Episode 160: Interview with Moviemaker Scooter McCrae

Moviemaker Scooter McCrae burst onto the scene in 1994 with an underground shot on video zombie classic, Shatter Dead. The movie was better technically than most first time films for auteurs in the 90s, and had more depth of subject than most as well.After Shatter Dead he has gone on to make Sixteen Tongues, a 17-minute short Saint Frankenstein, and a new movie that got a VSP release at Black Friday, Black Eyed Susan.I would consider any of these movies as must see. Scooter is an intellectual with an anarchic spirit and every project is inventive and pushes genre in new and exciting ways.In addition to being a talented moviemaker, however, Scooter is a gem of a human and his humility and humanity shine during the episode. I can't wait for people to hear the passion and sharp wit coming from Scooter in the episode. I'll leave a few links below to where you can find his work. Let me know what you think of the interview and if you would like to hear from more underground and SOV auteurs.https://vimeo.com/350200089 - Saint Frankensteinhttps://vinegarsyndrome.com/collections/saturns-core?page=2 - Shatter Dead and Sixteen Tongues available hereYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@theylivebyfilmThe Radiance Films Podcast: https://podfollow.com/1762070615Punk Vacation: An Unofficial Vinegar Syndrome Podcast: https://podfollow.com/1760290937Wild Side: The Official Monda Macabro Podcast: https://podfollow.com/1762695719Adam's Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/TheOwls23/Adam's Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/adamlundy.bsky.socialZach's Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/dharmabombs/Chris' subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/personalhistoryoffilm

Episode 157: Interview with Elijah Drenner (Filmmaker and Co-Founder of Dekanalog)

Elijah was kind enough to join and talk about his career as a filmmaker, his day job at Vinegar Syndrome, and his passion project Dekanalog. This was a very candid interview and we had fun talking about the wonderful movies in the Dekanalog back catalog. We also briefly got into a thought provoking topic about why the cinema of certain countries naturally seems more compelling than others. I had a great time with Elijah and I hope you enjoy it too!https://www.dekanalog.com/films/#our-filmsYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@theylivebyfilmThe Radiance Films Podcast: https://podfollow.com/1762070615Punk Vacation: An Unofficial Vinegar Syndrome Podcast: https://podfollow.com/1760290937Wild Side: The Official Monda Macabro Podcast: https://podfollow.com/1762695719Adam's Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/TheOwls23/Adam's Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/adamlundy23Zach's Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/dharmabombs/Chris' subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/personalhistoryoffilm

Episode 153: The Genius of Michele Soavi with Samm Deighan

New interview with Samm Deighan - noted film historian and host of the Eros + Massacre podcast.Some of you may have heard this before, Samm was kind enough to let us repost the audio from our conversation about Michele Soavi. If you have not heard her podcast yet you can get a sample here, she was nice enough to invite me on as a first guest. Since then she has covered Funeral Parade of Roses, sexual anarchist Rudy Ray Moore, blu-ray anarchist Adam Torel of Third Window films, a Bava episode, plus a conversation with Fabio Frizzi. I love what her show has become and hope this serves as a good sample.Either way, please enjoy this. I hope my love for Michele Soavi and Italian genre cinema shines through. Looking forward we have some very exciting guests that are just getting scheduled, so the fall season will see a bunch of activity again after a brief time away. Cheers!https://cinepunx.com/podcast-episodes/eros-massacre/https://www.patreon.com/sammdeighanhttps://new.reddit.com/r/personalhistoryoffilm/https://letterboxd.com/personalhistory/
