IFWT #130 - Deadbeat at Dawn(1988) [ft. Jed Maheu of Zig Zags]
Update: 2025-08-07
Description
We're dipping our toes into the world of Jim Van Bebber - the controversial filmmaker of works such as My Sweet Satan and The Manson Family. But for this episode we're going back to his feature length debut Deadbeat at Dawn, a gangland tale of revenge, the occult and murder, that showed the same shoe-string ingenuity as contemporary Sam Raimi's The Evil Dead.
And for this episode we're joined by Jed Maheu, leader of punk-metallers Zig Zags, who's band has just released they're most successful album to date, Deadbeat at Dawn - yup, name after Van bebber's grindhouse classic. So expect a discussion that delves into DIY culture, life in a touring band and the madness that comes with creating art that sits in the margins.
