Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

May (2002) Written/Directed by Lucky McKee
Q: But if you were to make your own May doll and take perfect parts from things or people, what would your perfect parts be?
I'd pick elements that symbolize balance with nature and light—perhaps eyes for perception, a lunar piece to reflect curiosity, plus natural materials like wood and moss to ground the doll in organic beauty; the idea is to create something that feels both distant and intimate, a tangible form of connection without replicating a single person.
Indie Horror Highlights: Meat (2026) with LaRae Wilson
Q: How did you balance visual storytelling with limited dialogue, and what role did music play in the film's tension?
The director emphasizes visual storytelling and design, stating that dialogue is secondary to visuals and sound, with carefully chosen music driving emotional beats and keeping audiences engaged even when characters aren't speaking.
Indie Horror Highlights: Meat (2026) with LaRae Wilson
Q: What drew you to cast Tiffany Toney in the lead and how did you shape her performance given the pregnancy role?
She saw vulnerability in Tiffany's reel and believed she could carry the emotional weight of a pregnant, endangered protagonist; Tiffany's performance was guided to express real physical and emotional strain, including working with a heavy prosthetic belly to enhance realism.
Indie Horror Highlights: Meat (2026) with LaRae Wilson
Q: Tell me a little bit about your career and how this project fits in as your feature debut.
LaRae explains that Meet was conceived quickly, leveraging her background across multiple roles in film and her prior directing experience, and that it evolved fast from concept to production within about a year, driven by a strong creative impulse and a clear vision for the story's social resonance.
Indie Horror Highlights: Match (2025)
Q: How did you approach sensitive topics like sexual abuse and consent on screen?
We prioritized consent, confidentiality, and safety through intimacy coordinators and closed sets for difficult scenes. We aimed to ensure the material served the story and characters, not titillation, and used the scenes to illuminate autonomy and resilience rather than sensationalize suffering.
