G33K Out: ‘Living Among Us’ Red Carpet

Episode 29: Living Among Us Red Carpet

In February, I had the chance to attend the red carpet premiere of Living Among Us, a movie shot in the style of a documentary that assumes vampires are real and just made themselves public. (Yes, I do bring up the similarities to What We Do In the Shadows, although as the trailer shows, it’s more in the vein of Blair Witch Project.) While there, I interviewed a wide range of people, both there as part of the movie and just to support it.
