  • 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.
