There was an idea...to use our podcast as a platform for independent filmmakers to discuss their work. Today that idea takes its first baby step. On this very special episode the Morticians sit down with Kaleb Torres, writer-director of HOME VIDEO: a psychological thriller about a man struggling with his grip on reality after a traumatic event starring our very own Justin Winley! The conversation covers everything from Kaleb's initial inspiration to the music he chose in the edit, and that last minute ingenuity always associated with low-budget horror craft. It is also full of spoilers for quite a twisty movie, but you can avoid all that by watching it on YouTube first! We can't recommend it enough. HOME VIDEO (2022), written and directed by Kaleb Torres, can be viewed here. And you can keep up with the filmmaker via Instagram @kaleb_torres_ and his website www.kalebtorres.com
