A few Halloweens ago, we featured an indie horror short (Chompers) by director Jesse Blanchard and Portland-based studio, Goat & Yeti Productions. While I’m not sure what came of that particular short, it seems that Blanchard and his team at Puppetcore have continued to explore the “puppet horror subgenre” and their latest project looks to […]

For instance, our resident wrestlehead—Adam Frazier—has co-written a horror film! FERAL, directed by Mark H. Young (Wicked Blood, Tooth and Nail), finds “six grad students on a weekend hike in the woods. One by […]
The future is… THEN!
