Description

The time has finally come. The Master of Horror himself, Mick Garris, is here.

Writer, director, producer, and frequent Stephen King collaborator, Mick is the mind behind The Stand, The Shining, Sleepwalkers, and Desperation (not to mention Hocus Pocus and Masters of Horror). He stops by to talk about his journey from writing at 12 to becoming one of the genre’s most iconic voices.

We get into how he approaches spec scripts, what fuels his creativity, and how a gig with Steven Spielberg led to a career working with the biggest names in horror. And yes—his Post Mortem finale with Quentin Tarantino. We go there.

This podcast is produced by Brian Landwehr and Bailey Patterson.
