About this episode

Chris Jericho hosts a live Q&A with the cast and crew of the horror film Big Baby at Screamfest.

Chris Jericho hits the stage at the TCL Chinese Theatre during Screamfest Horror Film Festival for a live Talk Is Jericho Q&A after the premiere of Big Baby! Writer/director Spider One breaks down how Big Baby went from a joke in Allegoria to a full-blown horror movie, the challenge of making a “killer baby” concept terrifying, and why playing it straight made it even creepier. Krys Fox talks acting, producing, editing the entire film, and building the emotional core before the chaos hits, while actor Brandon Scott details balancing madness, vulnerability, and a psychological breakdown across a 13-day shoot! Chaz Bono reveals what a producer actually does on an indie horror set, how the film became a full-on family affair (including Cher demanding “more blood”), and why his cameo scenes had to be reshot to hit harder. Adam Marcinowski explains becoming “Big Baby,” building a physical performance under a mask, and the subtle details that made the character terrifying.
