Two low budget projects. Two eventual hits. Two very different behind the scenes stories. It’s Terrifier and Longlegs on the Film Stories podcast.


The Terrifier movie franchise has now led to a number one box office hit – but the story behind the first film involves short films, a crowdfunding campaign that missed its target, a shoot that went on longer than originally planned and financiers dropping out.

Writer/direcotr Osgood Perkins meanwhile had been mulling about a possibe character who would become Longlegs long before he embarked on an unusual serial killer film.
