In this episode of Postcards from a Dying World I am excited to welcome Writer, Producer, and Director Brannon Braga. His first job in Hollywood was writing for Star Trek the Next Generation before being the showrunner of Voyager and Enterprise. He also wrote two films in the Star Trek franchise. A three-time Emmy nominee Braga is currently working on The Orville and Cosmos.
In this episode, however, we are talking about his first film as director an adaptation of Clive Barker's classic anthology series The Books of Blood. The first twenty minutes of the conversation is about Horror fiction, Clive's influence, and Braga's working relationship with the master of the Dark Fantastique. Then Braga and I get into the nuts and bolts of writing this film.
The film The Books of Blood plays in interesting ways with structure and story Braga has much to teach writers about the craft of horror storytelling with this film. I am excited that he gave us some insight into the process. We also nerd out about Clive Barker deep cuts, the genius of Stephen Graham Jones, Paperbacks from Hell, and a little bit of Star Trek and The Orville.
