-
- Film Interviews
It’s bonus episode time.
In today’s Special Features episode Felicia is joined by Charles Forsman and Joey Gantner to discuss the only punk sci-fi film that matters, Repo Man (Alex Cox 1984).
We chat about how Alex Cox not only made one of the most important films about punk culture but how he was able to successfully infuse other genres to make it a complete story. Along with how members of the LA Punk community came together to create an authentic piece of cinema that continues to grow more of a cult following over the years.
