Episode Description from the Publisher

We interview director Salvatore Sclafani (Dutch III: International Gangster, Katie’s Story) about his latest horror feature The Hermit starring Lou Ferrigno (The Adventures of Hercules, The Incredible Hulk), and Malina Weissman (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Supergirl). Among other things, we discuss why horror is such an iconic genre, how comedy and horror are actually quite similar, and what might have attracted Lou Ferrigno to his first horror role ever playing the titular character in The Hermit.
