Director Statement

The Grimoire Chapters has been a passion project of mine for several years now. I think the horror genre is quite often overlooked within the film community. People often equate horror to masked killers and endless gore, but I have always thought of horror as drama but with extreme circumstances. For actors and actresses to believably portray those heightened extremes is no easy task. It requires real work and real talent. I was very fortunate in getting the opportunity to work with a fantastic cast and crew who helped bring this season to life. This season is our biggest season yet for the show with our biggest cast, and I think everyone has been doing amazing work. I'm very proud and excited to share with you the pilot episode of The Grimoire Chapters: Rem.
