Garth Marenghi’s Skull-Flusher (with Mike Flanagan)

Garth Marenghi is back…in video form! The greatest living (or unliving) writer of fiction (and occasional alter-ego of Matthew Holness) has returned to expose the shadowy corners of his mind and others’ brains with this new video series, Garth Marenghi’s Skull-Flusher. His inaugural guest is another master of modern horror, Mike Flanagan, and the two discuss their approaches to filmmaking, creativity, art, horror, and more. Or, as Garth puts it:

Greetings, pilgrim. I’m Garth Marenghi, horror author, dreamweaver and, as of this coming week, Skull-Flusher. Let me explicate. To celebrate the publication of my forthcoming novel ‘This Bursted Earth’, volume 3 in my Sunday Times Bestselling TerrorTome trilogy which is out this Hallowee’ee’een, I, Garth Marenghi (Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace plus various films in long-term development hell) will flush my ‘horrific’ mind alongside that of almost-equally renowned horror film director Mike Flanagan (Haunting of Hill House, Doctor Sleep, Midnight Mass, Life of Chuck plus many more films fully completed, with apparently hundreds more in fully-funded pre-production) and explore what darkness lurks within our mutually flushed skulls.

Call it a symposicum twixt Terror Titans; a Marenghiminglement o’ visions; a Flanafusion o’ minds, or just Garth Marenghi’s Skull-Flusher, which is the best one.

Marvel as two Archdukes o’ Darkdom discuss frankly and unfetteredly about their respective working methods, their preferred campfire-based sanitary arrangements and whose ouevre is bigger (spoiler alert - it’s mine). There’ll even be a cautionary warning or two about signing Faustian pacts in the workplace, so can also qualify as a magazine-style show if potential sponsors are listening. This Skull-Flush is the event of a lifetime. Nothing in Heaven or Hell, and certainly on this bursted earth (outside the plumbing industry, perhaps) can compare.
