For whatever reason, it made some people nervous, so the idea of two neighbors feuding over their Halloween displays came naturally since my head was already into doing something attraction-based. In our scenario, the Devil was actually running the Hell House and whacking the believers at the end. Our first pitch actually took place in a Christian fundamentalist Hell House-those October "haunts" put on by churches to try to scare people into converting. I love the craft and the creativity people put behind it and more than anything, it's what I look forward to most during the season. Where did the inspiration for your short, "This Means War", come from?Īndrew Kasch: Halloween haunts are my jam! Each year, I hit up every haunted attraction in the greater Los Angeles area and I cruise by all the major neighborhood displays in The Valley. One of the things I love about Tales of Halloween is that so many of the segments deal with different aspects of the holiday. Their segment, “This Means War,” about a pair of neighbors feuding over Halloween decorations, deals with this very subject.
The only directing duo contributing to Tales of Halloween, John Skipp (writer of A Nightmare on Elm Street 5) and Andrew Kasch ( Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy) have a lot to say about making a movie with their friends and the current state of horror. To celebrate the October 16th release of the horror anthology Tales of Halloween, Daily Dead spoke to the filmmakers behind the movie to discuss the project, their individual contributions, and more.
