Episode 263: Damian McCarthy's New Film "Hokum"
from Mostly Horror · host Mostly Horror | Morbid Network
In this episode, we reunited with writer and director, Damian McCarthy, whose chilling new feature Hokum is now out in theaters. (It’s so terrifying that it reportedly made an audience member pee their pants during an early screening!) Starring Severance and Parks and Rec actor Adam Scott, the film is already off to a strong box office start. We chatted with Damian about his experience collaborating with Adam and what he brought to the role of Ohm, the influence of Damian's Irish Catholic background on his writing, and the grueling experience of filming in a burning hot desert. Plus, Damian teases his next horror film, which we already can’t wait to learn more about. As always, it was nothing but a fantastic conversation with Damian, so … COME HANG OUT!!!
