    Ep 62 - David Andrew James (Bag of Lies)
    Nov 12 2024
    Actor turned filmmaker, David Andrew James (who shares a striking resemblence to Shia LaBeouf) has been making a lot of noise in the horror world with his film “Bag of Lies”. The simplicity of the film and relatable storyline really packed a punch on me and I had to have him on the pod to hear how it all began!

    Halloween episode!! Interview with Michael Ciminna ("Jack's Lantern" and "By the Campfire"
    Oct 28 2024
    I’ve known filmmaker Michael Ciminna for a number of years and I always wanted to bring him on the pod but our schedules never lined up. This Halloween he’s releasing a great proof of concept film called “Jack’s Lantern” about a young boy who believes his jack-o-lanterns can come to life. We talk about growing up and riding bikes, making movies and more!
    Check out “Jack’s Lantern” streaming on YouTube and Vimeo! While you’re there, check out Ciminna’s other film, “By The Campfire,” a great psychological thriller short.

    Cult Classics with Chris - Ep. 28 - William Malone (House on Haunted Hill, feardotcom, Scared To Death)
    Oct 8 2024
    Welcome to "Cult Classics with Chris," the podcast within "Classic American Movies" where I will interview cult filmmakers. This time I'm talking with William Malone. There is a 100% chance you’ve seen his work: he designed masks (creating the Michael Myers’ mask), he’s made many fun horror films for over 40 years including Tales From the Crypt episodes, movies and more!
    I’ve been a big fan of Malone’s since I first saw his 1999 remake of “House on Haunted Hill” (as discussed in Miriam and my’s episode) and finally getting a chance to sit down and talk with him was a lot of fun. From start to finish, he truly was inspiring to talk to and offered a lot of knowledge on films as well as cracking a lot of jokes. A wonderful class act of a man. Please check out his YouTube channel, Undertaking Cinema where William discusses all things cinema!

    Also, I decided to write and direct my first slasher flick, called "Bishop's Day"! Check out the Instagram page for updates.

    Ep 61 - FearDotCom (Part 2)
    Sep 25 2024
    One of the big reasons I love having Ryan on the pod is that he always brings a lot of information and knows how to use it. We do a deeper talk on this cult classic as well as talk about what the dark web actually is. This episode packs a lot of information that the average person doesn’t know about the internet. Remeber to check out Videodrome to rent this flick as well as many other 2000's horror classics!

  • Bonus Episode - BS vol 3

    Bonus Episode - BS vol 3
    Sep 19 2024
    One of the more popular episodes I have done was the snippets of stuff I talk about with my guest hosts, in which I call bs’ing. There’s no hot takes or anything controversial, this is literally what it’s like to hang out with me and my friends. We talk movies, LOTR (shocking) and more movies!

    Be on the lookout for "Bishop's Day", a proof of concept film I wrote and will be directing. It's "Friday the 13th", "Scream" and "Valentine" in one fun, violent slasher!

    Ep. 60 - Feardotcom (Part 1)
    Sep 9 2024
    What do you do about the title of your movie when the person who owns the internet domain won’t sell? Well, you add “Dotcom” to your title!
    Ryan McCurdy (of the Ranked) podcast is back to talk about a flick I still have the ticket for after seeing it in theaters 22 years ago! At the time, the internet was pretty unknown to the general public and the first thing filmmakers did was make a horror movie about it! I saw "feardotcom" when I was 18 and didn’t think about it since then. However, much like “Gothika,” I kept seeing the DVD at the Goodwill and thought it was time to talk about this nostalgic internet killer thriller. As usual, Ryan and I can’t stop talking and this episode became a two-parter. I loved this movie after rewatching it and after finding out Videodrome didn't have it to rent, I gave them my copy!

  • Ep. 59 - Keaton Lange

    Ep. 59 - Keaton Lange
    Aug 26 2024
    Straight out of out the Appalachia Mountains in North Carolina, friend of mine Keaton Lange has been writing and creating music for over 20 years. Being a natural story teller, his lyrics paint a wonderful picture on a canvas of folk music that is a true gem to listen to. I’ve been wanting to bring him on the pod for awhile and with the release of his second EP, “The Runaway,” I couldn’t think of a better time. I was thrilled to finally sit down and talk with him about his lyrics, inspirations and life.
    Keaton has a live performance this Saturday, August 31st at the PYK Gallery in Atlanta. Doors open at 7pm. Click the link for tickets!

  • Ep. 58 - Soul Survivors (with Ziggy)

    Ep. 58 - Soul Survivors (with Ziggy)
    Aug 12 2024
    Last time we saw Ziggy, we were talking about the Tarantino-inspired crime thriller “Suicide Kings.” This episode was supposed to recorded months prior to us actually recording it, but many circumstances prevented Zig and I from recording.
    “Soul Survivors,” is arguably the most complex college-aged horror film of the 2000’s, and I’ve seen most of them. An-all star cast (before they became massive names), when they were all working on their craft shine in this often looked-over flick. The pod, much like the movie, was all over the place and I was thrilled to have Zig with me to on this journey!
