From watching my dad slay demonic skeletons in the original Diablo to seeing my uncle explore the fog-shrouded streets of Silent Hill, some of my earliest horror memories involve video games, so I'm super excited for TerrorBytes: The Evolution of Horror Gaming, the latest documentary from Creatorvc (the production company behind the In Search of Darkness ’80s and ’90s horror movie documentaries).
With TerrorBytes now available to order, Daily Dead had the pleasure of catching up with writer/director Richard Moss to discuss the journey of making this in-depth documentary, including interviewing 51 people, editing over 100 hours of footage, covering indie releases as well as major titles, and learning some things that surprised him along the way!
