“Will you then retreat into obscurity the way I did away from the scorn and mocking eyes of an ignorant society? Latch onto a more socially acceptable obsession like I found with my vintage songs. Something that stirs dark emotions within you but reminds you that you’re alone forever. Just you and your dummy and a black hole of utter despair.”

Welcome to Additional Crew, the spoiler-heavy review show where we choose whatever random film we want to talk about. This episode we bring to you “One of the strange guests at the eerie inn is a serial killer, trapping a ventriloquist investigator and his wooden sidekick.”

I am of course talking about Rob Margolies’ “The Dummy Detective” released this year, 2025. This movie will be fun, and for the first time on our podcast we get to bring to you an interview with both director Rob Margolies and writer/producer/lead actor Jonathan Geffner. We’re incredibly excited to have them with us and hope this is as entertaining for you guys as it is for us.
