ScaryorDie.com is a horror destination site created by Michael Emanuel and fellow filmmaker partners Igor Meglic, David Reivers and Bruce Johnson in support of other filmmakers and their fans to upload, view and vote on horror shorts, original series and feature films. At ScaryorDie.com, the content that gets the most favorable votes will get the best placement on the site. In addition to shorts, Emanuel and his partners are producing and acquiring original programming in both short form (series) and long form (features). Their goal is to create a digital studio where the only agenda is what the fans want.
Says Emanuel, “Scary or Die started a long time ago with a boy and a dream…actually a boy and some really disturbing dreams of decomposing corpses, vampires, werewolves, zombies, skeletons, frightening clowns and a little homunculus named Barzog who lived under his bed who told him he was no good and that nobody really loved him except Satan. Ahh, fond memories,…well that little boy used those scary dreams as the catalyst to murder some mimes and then a local pig farmer…and then a dog…and a wingless parrot…and a family of silverfish who wear top hats and monocles and sing show tunes.”
