The 411 Interview: Gregory Lamberson Image Credit: Gregory Lamberson Gregory Lamberson is a director, writer, and producer who has been making movies since the late 1980’s, starting with the classic horror flick Slime City (1988). Since then, Lamberson has directed such movies as Naked Fear (1999), Slime City Massacre (2010), Dry Bones (he co-directed this with Michael O’Hear in 2013), the absolutely fantastic horror comedies Killer Rack (2015) and Johnny Gruesome (the best movie of 2018), the truly unsettling horror flick Widow’s Point (2019) starring modern horror icon Craig Sheffer, and the badass action flick Guns of Eden (check out my review of that 2022 flick here). Lamberson is also set to direct his latest movie later this year, the werewolf horror flick Frenzy Moon .
Lamberson is also an author, responsible for the books Black Creek , Carnage Road , Johnny Gruesome , The Frenzy Wolves , and The Jake Helman Files series. Lamberson also co-directed, with Chris Scioli, the Buffalo Dreams Fantastic Film Festival for a decade. Lamberson’s new film festival is Amazing Fantasy Fest, which will be held at the Dipson Amherst Theatre in Buffalo, New York, from Friday, September 13th to Thursday, September 19th.
In this interview, Lamberson talks with this writer about starting up a new film festival, what attendees should expect to see at the festival, and more. ** Image Credit: Chris Cosgrave Bryan Kristopowitz : Why did you end your previous film festival, Buffalo Dr.
