A masked killer, a 12-day shoot, a whole lot of blood, and a pro wrestler calling the shots on the stunts! Dead Of Night director Derek Sulek, John Hennigan (aka AEW’s Johnny TV), and actress Kirrilee Berger go behind the scenes of the new slasher movie! Derek reveals how the real-life Night Stalker murders and horror classics like Scream inspired the story, how they created the terrifying Dark Figure, and why one of the movie's bloodiest massacres wasn't even part of the original shoot! John breaks down bringing his pro wrestling moves to horror movie fight choreography, his gruesome video store cameo, and the challenges of keeping everyone safe while making the kills look brutal! Kirrilee shares what it took to play Kelly Weaver, why she insisted on doing her own stunts, and how she kept track of who's dead and who's still alive while filming out of sequence! Plus, the bloody finale that almost wasn't, the Hollywood stars joining the body count, and plans to turn Dead Of Night into a full-blown horror franchise! Chris also shares what went into the movie from his side as executive producer! Get tickets for the special cast & crew Q+A screening of Dead Of Night with Executive Producer Chris Jericho at the AMC 16 Burbank on Friday, November 13th! https://www.amctheatres.com/movies/dead-of-night-q-a-with-cast-crew-and-ep-chris-jericho-85221 Talk Is Jericho is available on YouTube! https://www.youtube.csom/ChrisJerichoFozzyLike, Subscribe, and hit the 🔔 to stay updated on new episodes! More from Talk Is Jericho:📸 Instagram: @chrisjerichofozzy | @talkisjericho🐦 Twitter/X: @IAmJericho | @TalkIsJericho🎵 TikTok: @chrisjericho🌐 Website: https://www.webisjericho.com/
