PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmaker Sebastian Vanicek (INFESTED) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen to discuss his career journey and the making of his first feature film. From making short films… to how Netflix fully funded the film… to why Ridley Scott was such a big influence on him… to the advantage of shooting widescreen for such a “vertical” film… to shooting in a real apartment complex and working with actors big and small… to how he approaches scares and tension on a budget… to INFESTED’s world premiere at the Venice film festival… to the excitement of getting a “Stephen King Tweet” about his film… to gearing up for his next feature (part of the EVIL DEAD series)… Sebastien is making quite an impact right out of the gate!

PUBLIC VERSION. Producer Alex Lebovici (BILL & TED FACE THE MUSIC, BARBARIAN, BOY KILLS WORLD) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen in the ArieScope studio to share his career journey. From getting arrested shooting a short film as a kid growing up in Canada… to being rejected from every film school in Canada for having bad grades… to attending the NY Film Academy in Los Angeles where he was assigned to make 2 short films but instead made 12… to losing his visa and having to go back to Canada… to making the decision to learn the business side of things as a way to work his way back to Hollywood… to the unlikely business he started that provided him with the skills and resources he needed to become a producer… to his triumphant return to Hollywood where he made 21 movies over the next 10 years… to the absolute nightmare situation he went through while producing 2020’s BILL & TED FACE THE MUSIC and the importance of remaining persistent and never giving up no matter what goes wrong… Alex provides a crash course in inspiration that will have anyone who is feeling beaten down ready to get back up and into the fight!

Filmmaker Renny Harlin (NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4, DIE HARD 2, CLIFFHANGER, DEEP BLUE SEA, THE LONG KISS GOODNIGHT, DRIVEN, EXORCIST: THE BEGINNING) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen to discuss his long and incredible career journey. From growing up in Finland and sneaking into restricted films underage… to watching a scene being filmed for Don Siegel’s TELEFON (1977) as a child and deciding in that moment that he was going to become a Hollywood action director… to how shooting just a part of his debut feature BORN AMERICAN (1986) lead to a US production company fully financing the rest of the production… to his early days being broke and struggling in Hollywood while living in a friend’s garage… to how casting Kane Hodder in his first role as a creature character in 1987’s PRISON lead to John Carl Buechler casting Kane as “Jason Voorhees” one year later… to making A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4: THE DREAM MASTER and how he came up with and shot the film’s amazing opening sequence… to the unfortunate timing of 1990’s THE ADVENTURES OF FIRD FAIRLANE which was released right as the cultural backlash began against comedian/star Andrew Dice Clay and how the film has surprisingly gone on to become one of his most beloved… to working with Sylvester Stallone on 1993’s CLIFFHANGER… to creating one of the most memorable moments in cinema while shooting 1999’s DEEP BLUE SEA… to making his latest feature THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 1 (in theaters this weekend!) as part of a trilogy that was shot all at once… to the real reason he has yet to attend a DGA social event… Renny candidly opens up in this phenomenal conversation that is filled with cinema anecdotes, filmmaking advice and loads of inspiration.

PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmaker Francis Galluppi (THE LAST STOP IN YUMA COUNTY) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen to discuss his career journey and the making of his debut feature. From playing drums in punk bands before a broken wrist found him with 6 months off and time on his hands to teach himself how to make movies through watching YouTube tutorials… to his musical approach to his filmmaking craft… to the crazy story of how his short film playing at a horror convention lead to him raising the financing for YUMA (in theaters and available on digital May 10th)… to writing the film’s script based around the locations and resources he knew he could get… to how accepting an offer to option his script almost prevented his film from ever getting made… to how he shot in a commonly used location yet made it appear unique… and how he was able to put such an incredible cast together on such a limited budget… Francis’ success story will surely inspire every aspiring filmmaker that hears it! The boys also reflect on the 11th anniversary of THE MOVIE CRYPT which premiered on May 6, 2013.
