Monsters ARE real...In this episode we dive head first into the terrifying realties that are in play in 'Take Back The Night'Finding herself the victim of a violent monster attack, Jane launches a vigilante campaign to hunt the beast that tried to kill her. Jane’s efforts intensify, but her troubling history of drug use and mental illness bubbles to the surface causing her family, community, and authorities to question the authenticity of her account. Suddenly alone in her fight, Jane starts to doubt her own memory of the attack…to doubt if Monster exists at all.Take Back The Night is a genuine powerhouse of genre cinema made on a shoestring budget and we had the distinct pleasure of sitting down with co-writer/director Gia Elliott to talk about the origins of the story, the challenges and advantages of being a first time filmmaker as well as delivering a genuinely relatable story that is just creepy as all hell.
