With Steve out this week, Sean summoned three of our oldest friends. Bruce Christopher (aka Portia Davis), Brandon Coulter (aka Ghus), and Cameron Gawne (resident zookeeper and horror nerd) for a boozy séance and horror hangout.

They kick things off with some horror news, covering the upcoming Alien: Earth series, Robert Eggers' now confirmed to take on A Christmas Carol, and A24’s terrifying Backrooms adaptation.

Then things get paranormal (and kind of unhinged) as they summon the souls of the dead via a spirit board game (a horror movie themed 20 Questions where each of them channels the ghost of a slain horror movie victim, and the others try to guess who died horribly. Spoiler..they get progressively drunker and worse at it.)

So come for the news, stay for the chaos. Light a candle, pour a drink, and join the séance!!!

Hey Horror Fans!!!

This week we are joined by David Joseph Craig and Brian Crano, the filmmakers (and real life couple) behind I Don’t Understand You, a sharp and offbeat dark comedy about an American couple navigating the adoption process while on vacation in Italy. As tensions rise and misunderstandings multiply, the film explores what it means to stay connected when everything around you starts to fall apart...and turn murderous!!

We talk with David and Brian about drawing from their own journey toward parenthood, how they approached the story’s unique mix of humor and discomfort, and why they wanted to center a queer couple whose love isn’t in question. We also get into the pitch perfect performances from Nick Kroll and Andrew Rannells, the grounding warmth of Amanda Seyfried, and the joy of working with Italian legend Nunzia Schiano.

Funny, tense, tender, violent and totally original, this is a conversation you wont want to miss about love under pressure, identity abroad, and the messy beauty of trying to be understood sooo....

Hey Horror Fans!!!

This week we dive into the deep and shark infested waters of Dangerous Animals with filmmaker Sean Byrne!

This film subverts the usual shark horror story, making it clear that while sharks can be very dangerous they are not the real monsters...Man is. Sean breaks down why sending this message was crucial to the story.

We also talk Australia’s unique horror scene and wildlife, the origins of the project, and hear a story of a crew member’s real life shark attack during filming (they are okay!)

Plus Sean shares his Spook’em Scare’em Starter Kit!

If you like horror with some real bite and a powerful message, this one is for you so...

Hey Horror Fans!!!

This week on Mostly Horror, we're joined by writer, producer, and horror legend Jeffrey Reddick—the creator of Final Destination. We dive deep into Jeffrey’s wild journey from writing a Nightmare on Elm Street prequel at age 14 to creating one of horror’s most iconic franchises.

Jeffrey opens up about the state of representation in the industry, sharing personal stories about navigating Hollywood as a queer Black creator. We talk about the pressure to conform, the myth that diversity is a risk, and how films like Sinners are proving just how wrong that is.

We also touch on the origins of Flight 180, the everyday objects that now give people anxiety, the brilliance of Tony Todd, and how Final Destination continues to evolve even without him directly involved.

💀 Plus: Jeffrey’s picks in our Spook’em Scare’em Starter Kit!

It's a time to die for soooo...
