If you’re a fan of Shudder’s Host and you want to learn as much as you can about the production, you’ll want to give a listen to the latest episode of Bloody Disgusting’s Boo Crew Podcast, which features a nearly hour-long interview with director Rob Savage and co-writer Jed Shepherd. Savage and Shepherd touch upon everything from the real seance the cast conducted prior to filming the 60-minute movie to the film’s VFX and how they were pulled off remotely by the team, and they even tease a behind the scenes featurette that’s coming soon.

During the chat, Savage and Shepherd also touch upon what they’ve got in the works post-Host, again promising “an amazing follow-up” film they’re hoping to make. As they note, whether or not that movie gets made will largely depend on how many people stream Host through Shudder. But one movie that’s definitely in the works is a one-location supernatural feature being produced by Sam Raimi. That project was announced before Host became an indie horror sensation, and the duo tells the Boo Crew that it’s going to be something special.

“We’ve got a great script that we’re really excited about. It’s not a spoiler to say that it’s in this similar supernatural space, but it pushes in a much different direction from Host,” Savage explains. “It’s one of those ideas where you hear it, it’s very simple, and you’re amazed that nobody’s ever done it before. When we first talked about it, we immediately Google’d and we couldn’t believe that nobody happened upon this idea before. It feels so fundamental in the way that it tackles the horror genre.”

He continues, “So we’re really hoping that when the world goes back to normal that’ll be the next thing we do outside of the found footage genre.”

“Yeah, it’s one of those ideas where, like, I’m constantly watching old horror movies thinking, ‘It must be from this. It’s too good to be true.’ But it’s not. It’s original,” Shepherd adds.

Speaking about a recent table-read of the script, Savage notes, “Working with [Sam Raimi] is an absolute dream for both of us. He’s a filmmaker who really inspired us.”
