Summary
This week on the Nightmare on Film Street horror movie podcast, your hosts Kimmi and Jon are talking brand new found footage fright BODYCAM with writer/director (and friend of the pod!) BRANDON CHRISTENSEN!
Bodycam is shot entirely from the perspective of two police officers' bodycams during a not-so-normal night shift that takes them to a domestic violence call from hell. We put on our Certified Found Footage Fan™ badges and sat down with Brandon to discuss the unique storytelling of the sub-genre and the even more unique perspective of shooting from the literal chests of your actors, to spooky set design (or just finding the perfect derelict buildings to shoot in), working with Shudder for a 6th feature film, and much more!
Bodycam streams exclusively on Shudder onMarch 13th.
