Following Films Podcast: ARCADIAN and BLACKOUT Interviews (Jaeden Martell, Maxwell Jenkins, and Larry Fessenden)

 

Thank you for listening to the Following Films Podcast. Today I have two interviews. Up first I’m joined by Jaden Martell and Maxwell Jenkins to discuss their work on the new Nicholas Cage starring film ARCADIAN. The film is set in the near future, where normal life on Earth has been decimated. Paul and his two sons, Thomas and Joseph, have been living a half-life – tranquility by day and torment by night. Every night, after the sun sets, they face the unrelenting attacks of a mysterious and violent evil. One day, when Thomas doesn't return home before sundown, Paul must leave the safety of their fortified farm to find him. A nightmarish battle ensues that forces the family to execute a desperate plan to survive.

Then after the break, I’m joined by Larry Fessenden to discuss his latest film BLACKOUT. Writer-director Larry Fessenden has created some of the most original and memorable independent horror films of the last 25 years. His latest, BLACKOUT, ranks among his most chilling and thought-provoking works. In the film, when the sun goes down, Charley has convulsions while driving his car, he goes off the road and ends up in a ditch. Charley, it seems, is a werewolf. He attacks his rescuers and moves through the outskirts of town at night wreaking havoc. But the next day he can’t remember the things he’s done. Now the tight-knit town must rally to find out what is tearing it apart: mistrust, fear, or a vicious monster.

ARCADIAN is in theatres now and BLACKOUT is available on VOD.

2023 Director : Jackson Publick Starring : Doc Hammer, James Urbaniak, Michael Sinterniklaas, Chris McCulloch, Clancy Brown, and JK Simmons  The Venture Bros.: Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart is an absolute triumph that brilliantly continues the story of the beloved animated series. As a long-time fan, I couldn't be more thrilled with this new movie, which picks up right where season 7 finale left off. Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment has delivered a truly special piece of animation that had me from start to finish. While the plot for the film is about what you'd expect from a direct to home video feature based on an animated series, there is something in the way all the pieces come together that is utterly compelling, making it impossible to look away. The story is well-crafted and the return of an imposing evil from the past adds a layer of depth and intensity that fans will appreciate. The voice talents in The Venture Bros. have always been top-notch, and R
