One of the most highly anticipated horror movies of the year., Dear David, is headed your way, just in time for Halloween.
Back in 2001, we reported on BuzzFeed artist Adam Ellis’ spooky-as-hell social media thread labeled “Dear David,” which quickly went viral. The posts/updates told about the paranormal activity in his home and the sightings of a child’s ghost, who threatened his life. We reported the same year that a movie was in the works. After two years, it is finally set to open in theaters.
I recently had the pleasure of talking with the film’s director, John McPhail, about bringing this fright-filled, haunting story to life on screen and what it took to create this horror film.
McPhail is not new to the horror genre. He is also behind the fun holiday horror film Anna and the Apocalypse, released in 2017. He was also featured in the 2020 genre anthology series “Bite Size Halloween.” Of course, he doesn’t strictly stick to horror movies, also being behind films such as Where Do We Go From Here?
Be sure to check out our interview below and watch Dear David in theaters, Digital, and On Demand on Friday, October 13th. Is the movie actually scary? Read our review to find out.
