Reel Talk

Reel Talk is a podcast heavily focused on the film Industry. In each episode, a guest speaker comes on to discuss their work, how they got their start in the industry, offer any words of advice and/or support for our listeners as well as the hosts, and to answer any other questions said hosts may have for them. This week, the featured guest was Gregory Lerzundi Van Voorhis, a local horror film director from Westchester New York who recently released an independent horror film titled "The Pitchfork Retreat". The film, which released in 2025, centers around Matt, Mandy, and Nikolai, all of whom journey to a secluded island retreat for a life-changing competition. However, the prize comes with a high cost, as the trio soon realizes that there is nowhere to hide when the darkness from within comes to light. In this episode, Gregory discusses with our interviewer Robbie about how he got his start working in the film industry, what drew him to working in the field, his love for the horror genre, and some advice that he had to share with our audience. Following the interview, our two hosts discussed the interview and the trailer for The Pitchfork Retreat. The hosts also made a top 5 horror movie list before the podcast concluded.Connor Falk - Writer/Researcher/GraphicsCole Roberts - Producer + hostRobbie Gussak - Editor, host, interviewerStephen Tarantino - Recordist
