Show Notes
John Harrison has worn many hats throughout his career—director, composer, writer, and one of George A. Romero's closest creative collaborators during one of the most influential periods in horror history.
In this conversation, we look back on Harrison's years working alongside Romero, the making "Creepshow", the evolution of independent horror filmmaking, composing for the genre, and the creative process behind some of horror's most enduring classics.

More from Bloody Good Horror
We interview Jeffrey Donovan and Debra Ann Woll about their new horror movie The Cycle, out now exclusively on Shudder. We talk about the film's shocking monster effects and their deep connection to their characters.
This week we venture into Insidious: Out of the Further, and beg the question, how has a series built on the fear of the unknown become so hellbent on explaining everything that happens in such excruciating detail? Plus, the cringiest character of the year, Lin Shaye takes her place as the Dr. Loomis of modern times, and a dentist scene so disgusting it made all of us retch just talking about it.
What makes a horror movie a Halloween classic? Director Ben Sottak and Hereditary star Milly Shapiro join Bloody Good Horror to discuss Hallowarrior, Shudder's new post-apocalyptic horror film that combines gruesome violence, Halloween nostalgia, and an unexpectedly hopeful coming-of-age story.
The internet has made up its mind about Other Mommy, but the BGH crew has a more complicated take. We debate Rob Savage’s ambitious, occasionally overstuffed horror film, from Jessica Chastain’s uncanny dual performance and the increasingly surreal set pieces to the emotional story underneath it all.
Rachel sits down with three of the filmmakers behind V/H/S/Mixtape (2026) to discuss the latest entry in the found-footage horror anthology and the creative ideas behind their segments.
