Shriekfest Radio! Denise Gossett interviews screenwriter Edward Martin III

Edward Martin III is a writer and filmmaker scrabbling together a semblance of home in the Pacific Northwest. He's surrounded by looming evergreens with sullen boughs, mountains that ponder the nature of death, and a relentless sea that dissolves everything it touches. Also, there's a cat, primarily to offset all that rich delicious goodness. Edward's second book "Through the Night" is being adapted to a feature film, and he is currently in production on several new films. His most recent movies are "The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath" (an animated adaptation of the Lovecraft novel), "Flesh of my Flesh" (a bizarre zombie horror set in the too-near future), and "The Dead," a drama set at a wake. Several other film projects are in development at this time.  He has also written and directed two web series "Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse" and "Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse for Zombies" and is working on two more. Because sleep, apparently, is an option. Find him online at HellbenderMedia.com

Edward was a Shriekfest Quarter Finalist in 2015 and a Finalist and Winner in 2017 with his short screenplay "Dark Hour".
