Slamdance 2025 - Portal to Hell and In the Mouth

This episode of Slamdance 2025 celebrates films that bring thrills and horror!

Portal to Hell follows a debt collector as his routine is turned upside down after finding a portal to hell in a laundromat. Director/writer Woody Bess and star Trey Holland discuss making a horror film on a budget, working with acting greats like Keith David and Richard Kind, and the best burgers in LA. 

In the Mouth is the story of what happens when Merl, who lives a life of recluse, is running low on money and takes on a roommate looking for a place to hide. Actors Colin Burgess and Paul Michael join us to share their delight in the awkwardness of the story, how filming in black and white adds to the tone, and sleeping on an apple orchard in a room full of dolls.
