## Resource

Ryan and Jonas discuss the wildly original indie horror creature feature Haunted House of Pancakes . We’re joined by writer/director Nathan Dalton and writer Paul Newton for a deep dive into the film, independent horror filmmaking, and why fun horror movies matter, especially in dark times. We break down the movie, explore the creative process behind low-budget horror, and talk about what makes indie horror such a vital and exciting space for genre fans. If you love creature features, independent horror films, practical effects, and offbeat horror concepts, this episode is for you. Tune in for a conversation about horror, filmmaking, creativity, and the enduring power of fun, unapologetically weird horror.
