[Interview] ‘Bone Lake’ Director Mercedes Bryce Morgan on Bringing Sex Back to Horror

The new erotic thriller Bone Lake is heating up theaters now, and we talked to director Mercedes Bryce Morgan recently about bringing sex back to horror, and more.

In our video conversation last week, we also of course discussed Halloween, as Morgan tells she’s still a goth kid at heart and has always adored the Halloween as a lifestyle far more than a season.

In the film: “A couple’s romantic vacation at a secluded lakeside estate is upended when they are forced to share the mansion with a mysterious and attractive couple. In this darkly hilarious and seductive horror story, a dream getaway spirals into a nightmarish maze of sex, lies, and manipulation, bringing terrifying secrets to light and triggering a bloody battle for survival.”

Directed Mercedes Bryce Morgan (Fixation, Spoonful of Sugar) and written by Joshua Friedlander, the two couples are played by Maddie Hasson, Marco Pigossi, Andra Nechita, and Alex Roe.

Bone Lake is currently playing in select theaters.
