What better way to cool off from the warm summer days than with a chilling horror movie? Horror movies are great any time of year, and for us horror fans, there is never enough good content to consume.
But what really makes a great horror film? What are the elements that need to be in place for the story (and genre) to work?
To answer all this and more, Roadmap welcomes horror aficionado Kelly Gallagher for this special two week clinic!
This Two Week Clinic Will Cover:
- The conventions of a horror film
- Scares, tension and atmosphere
- Marketability
- Feedback on your first 10 pages
Born in suburban South Jersey to two mostly normal people who love a good drive-in B-movie, Kelly Gallagher attended Boston University, where she studied Film/TV and English, primarily focusing on Film Studies, Screenwriting, and Physical Production. After graduating, she got her start in the business at management company Industry Entertainment working in the Television Literary Department, and as a Script Reader for the Paradigm Agency. She then joined the film and television development arm of indie comic book company Oni Press, where she worked on book-to-film projects such as David Leitch's ATOMIC BLONDE and Co-Produced the Chris Hemsworth hit EXTRACTION, Netflix's most-watched original film. Since joining the rebooted Dark Castle, Kelly has been able to fulfill her blood-and-guts dreams working with the iconic horror brand. She recently Co-Produced Simon Barrett's directorial debut SEANCE starring Suki Waterhouse and Inanna Sarkis (RLJE/Shudder), Mary Harron's THE EXPECTING starring AnnaSophia Robb and Rory Culkin (Quibi/Roku), and Dark Castle's upcoming prequel to 2009's cult hit ORPHAN, ORPHAN:FIRST KILL, which stars Julia Stiles and Isabelle Fuhrman reprising her iconic role.
