Vt. filmmaker talks about new comedy-horror creation

BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) – A Vermont filmmaker has come out with a new comedy-horror movie that is now streaming and coming to local theaters soon.

“The Yorkie Werewolf” is the work of director Michael DiBiasio-Ornelas. He says it’s about a teen witch who gets turned into a tiny werewolf and gets thrown into a decades-old war between one small town’s creatures of the night and the local mafia.

Screenings are coming up in late January in Burlington, St Albans, and Brattleboro. It’s also now available to buy or rent on Apple TV.

Cat Viglienzoni spoke with DiBiasio-Ornelas about how it all came together.
