Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Horrific Podcast #391 – Heather Matarazzo
Q: What first drew you to acting and what keeps you inspired today?
She cites a sense of acting choosing her in a Morgan Freeman quote, and says art is a medium for truth to power, promoting empathy and compassion. She finds inspiration in how storytelling can connect people and foster humane values.
The Horrific Podcast #375 Josh Milican
Q: What inspired Dopefoot and how did the idea evolve?
Millican describes Dopefoot as conceived from his Bigfoot fascination and from being in Northern California, where he wanted to set a cryptid story on a cannabis farm, blending regional geography with horror and creating a title that stood out.
The Horrific Podcast #376 Featuring Brent Bailey
Q: How did Brent Bailey find his way into The Huntsman?
He was a last-minute addition after another actor had to bail due to scheduling, and his team's reel and prior work convinced the director and producer to bring him on quickly, even before he fully read the script.
The Horrific Podcast #378 Kerry Mondragon,
Q: As you were filming in such remote locations, how did you manage reception from locals and ensure respectful collaboration?
We approached it with transparency, shared reading sessions in the jungle with the Maya family, used multiple languages to honor participants, and actively avoided disruptive elements like drones in sensitive areas, prioritizing trust and mutual respect to keep the project grounded in the community's perspective.
The Horrific Podcast #378 Kerry Mondragon,
Q: Where did Wetiko's concept come from and what inspired you to tell this story in the jungle?
The idea grew from a combination of personal fascination with Maya culture, the real-world danger and mystery of jungle settings, and observing how private rituals and communities can be both sacred and cinematic, leading to a story that blends myth, cult dynamics, and a young protagonist's perilous journey.
