In this episode of The Fixate & Binge Podcast, I sit down sit down with director Daniel DelPurgatorio and producer Todd M. Friedman to dive deep into their critically acclaimed indie-horror gem, MARSHMALLOW.
The conversation explores the film’s clever meta-take on summer camp horror, what it was like filming with such a fantastic cast of child actors, and the unique creative energy between Daniel and Todd that brought this original and terrifying vision to life, from new production studio, Hemlock Circle.
With influences ranging from classic slashers to modern psychological horror, MARSHMALLOW has quickly become one of the most talked-about horror films of 2025—earning a fiercely loyal fanbase, especially from yours, truly.
Whether you’re a die-hard horror fan or just curious how indie filmmaking magic happens, this episode pulls back the curtain on one of the year’s most unforgettable genre films.
