Deathgasm

I can see why the horror market is bloated with found-footage movies and single location ghost horror. We have heaps of characters, many different locations and some extreme gore. But I’m glad I stuck to my vision.

Oh sure, there were better movies and more important movies to be seen, but Deathgasm ... is one of those once-in-a-decade movies that feels destined to become a cult-classic for years to come.

If you see the title Deathgasm and think, ‘Maybe this isn’t for me,’ then you’re probably right.

"The first script draft was so over-the-top it would have cost $10 million to make. A lot of it was just looking at what we had [then employing] No. 8 wire. We'd beg, borrow and steal ... Even day to day we'd be looking at the script and saying, 'We can't actually do this. What can we do instead? How can we tell the story?'"
