One of the craziest films the Grue-Crew encountered in the past months has been the gooey, grimy gorefest called NIGHT OF SOMETHING STRANGE. For the first issue of Gruesome Magazine, writer John Black sat down with director Jonathan Straiton to discuss what went into making this over-the-top classic. “I wanted to take a specific horror genre…and push the envelope as far as I could,” he shares as he divulges what influence his script and inspired his gory, gruesome film. Check out GRUESOME MAGAZINE SPRING 2017 edition of the quarterly magazine to read more about Night of Something Strange and much, much more.
