À propos de cet audio

Writer and director Chris Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky, We Have a Ghost) joins us to talk about his latest thriller, DROP, a tension-filled ride that turns a simple phone feature into pure terror. We dive into his collaboration with Josh Ruben on Heart Eyes, creating an experience with tension, laughs and a bunch of heart, and the moments that make DROP truly unsettling.

But we also dig into the bigger industry conversations...why he parted ways with the Arachnophobia remake, the internet backlash surrounding Scream 7, and Hollywood’s ongoing fear of queer horror. Chris opens up about writing a major horror IP with a gay lead only for the project to be shut down..and the frustrating reality of studios playing it safe.

Plus, AirDrop horror stories, the therapy hidden in his films, and so much more so...

COME HANG OUT!!!
