The Pusher movies are so real that it is almost like watching drug dealers live their lives in front of a hidden camera. The power was going in and out in Astoria Queens while I was trying to watch the movies so I had to view them in chunks. In a way it was almost like visiting a drug dealers house all day and seeing...

the triple bill is playing in Chicago on October 20th... i'm going to try and get to it, because i loved the first one.

if you can, you should definately watch bleeder aswell. one of the most dificult movies i have ever watched... it's fantastic. has a very depressing mood and feeling to it. captures a lonely copenhagen very well, in my opinion.
Neil Marshall has created a very scary movie with The Descent. It is a classic story of a group of people going someplace they shouldnt and encountering monsters. This time it is a group of women who go spelunking and confront cave dwelling monsters. Marshall first made a name for himself in the horror genre with his hybrid Rio Bravo meets werewolves movie Dog Soldiers....

omg, Neil on SG 
This guy graduated from my course at Uni, he came back one day to do a talk but I was skiving in town
He's arguably our most famous graduate so far. He's the reason we got imposed on 5 minute limits for our final year films each, cos Niel and co booked out all the lights and equipment for ages to make a 40 minute werewolf movie for his final year!
Always nice to hear how he's doing since he made it big.

The Descent sucked.
The Watson Twins are the soft spoken southern group who has gained popularity backing Jenny Lewis on her recent tours. I got a chance to talk to one half The Watson Twins about working with Jenny, being a food twin and their new album, Southern Manners.

On an extremely hot and humid day in Brooklyn New York, producer Celine Rattray was nice enough to invite me to visit the set of the new film, Watching the Detectives, written and directed by Broken Lizard member Paul Soter. At this point Soter is best known as the bootie flashing state trooper in the comedy cult hit, Super Troopers. It turns out that Soter...

Filmmaker Lucky McKee certainly lives up to his name. Just after releasing one film, May, McKee was invited to participate in one of the greatest gatherings of directors ever on television, Masters of Horror. McKee has apparently proved himself to certain Masters with May becoming a cult film and The Woods quickly gathering buzz on the festival circuit. He handled his episode of Masters of...

Ben Edlund is a comedy genius. I first discovered his comic book, The Tick, when New England Comics put in one of their ads A combination of The Punisher and Wolverine! I was pulled in by this gimmick only to find that The Tick had more in common with Bob Burdens Flaming Carrot and Sergio Aragons Groo the Wanderer. The Tick is a mysterious big...

Oh crap. Yeah, I have a VHS tape with all the episodes
taped off tv. I need to find that. See if it's still viewable.

Thanks for the link!!!

ok, not enough people active in the UpstateSGNY Group for my liking so i'm going around letting people know that there are new members to the group who would feel more welcome if they actually got a few "welcomes."
also, i'm trying to get a darien lake event around for end of aug/beginning of sept possibly. check out the thread in the group for more info and let me know what you think.

Mike Reiss is living the American dream. After being a highly successful writer on The Simpsons since the 80s, he was able to parlay that experience into creating Queer Duck. Originally Queer Duck was a series of short cartoons for Showtime. But for the first time Queer Duck has become a full length feature film. The movie has 12 musical numbers and more anthropomorphic gay...

Dan Mazer is the perfect example of immigrants coming over to America and taking our jobs. He was doing perfectly well over in the UK as co-creator of Ali G and various other characters with Sacha Baron Cohen. In fact hes even got another movie coming out in theatres soon called Borat based on an Ali G character. But no hes got to come over...

Funniest show on television, it makes me want to wear a fanny pack!
dickstarr:
This show is definately along the lines of Ali G, only the envelope has been pushed further into the right direction. I think the cast is quickly finding their niche and playing off of each other extremely well. This interview was wonderful as I now consider Dan Mazer a comedy genius. I'm also so excited to see Walsh back on the tube.
It was a real treat and a pleasure to get to talk to living legend Alan Arkin. I told a number of people that I was going to talk to the Oscar nominated improv guru and they said either You got to ask him about Glengarry Glen Ross. I was like Fuck that Im going to talk to him about Bad Medicine! But of course...

Talking with The Blues Explosions Jon Spencer was an absolute pleasure. It was more of a conversation about music and comic books than just your ordinary run of the mill interview. But mostly we concentrated on Spencers latest collaboration, Heavy Trash, which is Rockabilly inflected album created with Matt Verta-Ray of Speedball Baby.

I have completely lost track of how many Jon Spencer/Heavy Trash shows I've been to but one thing I'm sure of is that each and every show rocked. These boys NEVER disappoint... this mans' voice can and does make hetero women orgasm in their pants, I speak from personal experience.

Robin Hardy cemented his place in film history in the early 70s when he wrote and directed the cult film, The Wicker Man. Since then Hardy has done a number of film and television projects but has never tackled the subject of pagans again until now. His new novel Cowboys for Christ posits the idea of two Texas missionaries, one an upcoming young female...

The Wicker Man has to be the absolute best horror movie I've ever seen. I get such an uneasy feeling every time I watch it. From what I've seen of the LaBute re-make, they've done away with things that were actually disturbing, and thrown in quick-and-easy scares.
Can't wait to read the Cowboys for Christ and see the resulting film.
