  • Chucky

    I’m amazed that the Blonde host has been getting some really cool guests but Chucky takes the cake. When will the other shows also start having these kind of guests? Great to learn things I didn’t know about Brad Dourif and nice to see him so appreciated by someone of the younger generation.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Extra Features Interviews: Bonnie Rose and Finise Avery about their film Living With Grandma
Q: When you're writing something with four different people, that could not be an easy process. I think two would be hard, but now you have four. So how do all the voices work?
Avery says Louis sent voicemails describing what he wanted, a writer annotated his ideas, and another collaborator formatted them. Avery then shaped the material into a story and adapted it for a short film.

Q: So when I get a role, when I get a part, you know, I read it over and over and over, and everything on the page.
Rose rereads the script and draws on personal qualities and experiences she can identify with to make the character feel truthful.
Extra Features Interviews Spanky Dustin Ward about his film “Princess For A Day “
Q: Who did the animation?
Martian Studios, led by Tom Durham, created the animation. Ward says the studio gave the low-budget production a generous deal and developed the finished work from his rough previs.
Extra Features Interviews Spanky Dustin Ward about his film “Princess For A Day “
Q: So how long did it take you to write that?
Ward says he wrote fairly quickly, but it took two or three years to find funding and get the film made. His first drafts are long, so he also spends time cutting them down.
Extra Features Interview Brandon Rhiness about his film Gortesque 2
Q: Okay, I haven't seen Hot Box yet. Is that a horror too?
No, Hot Box is a stoner comedy, showing Brandon's range beyond horror and demonstrating his ability to work in different genres.
