"It's only a matter of time before Jeremiah Kipp kicks open the Hollywood gates and shows them what's what. Having already worked with the likes of Larry Fessenden, Tom Savini and Harry Manfredini, he's well on his way to becoming a major name in the genre." - from profile at Midnight Cinephile

"Kipp shows a highly developed sense of visual storytelling. The technical credits are vastly superior to many of the short films I’ve seen at most festivals." - thanks Dusty McGowan / Playground of Doom

Guillermo is also directing an episode of IN FEAR OF featuring the wonderful actress and culture maven Jill Di Donato.

I had the opportunity to work internationally because of Guillermo, assistant directing his short film THE DOLL HOUSE in his home town of Valencia, Spain.  It was a rich and rewarding experience, the opportunity to see cultural differences in filmmaking, and the chance to see a friend and fellow artist at work.  I look forward to many new films from Guillermo in 2013.

Interview with Pete Croatto at What Pete's Watching - about being a filmmaker and a film critic.

"Matt Zoller Seitz is a complex man who made a rich film about grief, loss, love, friendship, rage at God and perhaps a mini-catharsis, or catharsis as stepping stone. Did his film criticism inform that? It didn't hurt. t gave him tools for his toolbox. But also life is a hard teacher, and if you can get that into your movie work, that's a powerful thing. I'd love to work with Matt again someday."

Interview with Cinema Terror

http://cinematerror.com/interviews/interview-with-jeremiah-kipp/

"I love working with actors, and owe everything to them and their talent. For this kind of work, it’s essential to have performers who are brave, daring and sincere, who are totally committed to doing the work, who bring the rawest parts of themselves to these roles. And it doesn’t feel dangerous or scary for them. The actors have to go deep, but ultimately they are smiling and relaxed afterwards, having been through a powerful and cathartic experience. It’s actually quite healthy, which is perhaps why actors tend to live so much longer than the rest of us. They are able to express themselves fully, to play, to explore sides of themselves we don’t always find in so-called real life."
