In this week's interview episode the gang is joined by writer/director Sam Freeman to discuss his trope-defying found footage horror film Don’t Look In The Dark, which is taking the festival circuit by storm and won an award at the ninth annual Unnamed Footage Festival! They discuss the origins of this highly unique concept (as well as what influenced it), Sam’s history in filmmaking from Jewish Day School to attending NYU and beyond, their collective thoughts about the Scream franchise (along with updated rankings and a cameo from one of the paintings featured in Scream 4), the death of Spirit Airlines, how much innovation is still possible in the found footage space, and so much more!
