We hang with actor and filmmaker Devin Montgomery and dig into how he stops waiting for permission, builds Monsters Within from a personal core, and learns every step of the indie film process by doing the work. We also spiral into community talk, post-production realities, and the kind of chaotic side segments that keep our brains broken in the best way.
• Devin’s Air Force upbringing and how it shapes discipline and creativity
• Starting acting later, training hard, and turning auditions into momentum
• The 2020 reset and the decision to create instead of waiting
• The origin of Monsters Within and using horror to explore PTSD and trauma
• Making shorts and features with tiny crews, limited locations, and real constraints
• Dealing with flaky collaborators, protecting integrity, and finishing what you start
• Film festival politics, building an audience, and landing streaming distribution
• What makes a horror movie work, fear on screen vs fear in your head
• Tulsa vs OKC film community and why supportive networks matter
• Post-production lessons on sound, foley, color grading, storage, and workflow
• AI visualization tools, gear rabbit holes, and staying ready with classes and stunts
• Toilet talks and TikTok talent show reactions that go completely off the rails
