Many are even quick to claim that every Netflix series he puts out is a work of art and that his Stephen King adaptations are some of the best they have ever seen. Because he is a filmmaker known for tackling gothic, fantastic, and challenging themes, a lot of us are left wondering what he watches in his downtime.

Love You Mama was written and directed by Alexandra Magistro and stars Madeleine Arthur, Samantha Sloyan, and Matt Biedel.
In the film, after the sudden death of her father, a young woman becomes haunted by the uncertainty of the world around her.
The short is just barely over twenty minutes long and has been running the festival circuit with major stops like the Fantasia Film Festival and Fright Fest. Love You Mama only arrived on YouTube three weeks ago when it was uploaded by Basement Widow Productions.
