Macabre...ish Cults, Classics & Horrors

This is Part 3: (BTS is Behind The Scenes)

Carlos, Chris and I had the great pleasure of talking to Patrick Johnson, the director of 47 Hours To Live, She’s Crushed (Crushed) and Amber Heard’s first film SideFX.

This was such a good conversation and he starts from the beginning, the winding road to filmmaking. From an offer to make 50 bucks from a man in a van to being inspired to distribute by a guy known as Half Head Fred. Taking films to festivals and how that went. Directors who lost their mind, entire crew walk out during projects, crazy producer and over ambitious projects with no budget.

Plus what happened when Patrick finally got a good budget to make a feature film and the lessons he learned about culture and industry relationships. And why, for him, intent matters and why he’d rather offend you with his movies than get no response at all.

This story was quite a ride! He also has something new in mind in the works and we hope to talk to him again! If you are a low budget horror fan, check out his flicks...She’s Crushed, 47 Hours to Live, SideFX and (comedy) The Highschooler’s Guide to College Parties.

Note: Other movies that were mentioned was Excision, After Dark, Hereditary, Yummy, Uncut Gems

As always, support the arts and watch movies! Even if I say I don’t like it.

I watched a movie called 47 Hours To Live and considered it a one watch and said I didn’t care for it. The filmmaker, Patrick Johnson then commented on that post. Yep. (So what do you do when you embarrass yourself and tell a filmmaker you don’t care for his movie?)

Chris and Carlos also watched the film after I posted my synopsis and part of today’s episode is our discussion about that film. And we wondered if that filmmaker would come have a chat with us. Mr. Johnson also offered another cut of the film to watch as well and I took him up on that offer.

We also talk about how we rate movies, what our expectations are and what constitutes a good movie. These are all our personal opinions and taste. We’re just fans just like you.

Other horror movies we bring up other than 47 Hours To Live. Open 24 Hours, Splinter, Stay Alive and Thankskilling.

Back to the question...what do you do when you embarrass yourself on a post and the filmmaker responds? Well I invite him on my podcast!! And an invitation has been extended to Patrick Johnson and we shall see if joins us for a chat.

This is for anyone who might be up for a laugh and/or curious what the conversation is like when we are warming up to talk about horror. We talk about everything and anything and it’s all hilarious!

From our Kevin Smith, Sandler and Seagal plus fake hair spray paint, man lace fronts and the presence of what could be a shaving ghost which could also be me having audio hallucinations.

Then we take a hard left into the hilarity of alternative porn and how it can be more hilarious! Then continue to an inevitable pitstop, Taco Bell. And how talking about the physical and sometimes terrible impact of having it, puts Carlos in the mood for tacos!

And believe it or not, in the midst of all this, horror actually does come up. But in the mean time we just laugh!

Have a great day! Once again thank you for listening! You can find Carlos Ibarra on IG @jekyl669, Chris Thompson on IG @theauthor_ and me, Kimberly at macabreish.com and IG and Vero @macabre_ish. https://linktr.ee/macabre_ish

Name These Horror flicks!

Today we are trying to figure out some movie titles based on clues on two different posts on Instagram...Describe A Movie You’ve Been Struggling To Name, Maybe We Can Help..

So I figured out about half of them but was stumped on others, so I thought I’d bring the questions to Carlos and Chris to see if we could work it out.

And if anyone listening is struggling to find movie names, head to the website or IG listed below. Also if any of these clues sound familiar to you and you know the name, let us know and/or tag us on instagram.

This question will be asked ever so often and we will keep this topic going and hopefully get them all named. Plus we talk reasons why some movies may be, sadly, lost to history.
