Today, I'm very psyched to speak with Ryan Turek, the VP of Development at Blumhouse and Producer across many titles including Imaginary, Night Swim, The Exorcist: Believer, M3GAN, The Black Phone, Halloween, Halloween Ends, Halloween Kills, Freaky, Happy Death Day and the list goes on. In this episode, Ryan gets into his very compelling origin story from horror journalism to becoming a very pivotal figure who's shaping contemporary horror cinema.Ryan also dives deep into the lesser known sides of producing as well as Blumhouse's process for developing projects and nurturing directors. And we touch on Blumhouse's very exciting Halfway to Halloween Film Festival, a 5-day screening series beginning this Friday, learn more here: www.amctheatres.com/events/halfway-to-halloweenRyan is someone I've wanted to get on the show for a while and I really enjoyed this conversation. His story is a real testament to the power of persistence and passion, as well as the importance of remaining true to yourself which are hallmarks of Ryan's career that have led him to one of the most important and coolest jobs in horror today.Here are some key takeaways from this conversation with Ryan Turek.Passion and persistence. Ryan emphasized the importance of his persistence and staying true to his passion for horror and even though he didn't always know exactly which path to pursue at all times, he kept a foot in horror throughout his career which ultimately paid off in a huge way. His transition from horror journalism to film development showcases how diverse experiences can converge into a unique and powerful career path.Empathy is an underrated producer skill. When it comes to producing, Ryan stresses the need for empathy and listening. Film sets can be a high-stress environment, rife with a lot of people, egos and endless potential for chaos. With so many volatile variables on set, being able to listen and have empathy ensures people feel heard which makes everything go smoother. It sounds simplistic because it is, but the tenets of psychology apply to producing more than most other professions.Be a confidante. Ryan mentions that people often cite him as a calm and cool confidante who can help navigate them through day to day on-set difficulties with comfort. This is a very important skill to develop as a producer though not everyone is capable of it so if you're not, it's advantageous to have someone like this around because amid the chaos, someone capable of emotionally stabilizing people can stabilize the entire set. This all underscores how critical interpersonal skills are in managing production teams and bringing out the best in people and projects.Don't forget to check out Blumhouse's Halfway to Halloween Film Festival beginning this Friday March 29th at AMC theaters across America.

Key Links King Cohen Trailer King Cohen is a fantastically fun documentary that tells the larger than life story of the prolific writer, director, and producer Larry Cohen, the creative genius behind such beloved horror classics as It's Alive, The Stuff and Q – The Winged Serpent. In addition to being a charming and humorous romp into 70's genre Hollywood, what lies at the heart of the film is Larry Cohen's fierce irrepressibility as an artist. Throughout the course of his career, Cohen was a man who wouldn't take no for an answer; a cliche statement that gets thrown around a lot, but trust me when I say that in the case of Larry Cohen, it's completely true. The lengths Cohen went to protect his artistic integrity and make the movies he wanted to make were incredibly ambitious and in some instances, borderline insane. Cohen's iron will and resourcefulness is best articulated through the film's exploration of his guerrilla filmmaking techniques which were outrageous, fascinating and completely reckless. For one shot, Cohen had a taxicab drive down a sidewalk in New York City at full speed in the middle of the day with no permits. Despite the danger, the philosophies behind his guerrilla filmmaking approach are infectiously inspiring and in this regard, the movie acts as a priceless ‘how to' guide for aspiring (and daring) genre filmmakers on a budget. Featuring interviews with John Landis, Joe Dante, Martin Scorsese, JJ Abrams, Rick Baker, Mick Garris, Ryan Turek, and a particularly hysterical exchange with Fred Williamson, King Cohen is a fun watch and a special treat for horror fans. We caught up with director Steve Mitchell (you may know him as the writer of Chopping Mall) to hear all about his directorial journey behind his documentary feature debut. here are Steve Mitchell's 3 keys to documentary filmmaking: Learn how to interview. Being a good documentary filmmaker means being a good interviewer. Learn from the best: Steve recommends Playboy interviews, and (despite recent news) old Charlie Rose interviews. Characters are everything. The secret to doing any effective storytelling is great characters. Even in a non-fiction documentary. Make sure your documentary has a strong central character then use his life story to illustrate the many sides of his character. Boredom = death. Documentary filmmaking is a marathon, not a sprint, which is why it's critically important to choose a subject that you will be interested in long term. Without sustained enthusiasm, a project is in danger. You can buy King Cohen on blu ray right here - there is around an hour and fifteen minutes of new stories from Larry and the cast.
