Horror Movies to Make you Seem Cool at Parties (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are a lot of horror movies that are classics for a reason.

These could all be helpful to people at any level of indie filmmaking, but I think they will be especially helpful to those just getting started.Some of this will be NYC specific because that’s where I’m based and have experience, but those resources may still be helpful. 🩸🌲 While you are here, check out the trailer for my movie The Woods, available now on <a href="https://www.am
