Bionic Buzz® got to interview director Christopher Alender (Muppets Now) and writer Marcos Gabriel of the amazing horror movie The Old Ways.
About: When Cristina Lopez – a Mexican American reporter – returns to her ancestral homeland of Veracruz chasing a story on witchcraft and faith healers, she becomes the subject of her own story. Kidnapped by a local “bruja” and her son, she’s held against her will for a terrifying reason: they believe she has a demon within her, and won’t let her free until they exorcise the malevolent force … no matter what it takes. As she struggles to make her escape, she slowly comes to believe they may be telling the truth after all. Along with her captors – and estranged cousin Miranda – Cristina’s fight for survival turns into a fight for her soul.
We talked inspiration for creating this story, research for it, how they found main character actress Brigitte Kali Canales (Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Fear the Walking Dead), design & sound design for the the demon, what it was like working with snakes on the film, and more.
