• Ep 638: Sarah Nicklin

  Actress and filmmaker Sarah Nicklin (THE BLACK MASS, POPEYE THE SLAYER MAN, SPLATTER DISCO, EXHUMED) joins Adam and Joe in the ArieScope studio to discuss her career journey. From how her young fandom for HOME IMPROVEMENT’s Jonathan Taylor Thomas lead her to want to become an actress… to watching John Carpenter’s HALLOWEEN and William Friedkin’s THE EXORCIST as her first ever horror movies… to going to college at Emerson in Boston and launching her career in New England through whatever auditions she could find out about… to her discipline in always trying to better her craft despite having over 100 films and TV shows under her belt at this point in her career… to how she decompresses after finishing each role and more, Sarah’s path is a perfect example of how never giving up can lead to continuing to work, work, work! Also, Dr. Arwen provides “Hollywood Therapy” for a listener looking for life hacks to improve their imperfect process. See Sarah in V/H/S HALLOWEEN coming this October!

• Ep 635: Glenn Garland

  Film editor Glenn Garland (THE DEVIL’S REJECTS, HALLOWEEN 2007, IT: WELCOME TO DERRY, POKER FACE) joins Adam and Joe in the ArieScope studio to discuss his career journey. From growing up with parents who didn’t understand why he would possibly want to work in the entertainment industry… to finding personal peace and joy in the edit suite as opposed to enduring the chaos of being on-set… to why as an editor it can be easier to separate yourself from the overall production process and just focus on the story being told… to starting out working as a dialogue editor for the late Roger Corman on ultra low budget films (even though he didn’t know anything about cutting dialogue)… to why he has enduring affection for THE FANTASTIC FOUR (1994)… to making the transition from cutting on film to cutting digitally… to how he first wound up working with Rob Zombie on THE DEVIL’S REJECTS and the incredible working relationship they’ve had ever since… to stories from working on RZ’s HALLOWEEN (2007) and HALLOWEEN II (2009)… this is a fantastic conversation that brings you beyond the set and into the dark room where it all comes together.

• Ep 634: James DeMonaco

  Filmmaker James DeMonaco (THE PURGE franchise, THIS IS THE NIGHT) joins Adam and Joe to discuss his career journey and the making of his new feature THE HOME (in theaters now). From growing up in Staten Island with no viable connections to the film industry… to teaching himself how to write scripts armed with only a copy of Syd Field’s book SCREENPLAY… to briefly attending NYU film school where he made a friend with a means to securing some financing… to making his first independent film RED which lead to a student Academy Award… to how his script for JACK (co-written with Gary Nadeau) lead to an industry bidding war… to working with cinematic icon Francis Ford Coppola and the brilliant Robin Williams on the project… to writing films like THE NEGOTIATOR, the remake of ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13 and SKINWALKERS before getting the opportunity to direct his screenplay for LITTLE NEW YORK… to creating the worldwide blockbuster franchise THE PURGE and why he and his producing partner Sébastien K. Lemercier have continued to shaped the franchise through five (soon to be SIX) films… to how visiting family members in elder care facilities lead to the idea for THE HOME… to the casting of SNL alum Pete Davidson and the great John Glover in leading roles of the film… to what it was like shooting a film with a cast of elderly people during the tail end of COVID…to learning that every writer needs a “Mad Hungarian” and tons of other anecdotes he’s learned throughout his career… this honest conversation about the path of becoming a filmmaker is one that every artist can benefit from.
