Go Plug Your Fantasia Film – Black Fawn Films

Posted In: Fantasia, Go Plug Yourself, Montreal, Movies, Podcast, Podcasting

The Canadian crew behind a bunch of fan-favorite low-budget horror films came to have a drink with Walter and I and it was pretty damn fun. Unfortunately we had to play a game of “pass the mic” so apologies for some of the sound quality issues as each of the guys jump in. If you’re not familiar with Black Fawn Films you should check out their official website, they’re the crew behind Fantasia International Film Festival movies like Bite, The Drownsman and Antisocial and this year’s Bed of the Dead. Enjoy the show!gpys-fantasia-2

9to5 Does Fantasia: Let Me Make You a Martyr and Man Underground

by on July 25, 2016 at 7:38 am
Posted In: Fantasia, Homepage, Montreal, Podcasting

We keep it rolling with our thoughts on Let Me Make You A Martyr and Man Underground. Two very different films (and what else is Fantasia International Film Festival if not a collection of very different films), one dealing with friendship and whether or not there are aliens and the other a dark tale of revenge.FantasiaPod5

GPYS Fantasia: Let Me Make You a Martyr Part 2 (Niko Nicotera, Sam Quartin and Gore Abrams)

by on July 23, 2016 at 3:17 pm
Posted In: Fantasia, Homepage, Montreal, Podcasting

The Fantasia International Film Festival marks the World Premiere of the first feature film from the creative duo of John Swab and Corey Asraf. A slightly dreamlike recounting of the day Drew Glass (Niko Nicotera) returns to his hometown to seek vengeance on his drug dealing father. Along the way reconnecting with the deteriorating figures of his past, some redeemable and others damned to condemnation. Oh, and a hitman named Pope (Marilyn Manson) wants to kill him.

I was lucky enough to sit down the with the stars of the film Niko Nicotera, Sam Quartin and Gore Abrams. They talk about finding their characters, what it was like working with John and Corey and also Sam and Gore’s next project “Living the Gimmick: The Great American Unwashed” which is about, get this, wrestling. Sorry Walter.

Also be sure to check out Part 1 of our “Let Me Make You A Martyr” podcast, where I talk with John Swab and Corey Asraf HERE.gpys-fanasia-martyr2

by on July 23, 2016 at 2:30 pm
Posted In: Fantasia, Homepage, Montreal, Movies, Podcasting

Jon and I saw two very, very different films and we finally get around to talking about them on the show! I watched “Hunt for the Wilderpeople” and Jon saw “The Lure” and these two movies could not be more different. Listen now! Oh, and I cannot apologize enough for how bad I butcher Taika Waititi’s name again and again.

Posted In: Fantasia, Go Plug Yourself, Montreal, Movies, Podcasting

If ever there was a movie worthy of screening at midnight it would be a film about a murderous bed preying on the lives of the guilty crossed with a police procedural. Former Montrealer Jeff Maher brought his film “Bed of the Dead” to Fantasia this year and came on the show to talk about his film, which horror movies he loved growing up and how important a few drinks can be when it comes to dreaming up ideas for films. “Bed of the Dead” has another screening at this year’s Fantasia International Film Festival August 1st, tickets HERE.gpys-fanasia-1

9to5 Does Fantasia: The Love Witch

Posted In: Fantasia, Homepage, Montreal, Movies, Podcasting

We watched the wonderful homage to the technicolor genre films of the 60s and 70s, Anna Biller’s “The Love Witch” and then we talked about it. Since this movie was all about women, starring a woman and made by a woman, we brought in Sarah to bring a women’s insight in. Listen now to find out our thoughts on “The Love Witch”!FantasiaPod2
