The Kulturecast takes a slight break from Stanley Kubrick Month to take a look at the upcoming Scary Stories: A Documentary. The film, directed by Cody Meirick, focuses on the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark series of children's books from the '80s and '90s that caused massive waves in and out of schools. The documentary features interviews with Alvin Schwartz's family, famed horror writers RL Stine, and megafans of the original trilogy of books. Chris is joined by award-winning screenwriter Jess Byard to talk about the documentary, the influence the book has had on horror culture, and thoughts on the upcoming narrative film.You can follow Chris Stachiw at @KultureStach and the Kulturecast @kulturecast.
