The vampire has become so high-fashion that I’ve ended up making the comparison between the bloodsucker and the queen of the prom, or the lead singer in a rock ’n’ roll band. And just when I thought the undead were lagging behind, TV’s The Walking Dead hit the pop-culture scene. However, there are other horror themes that never go away because they work, and one is the timeless psycho on the loose. Insatiable writer/director Scott W. Perry has just released his new short Something Just, in which he puts his own spin on the serial-killer genre.

Scott W. Perry is an independent filmmaker who I just recently have had the pleasure of getting to know some and helping to spread the good word of his new horror short called 'Something Just', which we have shared with y'all here on Gt already. Check out my latest "Versus" to find out more on this cool filmmaker, how he got into the game and see what other projects he has for us horror fans to look forward to.
Brian S- First off, how'd you get into film making?
Swp- I’ve always loved film and I guess it was just a product of being raised in the right era for horror. It’s a clichéd story but it’s a true story. My relatives never looked beyond the rating of a horror film to allow me to watch it and there were some movies I remember seeing in the theater.

Fango recently spent a day on location with the new horror short Something Just—specifically the basement of filmmaker Scott W. Perry (pictured left). Here, sadistic serial killer Thomas Sutcliffe, portrayed in a bit of against-type casting by East Coast horror stalwart Alan Rowe Kelly, terrorizes a bound, captive girl played by genre newcomer Joslyn Jensen. You can see some exclusive pics from this and other Something Just moments below.
Perry’s follow-up to his vampire story Insatiable (which we covered here) also stars Jerry Murdock as the guardian of one of Sutcliffe’s victims, who goes to an old friend (Joe Zaso) to seek vengeance; in the process, dark secrets from the past are revealed. This is the first production of Perry’s Slick Devil Entertainment to be lensed in 1080p high definition, with cinematographer Dominick Sivilli creating an oppressively creepy atmosphere in the smoke-suffused basement as Kelly manhandles and murders Jensen.

Makeup FX creator Jeremy Selenfriend (pictured left) has been all over the East Coast horror scene these days; when he’s not slinging the blood and prosthetics on features such as Blood Night: The Legend Of Mary Hatchet and Mold! (see our recent item on that one here), he’s contributing to the current explosion of horrific short films. Selenfriend shared some photos and observations on his latest projects, which you can see below.
The first pic is from the horror/comedy Aversion, from director Gf Roberts, who also scripted with Ted Spencer. “We shot that last year, and they’re just finishing it up,” Selenfriend tells us. “It’s one of the first movies I’ve done in a very long time that was shot on film, and it has a great look to it. It’s very much in the Evil Dead style, and [Canadian horror actress] Melantha Blackthorne is...

If you were lucky enough to attend Fango’s recently wrapped Weekend of Horrors, you hopefully were also fortunate enough to check out the phenomenal short Insatiable, which screened on Sunday. As much about vampirism and fetishism as it is about a dwindling marriage, the flick is a rare silent pleasure, harking back to the days when creating films was more about experimentation than making money.
“Insatiable really started out of my frustration from trying to sell a feature script of mine in 2004,” writer/director Scott W. Perry reveals. “I kept on inquiring to many production companies looking for scripts, but the answers were all the same: no vampires, because they’ve been done to death. I had just left a job at A&E, where one of my duties was to watch their prime-time programming before it went to air for quality control. Now, it was reality shit, but...

Ok, ok…so everyone and their brother are going to write about their experience this past weekend – oh and to clear it up – I am referring to our just-wrapped Fangoria's Weekend of Horrors – located in my great hometown of New York City!
I’ve blogged a few times but never was it about me me Me! So I have that right, don’t I?
Well, it all started when I was born – only kidding of course. It all started on Friday night which was a real bummer for me as I looked forward to the event All fucking week and then found out that the doors were not to open until 5pm. And to make matters worse, I had my short films scheduled at 6. Conflict right there and then. You see, I was lucky enough to (for lack of a better word) “anchor” the webcast and doing that is just...
