Our Founding Executive Director, Jen Deerinwater, kicks off this year’s Indigenous horror special in The Magazine with three recommendations and a look at why Indigenous storytelling matters in horror.

Jen’s recommendations:

– Cinema Red and The Smudging by Mike J. Marin

– The Moogai by John Bell

Watch Jen’s video and follow along all month as we spotlight Indigenous horror films, filmmakers, events, and pathways for Indigenous people interested in creating horror.
