Author Details
Sam is a News Editor for Collider and a known lover of all things sci-fi and horror. When she's not editing the daily news, she can be found hanging out with her wife, tweeting about romance, cooking something delicious, and listening to Taylor Swift and Chappell Roan.
Industry Experience
She has been part of the Collider team since October 2021. Previously, she spent five years learning the ropes of entertainment journalism at Tell-Tale TV as a writer and social media manager. She is also a Rotten Tomatoes and The Cherry Picks approved critic and a co-host at The Afictionados Podcast Network. Samantha has conducted several interviews with industry professionals like Star Trek stars Gates McFadden, Jonathan Frakes, Tawny Newsome, Celia Rose Gooding, and Melissa Navia, Doctor Who's next Doctor/Companion duo Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson, Dimension 20's Aabria Iyengar, Lower Decks creator Mike McMahan, The Nun II director Michael Chaves, and more.
Favorite Media
Battlestar Galactica is responsible for igniting her love for Science Fiction, but she is currently loving all things Star Trek and Doctor Who. Her favorite movie of all time is Galaxy Quest, but she's watched The Conjuring movies more times than you can count and will tell you The Incredibles is a perfect film. Samantha is always happy to talk about television shows like Stranger Things, Abbott Elementary, A League of Their Own, Bates Motel, Bridgerton, and Yellowjackets. As a huge fan of well-done storytelling, Samanatha believes that love, in any form, is the key ingredient to a good narrative.
