Welcome! Today I'm joined by prolific filmmaker, writer, and editor Michael Felker! known for his work in cerebral, genre-blending science fiction and indie horror. Emerging from a background in editing (most notably on films like The Endless, Synchronic, and Something in the Dirt) Felker developed a strong sense of narrative structure and tone that carries into his directing. Also worth noting that he shows up in the Haunted Reels 2 anthology with a story!!! Check out Things Will Be Different and Haunted Reels 2: More Stories From The Minds of Filmmakers!!!!

The best way to cap it off is to interview one of the best to EVER do it in the podcast space - Eric Vespe. Hosting The Kingcast & The Spiel, Eric isn't new to the world of cinema.
