Through the Black Hole

MICK GARRIS – Interview

Many directors have brought the terrifying works of Stephen King to the big screen and television. The Master of Horror on the written page, has had many films adapted from his work by great directors such as Stanley Kubrick, Brian De Palma, George A. Romero, Rob Reiner, and Frank Darabont, just to name a few. However, there is one director who has captured King’s vision very nicely and many times Mick Garris.

IVAN ZUCCON – Interview

Ivan Zuccon displays to a broad extent the current (and past) Italian silver screen: almost passed by in Italy but well esteemed abroad. It sounds unbelievable but his own words will confirm how it can be a director gets powerless to find a home distributor and has to put up with it, needing therefore to head onto a european (at first) and american (thereafter) market without even taking into account the possibility of looking around himself.

STEVEN GOLDMANN – Interview

Steven Goldmann

This interview underlines one of the most touched dilemmas: how is it possible that some works, proclaimed through all the underground, moved along thanks to the rumors done by fans, found out as cult-movies, can find no distributors in Italy? Steven Goldmann worked on a transposition from an american comic-books series (Trailer Park of Terror), a sort of Tales from the Crypt, redneck debased. Unfortunately this film is under the “untouchable” category in Italy so fit out with patience and try to see this in english language, it’s worth it. From the words of the director it’s possible to feel his energy: gags, jokes but also a serious cross section of the America where he works. Let Steven speak.

MIHAJLO JOVANOVIC – Interview

To tackle Mihajlo while sipping his cup of coffee and trying to grab him away from it, is surely not one of the best ways to approach him. Especially if the night before you saw the bed just by chance…
