  • Season 4, Episode 44: Interview with Director George Baron & Award-Winning Actress Danielle Bisutti from “The Blue Rose” (2023)

    I had the absolute pleasure of speaking to Director George Baron and the beautiful Danielle Bisutti about their roles in “The Blue Rose” and this being George’s directorial debut (and seeing how that he was able to strategize and complete this film), I am excited and looking forward to seeing it when it’s released on

    July 12th. Pre-order is now available for the movie on Apple Tv and on Amazon.

    Both described their characters very well and in the most intriguing way, these two were phenomenal in this interview. This happens to be one of my favorite

    interviews, these two are so down to earth and easy to talk to.

    David did admit that David Lynch is one of his biggest influences and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that – we all have our influences it’s just that I have hard time trying to figure out mine. Danielle on the other hand, has many influences and Madeline Kahn is one of them. It’s no wonder these two individuals are so very talented, and they deserve to be nominated for all of the awards in

    Hollywood.

    Danielle has upcoming projects to look out for: “Hollywood Heist” with an all-star cast and “Wake Me” – so keep an eye out for those two. Make sure you go to the theater and watch the release of this movie, unless you are afraid to leave your home then you can order it on Apple TV and Amazon.

  • Season 4, Episode 43: Interview with Chelsea Gilson (Karla Coleman) from “The Black Mass” (2023) [True Crime Episode]

    I had the absolute pleasure of speaking to Chelsea

    about her role in the film. She provides insight on how the movie was made in just 4 days in which I believe is a paramount achievement considering it was produced on shoe-string budget. For those that enjoy true crime (and movies based or inspired by true events) this movie will have you on the edge of your seat.

    Although in the movie, we don’t get to actually see

    the killer’s face that much in, the audience (and I) could grasp of what happened at the sorority house in Florida. The crimes and victims will forever be engrained in our memories as it still remains a part of American history. Fortunately the killer faced his punishment of the electric chair and justice was served. Unfortunately, those that did survive will have to live with that night for as long as they live.

    Overall, “The Black Mass” is an outstanding movie and

    it has to be one of the best inspirational true crime movies that I have watched in a very long time. Me being a true crime junkie, the actors performed exceptionally well in their factual characters exceeding my expectations.

  • Season 4, Episode 42: Interview with Award-Winning Actress Akasha Villalobos (Ally Larkin” from “Trip” (2022)

    I had the absolute pleasure of speaking to Akasha Villalobos who portrays Ally in a mind-bending movie about reconnecting with the dead. As I cannot describe this movie, you’re going to have to see it for yourself

    because Akasha’s performance is extremely phenomenal. With her talent, she is naturally convincing as a mother of a teenager who is profiling the thoughts of suicide.

    The psych-juice (is what I dubbed the special tea as) is a

    doorway to the paranormal and undead. Although you can see that Ally (played bay Akasha) is reluctant to drink the tea, she does ignore the ramifications by jumping in feet first without hesitation. There are other ways to communicate with the dead in the afterlife, but drinking tea… Who knows what will happen.

    All around great interview. Getting to know Akasha on a personal level makes me now realize what she is an award-winning actress. She also deserves an award for this role because she had me convinced.

    In the real world, no one takes suicide lightly. This may be

    a tough movie for some to watch because of the idealization of suicide in the script and roleplay. However, the message brought from the director to the audience is saying that suicide is not okay and that you should seek help immediately.

    If you or someone you know is having suicidal thoughts,

    please call the National Suicide Hotline at 1-800-273 8255 or dial 988 or text “BRAVE” to the Crisis Text Line at 741741. Seek help immediately; suicide is a serious subject and should be dealt with accordingly by professionals.

  • Season 4, Episode 41: Interview with Award-Winning Actor Ry Barrett (Johnny) from “In a Violent Nature” (2024)

    Ry Barrett, being dubbed a new horror icon in comparison to Jason Voorhees in this new slasher film that takes place in the woods of Northern Ontario. Obviously, Ry Barrett was chosen as the right actor for the role; thanks to Chris Nash, the director of the film, the kills are creative and gory enough to make any squeamish fan not want to watch the movie. However, I on the other hand will most definitely enjoy this movie.

    With that being said, I would like to hear from the audience: can Johnny be compared to Jason Voorhees in this movie. And can he be the next horror icon?

    My gut and (somewhat expertise) is telling me that he is. He may not be the new Jason Voorhees, but his status has definitely been elevated to the top of my list.

    Catch “In a Violent Nature” in theaters now.

  • Season 4, Episode 40: Interview with Frank Collison (Victor) from M. Night Shyamalan’s “The Village” (2004)

    Have you ever wondered why M. Night Shyamalan directs the way he does? Perhaps Frank Collison can answer your questions in this interview. There is that and much more about the underrated gem, “The Village” which was filmed in Pennsylvania. I for one would love to visit the still-standing set once I can confirm it’s location.

    We also discussed and wondered why M. Night Shyamalan likes to use the color red in his movies. Not only it is quite obvious in “The Village” but it’s also used quite frequently in “The Sixth Sense” with Bruce Willis. If anyone could elaborate on that, please let me and Frank know.

    M. Night Shyamalan is notorious for his unique directing

    style for his movies, and I believe that’s what sets him apart from other horror directors. The man is essentially a genius and I do thoroughly enjoy his films. If you like or dislike the movie, please let me know why and what could
    have been done differently.

  • Season 4, Episode 39: Interview with Erin Marie Hogan (Natasha) from “Hold Your Breath” (2012)

    Erin Marie Hogan is such a wonderful and talented actress! Especially in this movie where she attempts to escape the spirit of a serial killer from the past. However,

    with the supernatural superstitions, that was a bit of a challenge for the traveling group of friends.

    I can say that this movie definitely had my attention the entire time and the kills are definitely original and unique. I am not going to spoil for you, you are going to have to watch the movie yourselves.

    Follow Erin on TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram and help her land an audition for a movie!

  • Season 4, Episode 38: Interview with Madi Bready (Kenzi) from “Mind Body Spirit” (2024)

    Madi Bready, the Yoga instructor who we all love and hate in the movie… It was nice talking to her about her role as ‘Kenzi’ and her on screen chemistry with Sarah who plays ‘Anya’ in this wonderful found-footage movie. I don’t think that I can emphasize enough how great this movie is, I watched it a few days ago and I am still trying to wrap my head around it.

    If you haven’t seen this movie, please do so. I highly recommend it if you are into found footage and possessions. The acting is phenomenal between the two

    talented actresses who steal the screen, Sarah and Madi, who rightfully deserve awards for their roles. The movie is intense; too intense to the point where I couldn’t take my eyes off the television.

    Mind Body Spirit is now available to watch on Vudu or Apple TV.

  • Season 4, Episode 37: Interview with Sarah J. Bartholomew (Anya) from “Mind Body Spirit” (2024)

    Everyone, if you have not seen this movie yet, I highly suggest that you do. It’s a mix of my two favorite sub-genres: possession and found footage. Throughout the entire film, I could not look away from the screen because I wanted to know what was going to happen next. I am really glad that someone mentioned this movie to me,

    and it is now one of my favorites.

    Sarah delivers well in this movie; she portrays Anya, a social media influencer who discovers her grandmother’s secrets and attempts to use her grandmother’s books

    to become a better yoga instructor/influencer. Unbeknownst to Anya, she didn’t realize that she was slowly transforming into something or someone else.

    Overall, great movie and I have to hand it to the writers and directors. This film is definitely on the top tier and will remain forever a gem in the found footage category.

  • Season 4, Episode 36: Interview with Peter Dobson (Ray Lynskey) from “The Frighteners” (1996)

    I had the opportunity to sit down with Peter Dobson, New Jersey native, as he peels back the layers and breaks everything down about the movie. Consisting of how the movie was made, where it was filmed, and how fun it was to work alongside the legendary R/ Lee Ermey. What is there to know about this movie? 

    Essentially, the movie is fun to watch, the non-stop action entertaining, and the actors performed exceptionally well. To this day, The Frighteners is still one of my favorites as it continues to move up my list of my Top 25.

    If you have not seen this movie, sit your butt down in front of the television now and watch it! I promise that you will not be disappointed. Each actor delivers their character with promise and surmise as I am thoroughly impressed, not only with the actors but with the dialogue and the movie itself.

    If you are looking for laughs and a little bit of scare, look no further! The Frighteners is the movie you are going to want to watch tonight.

  • Season 4, Episode 35: Interview with Bill Oberst Jr (Tony Commando) from Rob Zombie’s “3 From Hell” (2019)

    Bill Oberst, Jr. – what a fascinating and talented individual! I can talk to this guy about anything, ranging from “what if” scenarios to Rob Zombie. Bill has a wonderful personality, and I can see why he has been in so many movies, he’s a very likable person.

    As I sit here and attempt to recall what we talked about, I may catch some heath regarding my comments about Hitler. At this point, I am not worried. I said what I said, and I do not take anything back; you have to hate the ideology, not the person.

    Enough of that… Back to the talented Bill Oberst, Jr. He certainly had a lot to say about his career and how it all started for him. We were both raised in the same generation, we both know what it’s like to have been raised… No offense to the newer generation out there, Bill and I were brought up an entirely different direction, we both see the world for what it really is.

    His role as Tony Commando is undoubtedly an intriguing

    role. Acting alongside the major talent you see in Hollywood today has me convinced that Rob Zombie can have just about anyone he wants in his films. If you have not seen “3 From Hell” – I highly suggest that you do. You can also support Bill on his Instagram page by following him and seeing what he’s up to.
