Meet the Writer

​​Matt Konopka

A long time writer and wannabe werewolf, Matt began this site in 2018 as a way to bring more support to the horror genre. Indoctrinated into horror at the ripe old age of 3 while watching nothing but John Carpenter's Christine on repeat, Matt fell in love with film. He unfortunately attended Columbia College of Chicago with a focus in screenwriting, and has since spent the last ten years pitching movies in offices designed like strip clubs and working in the glamorous world of sleazy reality TV shows.

He has written for sites such as Dread Central and Certified Forgotten and currently has monthly columns at both Manor Vellum and Daily Grindhouse.
