Age of The Nerd
Both Mick Garris and Clive Barker have been staples in celluloid for decades. Both have experience in the written page and behind the camera. They are maverick storytellers. And it is in horror they choose to tell the majority of their tales. And as a fan of both men, I was thrilled to hear the news that they could be working together on something.
Garris, along with film writer and producer Joe Russo, host a podcast called Post Mortem. On their latest episode of Ask Mick Anything, Garris revealed that he was working with Clive Barker to create a new anthology series. The two have put a treatment together and a philosophical point of view on how to do it. The unnamed anthology series will be made in the UK, according to Garris.
Anthology series are very popular right now, so hopefully, the duo can sell the idea to the big wigs. Mick is no stranger to the anthology series as he hit it out of the park years ago with his series Masters of Horror, which aired on Showtime. I look further to hearing what these two storytellers have for us in the future.
