Summary
Back when Macabre Daily started in 2020, Lowell and I had a “wish list” of people that we would hope to talk to one day. While there are certainly some familiar names on there that would be on any person’s list, there were also some independent filmmakers who we have a deep respect for. One of them is Chelsea Stardust, whose work behind the camera and behind-the-scenes on the business side of filmmaking is an inspiration that many could learn a lot from. Chelsea has made the outrageously entertaining “Satanic Panic,” made one helluva gut-punch episode of Blumhouse and Hulu’s “Into The Dark” series, and has steeped herself even more in the world of production and mentorship, which has led to her contributions to one of the best horror anthologies out there, “Grind.” We were fortunate enough to see “Grind” as part of this year’s Chattanooga Film Festival, and Chelsea was gracious enough to speak with us about the production and how she got involved. Chelsea also imparts wisdom about what it takes to be a good producer, what she’s learned over the years working with all kinds of industry folks in various capacities, and her passion for helping more women enter the production side of the business. Not to mention, Chelsea’s partner, Sean Keller, makes a “Killer” Halloween Mix! We hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it, and stay tuned for more news about “Grind” soon!
