Alice Maio Mackay on 'The Twilight Saga'

July 23, 2026 · 53 min

Show notes

With a glance at her lengthy filmography, you'd never know that Australian filmmaker Alice Maio Mackay is barely in her twenties. THE SERPENT'S SKIN (now available on digital and Blu-Ray) is her sixth feature. And while her work is generally categorized as horror or fantasy, the undercurrent of romance there is a tell for the romantic saga that made her feel seen: TWILIGHT (the books, the movies, the whole series). So which Bella is she? And how has she made so many movies already? Jordan asks all this and more...

Then, Jordan has one quick thing about Alice's next movie, plus an indie from SERPENT'S SKIN actor Avalon Fast.
