Thank you for participating in this year’s Women in Horror Month at Cinema Crazed.
Thank you. I appreciate getting to know other females and femme identifying folks in the horror field, especially those who uplift and encourage others to showcase their best. Another reminder that we’re all in this together. I believe it speaks volumes to the dedication in your own craft, and how much you care about making sure our voices are heard and understood correctly. Thank you for the all the hard work you continue to do for women in the horror realm.

Please introduce yourself.
I’m an actor/writer/director and visual artist originally from Germany. Film is my absolute passion – it’s on my mind every day! My favorite genre is horror, specifically sci-fi and folk horror. A few years ago, I branched out from acting and also started working on numerous film sets behind the scenes, adding knowledge and skills as a filmmaker. The dark comedy short ‘The Appointment’ was my writing and directorial debut in 2015. My latest ‘baby’ is the horror comedy ‘Things We Dig’, which is now in film festivals!

Please introduce yourself.
My name is Lee Ann Kurr, and I’m a film writer-director based in Burbank CA, with a background in classical theatre. My work is female-forward with intentionally diverse character ensembles, and uses genre to heighten a coming-of-age narrative.

Ma and Pa Kettle On Film
One of the most successful film series of all time were the Ma and Pa Kettle comedies starring Marjorie Main and Percy Kilbride as a rustic couple who were always getting into some crazy trouble. On this episode of “The Online Movie Show,” we revisit those wonderful movies with Lon Davis, co-author of the new book “Ma and Pa Kettle on Film” (published by BearManor Media).

My name is Violet. I am a Mexican American woman from Texas but now residing in the UK. I write horror, science fiction, erotica and erotic horror.
What is it that attracts you the horror genre for your chosen field of creative work?
I have been a horror fan since childhood. We have so many scary folktales in my culture it is hard to escape the supernatural. I’ve always embraced it and have been fascinated by the role it plays in my culture. Aztec mythology is also full of horror.
