IFFBoston 2011 – Ep. #4 – Our interview with Director Jim Mickle (‘Stake Land’)

Director, and vampire victim, Jim Mickle in 'Stake Land.'

Joining us on the podcast is Jim Mickle, director of the apocalyptic vampire flick Stake Land – which has its New England premiere tonight at midnight at the Somerville Theater, as part of the Independent Film Festival Boston.

In this 25-minute interview, we discuss the making of Stake Land. And, most importantly, how Stake Land isn’t anything like Twilight or True Blood. Raw, rabid, gutsy action is good.

#45 – RED, CONVICTION and YOU WILL MEET A TALL DARK STRANGER

(L to r) Bruce Willis, John Malkovich and Hellen Mirren in the action-comedy 'RED.'

Does Woody Allen still have something to say? Does Juliette Lewis have herself an Oscar-worthy performance? Does Bruce Willis go too far with self-parody?

These profound and important questions we ponder in our brand new audio oddity, the ingeniously titled Episode #45.

RED, Conviction and You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger are our topics of delight and distress.

And for our home video picks of the week, I say Ken Burn’s The 10th Inning, Neil Jordan’s Ondine, and NBC’s Modern Family: Season One are worth your time. Then John speaks kindly of Suck, the indie comedy vampire flick featuring indie band vampires. Key words: indie and vampire.
