What did Joe read last?

Derek Haugen one of the creators of Good Cops web series and the movie I had a blood Good Time at House Harker drops in to talk about his movies and film making in general.

This episode was uploaded out of order.. due to my lack of foresight.

About "Good Cops"

Three "good" cops try to nab a notorious "perp" known as "The Nightflasher." In the process, one of the cops (Sledge) is mortally wounded (or so the three cops think). Without Sledge's knowledge or consent, a plan is hatched by the other two cops, (Nicky and Perkins) to murder him while on the job so that his family can cash the police life insurance policy. The series ends with a hilarious twist and absolute proof that these three idiots are nothing, if not Good Cops.

About "I Had a Bloody Good Time at House Harker"

It's been generations since the Harkers' great-great-grandfather killed Count Dracula. Now the Harker brothers and their best friend Ned are a town joke - until a real vampire turns up.
