What actually makes a horror movie terrifying? 3-time Emmy-winning filmmaker Rich Varville (Area 1, Holly Weird Pictures) breaks down the craft of psychological terror, why he prefers suspense over cheap jump scares, and how he balances B-movie camp with deep, mind-bending dread.
From drawing inspiration from historical events like Operation Paperclip to building a new home for indie thrillers, Rich reveals how to make stories that stay in your head long after the credits roll.
