I've been sitting on this interview for a while now, and rather than have you guys continue to wait for the transcription I decided to release the complete and unaltered audio from my encounter with Thomas Hodge. So, who is this Thomas Hodge? He's a film poster designer unlike any other creating unique imagery that helps sells films and gains them invaluable coverage.

It's been a good while since I've been intimidated by someone that I've had the opportunity to interview, and while this conversation has it's fair share of awkward moments, I decided to upload it unaltered due to the broad amount of valuable information. While we do touch on Bobcat Goldthwait's latest feature, which Crimmins is the focus of, Barry also gives some sound advice for newcomers to the comedy scene and shares his thoughts on a career in politics. I've been a fan of Bobcat Goldthwait for a while now, and while I only knew little of Crimmins prior to the film, I am pleased to have had the opportunity to speak to the man who has much to say about a lot.

Call him The Last Cowboy. In many ways, the 1980s and early 90s were a sort of last frontier for independent horror film-making. In the internet age, where everyone has a social media presence, Kickstarter can fund a movie overnight, and careers live and die by tweets, it’s difficult to pine for an era when esotericism and ephemera were the name of the game.

I've seen a lot of films this year, and one of the few that hit me like a ton of bricks was The Finals Girls. I can honestly say that not a week goes by that I can't recommend this gem of a film. It's fun, different and just an overall blast.

I am pleased to report that this interview is just as much entertaining as it is informative. Bennett Jones is a force to be reckoned with, and when I saw his feature, I Am a Knife with Legs, all I wanted to do was watch it again and again. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this feature.

A few weeks back I got a flat tire on my way home from an event. Knowing it'd take a good amount of time to get my hot rod back in shape, I grabbed my headphones and headed for the shop. I typically don't look forward to a wasted day, but it had been a while since I had some actual time to kill.

It’s 2:00 on a Thursday afternoon and I’m sitting on a wrought-iron bench next to a wine bar, waiting to talk to the Soska Sisters. Unfortunately, it’s a Thursday afternoon in Texas, and it’s August, which means that I might as well be sitting on a wrought iron bench on the outskirts of Hell. The summer has been famously unkind to the Lone Star State this year: Temperatures have regularly been breaking the triple-digits, with and without the heat-index, and but for the miraculous inventions of air conditioning, vodka, and beer, I might not still be around to write this article.

The entertainment industry will always be quite the enigma to me. Every year countless youth give up the warmth of their parents' home in hopes to one day occupy that billboard you see everyday on the way to shitty job. There's always those special few though, that somehow happen to be in the right place at the right time.
