It’s been a while since I’ve done a proper discussion on the current theatrical landscape, and what it looks like for me personally. With some news today, it seems like a good time to return to the conversation. Today, Warner Bros. announced that, like they will be doing on Christmas Day with “Wonder Woman 1984,” […]
On this episode of the podcast, I am joined by a familiar voice in filmmaker Jakob Bilinski. In this discussion, we go the duration, and more, of its runtime to wax poetic, and make wild tangents, to discuss John Woo’s “Face/Off”. I hope you enjoy! Episode 75 – Jakob Bilinski and I on “Face/Off” Viva […]
It’s been a while since I’ve done a blog like this about my October horror movie watching. I kind of wanted to this year. I began this in October of 2003. It served a primary purpose initially of working on getting through the horror movies in my Netflix Queue at the time, but over the […]
Last year, I dedicated much of my podcasting to breaking down the movies of 1999. This year, I was not going to repeat the process for 2000, but when Death Ensemble’s P. Fasso suggests discussing this grab bag of a year in horror through the lens of four films- “Final Destination”, “Hollow Man”, “The Cell” […]
On this episode of the podcast, I am joined by a familiar voice in filmmaker David Spaltro. Here, we review the recent horror anthology, “Books of Blood”, and discuss Clive Barker, anthologies, and horror in the age of streaming. I hope you enjoy! Episode 73 – David Spaltro and I on “Books of Blood” Viva […]
On this episode of the podcast, I welcome filmmaker K/XI. I first met her at the Women in Horror Film Festival, and wanted to bring her on the podcast as her psychological horror film, “Black Lake”, gets set to play at the Salem Horror Fest. I hope you enjoy! Episode 72 – Interview with K/XI […]
Octobers had a special place in my musical career for a lot of years. Now, I bring that full-circle. The COVID-19 pandemic has been surprisingly robust for me, as I was able to focus a lot on Sonic Cinema even when movie theatres shuttered back in March, and film release schedules became barren. In May, […]
On this episode of the podcast, Brian recounts the 11 days of the 2020 Atlanta Film Festival, the films he loved, and shares interviews with filmmakers Steven Robert Morse (the documentary, “The Cold Dark Night”) and Carlton Daniel Jr. (the short film, “Homegoing”). I hope you enjoy! Episode 71 – Atlanta Film Festival 2020 2020 […]
My first film festival experience was in 2002, but it wasn’t enough to really get a feel for the festival, as a whole; I was there for one reason- to watch Amber Benson’s “Chance”, and I know that I was not the only one. I’ve taken in several panels and short film blocks at DragonCon’s […]
I haven’t really talked about the movies I have seen at the Atlanta Film Festival this year. It’s certainly nothing against those films, many of which I’ve really liked, but this year, I just fell into a routine with these write-ups of previewing what is ahead in the festival. That, in and of itself, is […]
