About this episode
Karsen Schovajsa discusses the making of his found footage horror film 'The Killing Cell'.
“The Killing Cell” is an awesome found footage film that’s been tearing up the festival circuit with awards and nominations! Writer/director/producer and actor Karsen Schovajsa and his crew pulled together a nostalgic horror flick that captures the same eerie energy as “Hell House LLC” and “Grave Encounters.” I was lucky enough to check out a screener, absolutely loved it, and had to bring Karsen onto the podcast to talk all about the making of this soon-to-be cult hit! Make sure to follow TheKillingCellMovie , DeadRenegadeFilms , ScreenSanctity (James Bessey, co-director)and Karsen_Thomas3 for updates on the film.
