Jim and James were out of commission this week, so friend of the show, writer, and composer Jerry Smith steps in for this interview with Gwen Callahan, co-director of the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival taking place from October 7 – 9 in Portland, OR! Fans of Lovecraft or even horror in general will want to hear all about what Gwen Callahan has in store for this year’s festival including online access to supplement its return to in person attendance, the northwest premiere of Benson and Moorhead’s Something in the Dirt, special guest appearance by Jeffrey Combs, Brian Yuzna’s personal 35mm print of Bride of Reanimator, and so much more!
