Greetings to all in the In Search of Darkness world!
I hope everyone's enjoying their sizzling summer, despite sweltering temperatures, and treating themselves to a cool, dark space with fresh buttered popcorn, your favorite beverage and, of course, a great horror flick. Something from the '90s, perhaps?
With In Search of Darkness: 1990-1994, I am at the stage where production and post-production bleeds and blends with one-another; I'm furiously scripting film segments and chapters, all the while filming brand-new interviews as hoped-for talent becomes available in our post-strike entertainment industry environs.

On the post-production front, we have already assembled three hours of the rough cut of ISOD: 1990-1994 -- with no signs of stopping at that running time. So much great movie material to mine, and with such invigorating and unexpected conversations being had, I'm planning to pack this new doc just like the previous '80s-era instalments of In Search of Darkness: Till it overflows!
New talent onboard includes A-list Hollywood screenwriter James V. Hart, the man who wrote Bram Stoker's Dracula for Francis Ford Coppola and was an on-set witness to the glorious insanity; Pinhead himself, Doug Bradley, returning to share his perspective on Nightbreed and the evolution of the Hellraiser franchise in the '90s; and the iconic Ernest Dickerson (Spike Lee's main-man cinematographer, and top-notch horror director who helmed Tales From the Crypt: Demon Knight), who shared that he almost directed Se7en, and whose tastes include cosmic horror!

Just in the last two weeks, I sat down with Severin guru David Gregory in Los Angeles, who loves to lean into Italian horror discussion; and none other than Jörg Buttgereit -- the controversial German filmmaker who brought us Nekromantik and the banned-in-his-own-country sequel, Nekromantik 2 -- straight from Berlin!
I should stop now before I give too much away. And, so I can get back into a nice air-conditioned room -- either our studio, or the editing bay!
