The Blair Witch Project / Interview with Ben Rock

On the 20th anniversary of The Blair Witch Project, Rob and Joseph welcome Ben Rock, YSGOAT's first guest! Ben served as a production designer on the first Blair Witch Project and as a writer and director for several Blair Witch promotional specials. 

Ben gives us some behind-the-scenes details about the Blair Witch days and some great insight into what it took to launch Video Palace, a horror podcast he co-wrote and directed for Shudder. We also talk about the general state of horror movies and how republican administrations turn out great horror Oh, and also great horror movies!

Interview was conducted via Zoom - connection fades in some spots, but is overall strong. Big thanks to Ben Rock for his time. Video Palace is available wherever you get your podcasts, and season two of 20 Seconds to Live premieres soon! You can follow him on Twitter at @NeptuneSalad and on Instagram at @benjamin_rock.
