The Night House — Episode 87

Writing partners Ben Collins and Luke Piotrowski had already managed to get several scripts made into films but there was plenty more left on the cutting room floor from projects that never got picked up or pieces of stories that were deemed too ambitious that the pair called their “murdered darlings.” 

Armed with those ideas along with an intense desire to write something that would scare each other, Collins and Piotrowski started to develop an idea for a new script that would deal with a subject that was truly terrifying — the intense reality of mortality. Despite never having suffered through any intense grief in their own lives yet knowing that death is looming around the corner for all of us and the ones we love, they decided to explore that as a setting for a film. 

The final story centered around a woman named Beth who is trying to make sense of her husband’s shocking suicide and the trove of secrets he was keeping from her that she begins to uncover in the wake of his death. 

In the latest episode of Rewind of the Living Dead, we’re going to crank up the stereo to listen to ‘The Calvary Cross’ and make sure the boat is tied to the dock as we review the 2021 thriller ‘The Night House’…
