About this episode
In 2015, horror icon Barbara Crampton was handed a script written by Mark Steensland that tackled issues often ignored in filmmaking. He had written a movie that focused on “a woman in the second stage of life, battling against a relationship that feels restrictive.” The result was a movie that took home the top prize at Shriekfest, a horror film festival in Los Angeles. After Crampton received the script, she spent the better part of the next five years trying to make the movie a reality after she connected to the material on a much deeper level after her own career hit a roadblock simply because she was no longer a young ingenue but instead a woman in her 30s. The story follows the wife of a small town minister, who seemingly gets lost in his shadow until an encounter with a vampire transforms her into a powerful new woman with an insatiable appetite for blood.
