All-Star Video

This week, Matt, Tom and John discuss the 1989 8mm tape gem, THINGS.  Directed by Andrew Jordan and starring Barry J. Gillis.

This week, I interview TERRORIVSION.  It was a short-lived local podcast about finding great treasures.  Only ten episodes long, it was still one of the more enjoyable film podcasts I've ever heard.  The memebers are now scattered across the country, and we came together to discuss how it all came together, the future, and Red Lobster.

This week, Matt and John discuss the shot on video film, VIDEO VIOLENCE.  The Gary P. Cohen film gets us going on violence in movies, the shot on video revolution, sweet keyboard music and more.

This week, I interview Peter Schilling, Jr.  Peter is the author THE END OF BASEBALL, a projectionist and programmer at the Trylon Microcinema, a life-long lover of film and the author of numerous blogs.  Peter and I talk about the Detroit Tigers, Star Wars, Citizen Kane, 16mm projection and more.

This week, Matt and John defend the 1988 Richard Pryor comedy, MOVING, which they believe has been unfairly maligned and ignored.

This week, I interview Nikki Weispfenning.  Nikki is the projectionist at the Trylon Microcinema in Minneapolis, MN.  Her experience working around and with film over the past twenty years has made her one of the most interesting and knowledgable people in our little Minneapolis community.  Her perfect presentation and painstaking attention to detail continues to make viewing films at the Trylon a pleasure.  Our conversation veers from North Dakota to a geek out on projection to movie theaters in general.

This week, I interview Matt Gamble.  Matt is a prolific blogger, podcaster and passionate lover of movies.  Our conversation veers from falling in love with movies and bowling to being a theater manager to texting during movies.  

This week, I interview Jim Brunzell.  Jim is the director of SOUND UNSEEN, he runs The Defenders series at the Trylon Microcinmea, writes for the Twin Cities Daily Planet and is all around awesome.  This is our conversation about his dad, Jumping Jim Brunzell, how he got into dance, the Oak Street Cinema and more.  

October is David A. Prior Month at All-Star Video.  We have been reviewing and talking about his movies all month in anticipation of the upcoming release of DEADLIEST PREY.  This week, we talk to the man himself.  

This week, I meet with Tom Reinert and we discuss David A. Prior's most recent film and sequel to the cult action film, Deadly Prey.
