Summary
Show Notes: This week I had a conversation with the writers behind the short called Hystericus about a giant vulva monster, Jessica Lauren Richmond and Peyton Blackmer. Men, if you’re unsure of what that is, go google it. They told me where the idea for the short came from, how they found their cast, and what it’s been like taking it on the festival circuit. Jessica, who also directed the short, revealed her favorite horror directors that inspired her on the set, and they reveal their future plans for Hystericus after their festival run is finished. We also get into a pretty rad discussion about The Blair Witch Project towards the end! Apologies up front for my mic being pretty low but you’re not here to hear me speak so hopefully it’s OK.
