Following the premiere of horror-thriller In Our Blood at Fantasia, I sat down with the film’s director, Pedro Kos, and its stars, Brittany O’Grady (“The White Lotus”) and E. J. Bonilla (“The Old Man”), to have quite the entertaining conversation about the film’s complexity, its heart, and its big twist. Don’t worry; there are no major spoilers.
O’Grady stars as Emily, a young woman who returns to the small border town where she was born to reunite with the mother she’s estranged from. She is joined by her cameraman, Danny, played by Bonilla, who struggles with keeping Emily grounded. But while making a documentary about the reunion, Emily and Danny make a dark discovery that sends them into a spiral of chaos.

But you can see that for yourself in our interview below.
