I’ve been digging into the Wendigo myth—its roots in Algonquian lore and how it’s been warped for modern horror. Ever directed a film that wrestles with that kind of primal, insatiable dread?
I haven’t made a movie that’s exactly a Wendigo saga, but I’ve always loved the idea of a myth twisted into something modern and bone‑shaking. If you want to capture that primal hunger, strip the story down to what really terrifies us: isolation, survival, the line between hunger and humanity. Keep the shots tight, let silence do the screaming, and never give the audience a clean cut—let them feel the dread simmer in the air and the edges of the frame. That’s how you make the myth feel alive, not just a horror trope.
