22: Black Christmas Encore - Dual-Direction Directors + Terminal 55 Demo

On this encore episode of Open Mic Night of the Living Dead, we dig into the crossover world of horror and family films, inspired by Black Christmas and its director Bob Clark, who also brought us A Christmas Story. We share our list of horror directors who made surprising ventures into kids and family movies, from Robert Rodriguez’s journey between From Dusk Till Dawn and Spy Kids, to Guillermo del Toro’s leap from Mimic to Trollhunters. Along the way, we discuss what draws imaginative minds to both horror and children’s storytelling, why the fantastical connects these genres, and share our personal stories as lifelong horror fans. Plus, don’t miss our original track inspired by Black Christmas: Terminal 55.
