Horror

I interviewed Mike Flanagan after his first film Absentia came out. It’s been a while, but I wanted to remind people that it’s out there. It’s one of my favorite Lovecraftian films.

Read the interview here.

Flanagan told me that he’s a huge Lovecraft fan. And it’s really quite interesting how the movie came to be. He wrote: “I live(d) across the street from the tunnel that would eventually become the backdrop for the film, so I knew I wanted to do something involving that creepy tunnel. But I didn’t have a storyline in mind.”

If you have not yet seen the movie, skip the trailer and go in cold. Trust me. It’s a slow burn, but very much worth your time.
