Overview

• Producers include Johnny Pariseau, Patrick Gooing, and Molly Milstein for Maximum Effort, plus Jack Heller and Caitlin de Lisser-Ellen for Assemble, with Lotta Losten also producing.
• Goodrich first published A Little Slice of Hell in the debut issue of Assemble Artifacts, the short fiction magazine from Assemble Media.
• Sandberg’s credits include Lights Out, Annabelle: Creation, and the two Shazam! films, with his most recent release being Until Dawn last April.
