Split Your Head

This episode features an interview with filmmaker, Steven Adam Renkovish. Adam's been churning out regional DIY horror films that feel as cerebral as they are evocative over the past decade. With his latest short, The Strange Disappearance of Emily Jayne, he's now leaned into something more autumnal, nostalgic and queer, as he's recently come out as gay and found empowerment in creating a spooky Halloween tale for his inner child. We go over his other heavy and surreal horror films, while also touching on his personal struggles with faith, his strength to come out of the closet while living in the Bible Belt, and how all of that feeds into his need for community where the cinema is his true church. We had such a wonderful chat and I want to thank Adam for being so vulnerable and honest. So stoked for what he does next!

This episode features an interview with BC-based filmmaker, Joshua Gratton. His new film, Platypus, is a hazy lo-fi slasher that is as gorgeous as it is esoteric, a bonafide 'murderdrone' masterpiece that just had its premiere at Fantastic Fest. What is murderdrone? Well, you've got to dive in to find out! This episode is for the real slasher aficionados, as we touch on some of the most obscure titles that inspired Platypus and how Gratton achieved that *authenticity* that screams "2am viewing of a 1981 slasher flick". A perfect chat to bring us into October, check it out!https://www.instagram.com/jostdagost/https://www.instagram.com/muscledistribution/https://www.muscle-distribution.com/https://letterboxd.com/jostdagost/Spilt Your Head is proud to be a part of the Someone's Favorite Productions Podcast Network.

WARNING: This video contains discussions of controversial and sensitive subjects in film and art. Please proceed with caution.This episode features an interview with Matt & Jon from the Sick on Cinema podcast. As two legendary podcasters going on almost 10 years of broadcasting their explorations of messed up cinema, I had a lot to ask them and a lot of wisdom to pull out of their oozing heads. We covered so many topics, like the importance of community, the need to lift up the underground, what kinda movies make us cry, and what kinda movies go way too far... for us at least. It was a blast chatting with these two gents and I can only hope that we'll continue to collaborate for many years to come (although I'll probably retire SYH long before they ever close up shop).

This episode features an interview with Costa Dillon, one of the creators of the Attack of the Killer Tomatoes franchise. Costa has co-written every entry all the way up to this brand new sequel, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: Organic Intelligence. So with more than 50 years creating absurd parodies of creature features, we got to talking about classic cinema, media literacy, the evolution of FX, and so much more. I kept trying to coax a political rant out of him but he insisted the only enemy we have to look out for is the tomatoes! This was quite a delightful surprise. The 5th entry is currently playing limited theatres before hitting VOD by the end of September.

This episode features an interview with legendary underground filmmaker, Joe Meredith. Joe has been sculpting out a fantastical filmography the past decade with his films like Variant 1 & 2, Ataraxia, Teratomorph, and most recently -- Harvest Brood. We dive into his processes, his inspirations, and how Harvest Brood differs from his more supernatural-drenched sci-fi mind-melters of the past. Joe is quite the elusive artist, full of talent and mystery, as this is one of his only podcast appearances he's done thus far. Hopefully not his last because his output has been too incredible for him to hide in the shadows.
