Inside His Head

New Zealand-raised filmmaker and host of online show Inside Horror Elric Kane, who currently lives in Los Angeles, talks to Werewolf editor Gordon Campbell about the show and all things horror-fic. “The first episode [of Inside Horror] we did was with John Landis [An American Werewolf in London],” Kane says. “And for me, that was the first onscreen interview I’d ever done in my life. I never thought I’d be doing a chat show kind of thing. But it’s a chance to meet people in a genre that’s really interesting to me. My favourite type of movie in existence is the horror art film. The Zulawski film Possession [from 1981, with Isabelle Adjani and Sam Neill] has always been one of my favourite movies.” “Finally – best monster film?” Campbell asks. “Creature of the Black Lagoon, easily. There’s nothing that comes close to that film.”
