By Seth Metoyer, MoreHorrorMovies.com - Every time an independent horror film explodes across the internet, two competing emotions rise inside me. First, I feel genuine excitement. I have spent a substantial part of the past 15 years producing more than 20 independent films and composing music for several others.
