Writer/Director David Weiner commented,

“I’m absolutely thrilled to be revisiting the most formative decade in my life for the newest In Search of Darkness documentary. Growing up as a kid in the ’70s, I was exposed to all sorts of monster movies, creature features, and straight-out horror on our wood-panelled den TV and in the 99-cent movie theatre down the street. From watching such films as The Exorcist, The Omen, Phantasm, Alien, and Halloween at way too young an age, I essentially imprinted on horror. For In Search of Darkness ’70s, we are assembling a murderer’s row of knowledgeable and recognisable talent to both celebrate and recontextualise this golden era of filmmaking, and I can’t wait to share it with our hungry horror community.”
