#206 - Mason Heller (A Wicked Crime, Nightmare Movies)
In this episode, Terrell and Russell talk with Mason, creator of the YouTube channel Nightmare Movies, about how he went from sharing horror discoveries on TikTok to editing for major creators and making his own feature film. They get into why found footage remains one of horror’s most immersive genres, how A Wicked Crime came together through a scrappy, stop-start production, and how Mason directed performances that feel true to influencer culture and crime documentaries.

#204 - Russell Returns and talks flying on 9/11 & being killed in a found footage movie
Russell returns from a two-week trip to Georgia and unpacks life on the set of Robbie Smith’s new film, Crusher(s), while Evan jumps in with commentary on horror, found footage, and the absurdity of airline travel. It’s part production recap, part movie talk, and part war story about a nightmare Frontier flight.
