Episode Notes and Links
Three Things Every Slasher Movie Needs, tune in to find out...
“If you shoot the scenes, then, yes you must edit the scenes together...the movie is called The Editor, after all.”
Right off we talk about what it must feel like to hear the show for the first time as it progresses, 8th night of Summer Slash 3 horror movie marathon, there is a Back To The Future style slasher movie coming out called Time Cut, Rick and Morty parody Hellraiser by summoning the Cenobites for a guy’s night out, and Jena Malone is coming back in a body horror film called Swallowed.
The Collaboration Filmmakers Challenge is a two-week film challenge - you make a short film from start to finish in two weeks. And check this out - three winning filmmakers will get development deals with Hollywood Production companies. One deal is with Shout Factory who produces Mystery Science Theater 3000, and the other two are with Adi Shankar who produces Castlevania for Netflix in addition to movies like Dredd and The Grey. Wild right? Where else are you going to get the chance to get paid to develop a project with recognizable production companies and take it to market? Aside from the deal, filmmakers can win thousands of dollars in cash prizes and equipment as well.
What makes the CFC different from other festivals is the challenge was invented to reward creativity - not access to money or gear. All filmmakers need to work with another participant - so this is actually great - if you are an editor, camera operator, or actor - and are just looking to work on movies, sign up. If you are a filmmaker but need talent and crew, this is again an excellent opportunity to meet and network.
For all you binge-watchers when you sign-up use the promo code: Binge_Watchers for a discount on your entry.
Tonight’s movie is THE EDITOR. Rey Ciso, a one-handed film editor becomes the prime suspect for the violent murders of the lead actors of a film he has been editing.
The movie has 2 of 3 things that make great slasher movies. It has the gore and the sex, but not the interresting killer.
We talk about the rest of our Summer Slash run and make some horror movie recommendations like The Wrong Turn, Leprechaun IV, and Werewolves Within.
End music theme is Schoolyard Swing by Cast Of Characters
