    'Leviticus' Director Adrian Chiarella

    Adrian Chiarella joins Schmear to talk Leviticus, his debut queer horror feature out of Australia. We get into the origin of that biblical title and the sermon scene he cut, why he refused to cast 25-year-olds as teenagers, and how he found his two leads, Joe Bird and Stacey Clausen, including the dual role that meant building a horror entity from scratch. Adrian breaks down the films in the DNA of Leviticus (The Thing, Onibaba) and pushes back on the "Heated Rivalry meets It Follows" pitch. Plus, the bootleg VHS childhood that made him a cinephile (Red Sorghum, early Wong Kar-wai with no subtitles); why Cure rewired his brain; his NO NOTES pick, his love of Picnic at Hanging Rock; queer horror from A Nightmare on Elm Street 2 to I Saw the TV Glow; and why the genre is having a moment.

    Director Michael Sarnoski on 'The Death of Robin Hood'

    Michael Sarnoski—director of Pig and A Quiet Place: Day One—sits down with No Notes to talk about The Death of Robin Hood, in theaters now. We get into the centuries-old ballad he first read as a ten-year-old, handed to him by a family friend after his father passed, and how that quiet, mortal ending of an "immortal" folk hero never let him go. Plus: casting Hugh Jackman as a Robin who weaponizes storytelling; reuniting with Jodie Comer; why he keeps accidentally subverting the revenge film; his Death Stranding adaptation (with Hideo Kojima's blessing); the one perfect NYC slice; and the Sam Raimi Spider-Man moment that taught a self-taught kid from Wisconsin what a director actually does.

    'Widow's Bay' Director Hiro Murai

    Hiro Murai sat down with us, and we still can't believe it. The director behind Atlanta, This Is America, Station Eleven, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, and now Apple TV+'s Widow's Bay joins Schmear and Sena to get into all of it. We talk about the cozy-and-terrifying tone of Widow's Bay, working with Matthew Rhys and creator Katie Dippold, and why Hiro chases the feeling of "Is this even going to work?" on every project instead of the slam dunk. Then we go deep on the catalog: Teddy Perkins, Alligator Man, the crawlspace clown, the chaos of shooting This Is America in two days, and the foundational weirdness of Clapping for the Wrong Reasons. He gives us his NO NOTES picks, casts NO NOTES movies for the Widow's Bay characters, and refuses to tell us what's behind the show's closed door.

    'Obsession' with Director Curry Barker

    Curry Barker is the director of OBSESSION — the wickedly funny, deeply unsettling horror film that had us screaming with joy at South by Southwest. Sena and Gabriel sit down with him to talk wishes gone wrong, the comedy-to-horror pipeline, and the breakout performance from Inde Navarrette. Curry walks us through how a story about a couple obsessed with each other curdled into a meditation on masculinity, consent, and the gap between wanting something and deserving it. He gets into the audition take that told him the movie was going to work, design the One Wish Willow talisman with his mom, makes the talisman's signature sound on his phone, and ranks the classic wish-gone-wrong talismans from the Monkey's Paw to the Midas Touch to the Faustian bargain. OBSESSION is in theaters May 15.

    Devon Bostick of MILE END KICKS

    Mile End Kicks star Devon Bostick joins Schmear and Sena for a conversation about one of the most charming Canadian films of the year. Devon shares his NO NOTES perfect movie pick, gets into what it was like to return to the exact era he was filming Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and channel all of that into Archie and raves about co-star Barbie Ferreira and what made her such a special presence on set. They also play a round of Over/Under rating Montreal, the 2010s as a decade, and dating multiple members of the same band. They close with Devon making a very strong case for why Nirvana the Band the Show the Movie is one of the most underrated films of the year.

    'Blue Heron' Director Sophy Romvari

    BLUE HERON director Sophy Romvari joins Schmear to discuss her moving new film. They get into why a zoom lens beats a dolly on every setup, the story behind her late brother's real hand-drawn maps and what they mean to the film, and the time jump you won't see coming. Romvari also shares her NO NOTES perfect movie pick, reflects on Spielberg's A.I. as the first film she ever saw in a theater, weighs in on what Canadian cinema is quietly getting so right right now, and closes on a wildcard dream project that has nothing to do with anything she's made before.

    'Lord of the Flies' Director Marc Munden

    Director Marc Munden on his hallucinatory new Netflix adaptation of Lord of the Flies—pulling the infrared filter off the camera and letting the jungle bleed pink. We get into casting with Nina Gold, five weeks of rehearsals, and why Lox Pratt (next up as Draco in HBO's Harry Potter) plays Jack like a spoiled rock star prince. Plus: directing the final episodes of The Sympathizer with Robert Downey Jr. and Park Chan-wook; his No Notes pick (Sweet Smell of Success); and why Lord of the Flies isn't about toxic masculinity—it's about a dutiful democrat losing to an entitled narcissist. Marc Munden's Lord of the Flies is streaming now on Netflix.
