“I wanted to create a story-driven film with fantasy and horror combined. Something that was directly inspired by the era of Hitchcock and even Ed Wood. Working with a writer like Tony Burgess was a pleasure as we both love the simplicity in many of the old classic films of the 50’s and 60’s, and even earlier in films like Nosferatu and Faust. We worked really hard to make Hellmouth something fresh,” says director, John Geddes
