Independent feature films rely heavily on artists both in-front of the camera and behind the camera to give immense passion, determination and long-hours often for little compensation or the hope that some compensation may come if the movie sells and performs well. In the end it is often a labor of love that exists purely for the love of the artform. David chats with fellow Kung Fu Ghost actor Eddie Lain and crewmember Larry Johnson about their experiences working on the film.
Season 9 is finally here with a special Kung Fu Ghost reunion as David sits down to chat with his co-star Rene Fernandez about working on the film, his acting history and so much more!
