The Editor (2014)

     Directed and written by Adam Brooks and Matthew Kennedy. This isnt just any cookie cutout comedy slasher film because its equal parts an homage and parody of the entire Italian giallo genre.

John Carpenter: Dark Myth Weaver of the 1980s

Many of John Carpenter’s films have common threads that stitch them gently together.
