“I definitely want to see more from Arellano because the direction of [‘Griffica’], the writing of it—it’s smart, it’s clever, it’s self-aware, and I want to see more of that.”
Horror Queers podcast (hosted by Bloody Disgusting critics Joe Lipsett & Trace Thurman)
“‘Griffica’ tows the line between ambiguity and the supernatural, crafting a compelling story which will have you asking questions up until the credits.”
