Horror festival fan favorite short-film director Chris McInroy mixes in the humor with the scares (no surprise if you’ve seen his fantastic short films!).  Owwwoooooo! Werewolves of London!

That was not easy to whittle down to 25! Horror is my favorite genre so I could list 700 movies that I like. I’m a writer/director based in Austin, TX. I’ve made 3 horror-comedy short films the last 4 years, Bad Guy #2, Death Metal and We Summoned A Demon. You can check out my Vimeo page here: https://vimeo.com/chrismcinroy I just wrote and directed a segment for a horror anthology called Scare Package. Once the post is finished on my segment I’m gonna go after my first feature, which is a horror-comedy with werewolves.

Editorial Comment: Can’t wait, Chris! Keep us posted, and we’ll keep the fans aware of the progress of your feature.
