For our sixty-seventh episode, we’re joined by film critic and commentary participant Michelle Kisner (The Movie Sleuth) for a discussion of the audio commentary for the now two-decade-old cult phenomenon “Shaun of the Dead” from writer/director Edgar Wright and writer/star Simon Pegg. Amongst the things discussed: why any future filmmakers using Queen’s “Don’t Stop Me Now” owe Wright royalties, subverting and encouraging zombie movie tropes, male scratching foley work, blood-related continuity errors, the ethics of directors revising their previous works for 4K, and so much more.
Ryan’s Recommendations: “Phase IV” (1974), “Halloween III: Season of the Witch” (1982), and “WNUF Halloween Special” (2013)
