A Talk with Tom Holland!
We got the amazing opportunity to talk with Tom Holland, the writer, director, or writer-director of horror movies and thrillers including Child’s Play, Fright Night, Thinner, Class of 1984, Cloak & Dagger, Scream For Help, and Psycho II. As three nerds who grew up with this stuff, you can imagine how excited we were to talk to Mr. Holland, and he was just a delight! We hope you enjoy it as much as we all did.
