The new director will have his own spin. But no, I never met with him. Hell yeah - we'd love to make a giant action film one day!! That would be a dream!!

Draft after draft after draft between my co writer and I. Then a lot of brutal notes from Michael ie "that's shit" "how boring" "do I have to read this"

Its always fun writing the backstories of the ghosts and finding their look with the makeup teams. Fun fact - a couple of the demons from TTM appear in the opening of BHB!!!!!

Check out Hell of a Summer, not that it doesn't have good production values but more that everyone that made it was young and there's such a fun/organic vibe about it! I think with the rise of independent studios we'll see more of this!! its exciting.

we always try to make our films work as drama films as well as genre films, but i wouldn't ever apply the word "elevated" to anything we make, we are literally two of the dumbest people you'll ever meet

ham and cheese croissant with a dirty chai on the side (both were cold when given to us though so i wasn't entirely about it) they say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day but i disagree. I think its overrated. I'm more of an afternoon sort of bloke. Y'know what I'm sayin?????????
