Horror director David Bruckner is sometimes said to be a subsidiary member of the filmmaking unit Radio Silence which was started by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin, Tyler Gillett, Justin Martinez and Chad Villella. Bruckner's own career has arguably eclipsed those of his filmmaking associates and he's been going from strength to strength. He spent some years living in Atlanta, Georgia and was able to compose a film crew in the local area for his breakthrough picture 'The Signal' (2007). He also works with Roxanne Benjamin whose new film 'Body At Brighton Rock' (2019) was released in April.
"Well, I had done a segment for V/H/S, which is another horror anthology, and that was more of a solo experience. I was living in Atlanta at the time and I was a fan of several of the filmmakers that were involved in that project's work. So, that was one I just ran off with my creative cohorts. But, the process of bringing V/H/S to the festival circuit, I really got to know a lot of the other filmmakers really well and many of those became friends coming out of that and there's just a lot of camaraderie and respect. Everybody found themselves for a moment in the cross-section, you know, we made this weird thing and what did it mean and what was the response and how did it all come together and i think inside that experience it facilitated just a lot of creative conversation. So, years later when Roxanne Benjamin called me and she knew I was in a little bit of a development hell-swirl, I just had a lot of projects I wanted to get made and it was hard. And she called and just said her and Brad Miska, who was on V/H/S. I'd known Brad since back in 2007 when we did our first movie, The Signal, and her and Brad were gonna go do this other anthology and asked if I wanted to go out and do something crazy with them and that I could be shooting in two months and I could do whatever I want. And so it was a no-brainer. And then through that process we knew we wanted to find another filmmaker and so we came across a bunch of different filmmakers and came across Dallas Richard Hallam and Patrick Horvath's movie Entrance. And I think we all had a great reverence for what that was. Then we met those guys and were like "yes, come play with us. Let's do this."
