ONGOING SHUDDER SERIES

Behind the Monsters – Premieres every Wednesday
(Available on Shudder US, Shudder CA, Shudder UKI and Shudder ANZ)
Behind the Monsters takes an in-depth exploration of the creation of favorite horror icons including Candyman, Chucky, Michael Myers and Freddy Krueger. No horror icon came out of a filmmaker’s first draft fully formed. There were early drafts, wrong turns, experimentation. Once made flesh (or latex), there’s presentation, impact, audience response and legacy. Each episode examines a horror icon who has broken free of the confines of the film from which it was born and become the stuff of legend.
