THIS WEEK'S SHOW:  Reality and fantasy.

A closeted undercover cop, assigned to arrest men cruising in shopping mall bathrooms, grapples with messy, conflicted feelings when he falls in love with a married man he's assigned to entrap. PLAINCLOTHES is an intense, deeply atmospheric drama that explores the grey zones of authority, identity and the cost of living a secret life. We sit down with its writer/ director Carmen Emmi.  

From 2021: In the meditative supernatural drama NINE DAYS, a mysterious man interviews five unborn souls to determine which one can be given life on Earth. But one free-spirited candidate causes him to face his own existential challenge by looking within. We connect with writer/director Edson Oda for a hardly-remote conversation.

In his book SHOCK VALUE: HOW A FEW ECCENTRIC OUTSIDERS GAVE US NIGHTMARES, CONQUERED HOLLYWOOD, AND INVENTED MODERN HORROR, author Jason Zinoman focuses on the influence of a handful of directors (Wes Craven, John Carpenter, Tobe Hooper, etc.) whose groundbreaking efforts created a wildly-successful industry.  

From 2012:  MACHINE GUN PREACHER tells the hardcore and inspirational true story of Sam Childers, a former drug-dealing criminal who undergoes an astonishing transformation and finds his unexpected calling as the savior of hundreds of children in war-torn Sudan. hard-hitting and moving story of violence, redemption and the lengths to which a person will go in combatting an almost-unthinkable evil.

THIS WEEK'S SHOW:  Drama, fantasy, horror and songs! What more could you need?

Molina, a gay hairdresser in 1983 is serving time in an Argentine prison for alleged indecency when he is joined with Valentin, a political prisoner, and the two form an unlikely bond punctuated with Molina's imaginary movies starring a classic screen actress.

KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN was a 1985 drama that became a Broadway musical, which is now a film again. Director Bill Condon (GODS AND MONSTERS, CHICAGO) and lead actor Tonatiuh sit down with us to discuss their haunting, sensual and deeply human story that blurs the line between fantasy and reality.

From 2003:  Five youths pick up a traumatized hitchhiker in the Texas backwoods and when she suddenly shoots herself, the group goes in search of help. Unfortunately, the remote house they discover is filled with a family of inbred psychopaths and in short order, they are pursued by a relentless chainsaw-wielding cannibal. Sound familiar? Of course it does! THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE (2003) is considered one of the quality horror remakes, and we open the scary archives to revisit our chat with German director Marcus Nispel on his feature debut.
