    DREAM EATER on Netflix - Jay Drakulic, Mallory Drumm and Alex Lee Williams Interview

    Christian Zyp interviews Jay Drakulic, Mallory Drumm, Alex Lee Williams (directors/writers/actors) about their film DREAM EATER. Stream it on Netflix in Canada and V.O.D. everywhere.  DREAM EATER follows Mallory (Drumm), a documentary filmmaker, who heads to a remote cabin in the mountains with her boyfriend Alex (Williams) to document his violent parasomnia. As his condition worsens, Mallory suspects something more sinister may be at play. As the nightmares escalate, so do the scares, right through the final frame. “What these three filmmakers have pulled is not just remarkable on a low-budget DIY filmmaking level; they achieve the holy grail of horror, which is to make a movie that absolutely terrifies you.” Eli Roth.

Kim A. Snyder's film examines how lawmakers seek to review a list of books and librarians find themselves on the frontlines of a national battle. Across the U.S., librarians face the impact of uniting against library collection standards that include restrictions on race-related and LGBTQIA+ content. Drawing on historical context, The Librarians explores the broader implications for education and public life.   FInally they discuss an Emilio Estevez film THE PUBLIC.  In the film, a brutal Midwestern cold snap drives homeless library patrons in Cincinnati to stage an Occupy-style sit-in, refusing to leave the library at closing time to avoid freezing. Led by Stuart (Emilio Estevez), a librarian who connects with the patrons, the act of civil disobedience escalates into a standoff with police, a crisis negotiator (Alec Baldwin), and a politically ambitious DA (Christian Slater).  Ex Libris: The New York Public Library TIX INFO:  https://metrocinema.org/event/ex-libris-new-york-public-library/ The Librarians TIX INFO: https://metrocinema.org/event/the-librarians
