name Peachfuzz came from, and how they go about getting their guest stars for each season.
