Podcast appearances and mentions of aharon keshales

Benvenuti nella raccolta in formato Podcast delle puntate di #CloseUp, a cura di Matteo Righi, aka Houssy. #CloseUp è la rubrica di recensioni cinematografiche in onda su Radio Italia Anni 60 Emilia-Romagna.

PUBLIC VERSION. Acclaimed filmmaker Aharon Keshales (RABIES, BIG BAD WOLVES) began his career as a teacher and critic of film before paring up with his former co-directing partner Navot Papushado (GUNPOWDER MILKSHAKE) to create some of the most provocative cinema in the last few years, including the first horror film out of Israel! Aharon discusses what it was like directing solo for the first time with his new film SOUTH OF HEAVEN (starring Jason Sudekis, Evangeline Lily & Shea Whigham and currently available on VOD) and reveals what it was like working as the main director for his first english language feature, which also happened to finish shooting right before the pandemic and edited during it.  Aharon and the boys also discuss how they first met in FrightFest while he was premiering RABIES, how Aharon pivoted from hardcore horror to more dark comedy in BIG BAD WOLVES (which was Quentin Tarantino's favorite film of 2013) and how he strove not to be boxed into any particular genre. Keshales also discusses how SOUTH OF HEAVEN was written as a love letter to his wife, the art of the dynamic one-take shot, how he presents violence in his films, a fantastic alt-take on DIE HARD, and how filmmakers can present villains with sensitive sides and heroes with darker shades of grey. 

In this bonus episode, Brian sits down with director Aharon Keshales to talk about his movie South of Heaven, filmmaking, and deconstructing genres. You don’t want to miss this one.

Welcome the newest episode of Dark Discussions, your place for the discussion of horror film, fiction, and all that’s fantastic. Back in 2010, a little known foreign film appeared entitled in its native language Kalevet brought some notoriety to the director/writer combo Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado. At first it was thought that maybe some of the interest was that it was the first "horror" film from Israel. But the film known as Rabies in English and released wide to the world in 2012 actually was a quirky and well made neo-grindhouse horror film that had a lot to say (see our own discussion on the film in episode 116 of Dark Discussions). In 2013, when their follow up Big Bad Wolves hit the festival circuits, director/screenwriter Quentin Tarantino stated he thought it was the best film of the year. Whether that's an overstatement, or whether it was the fact some say it was a homage to his own films, Big Bad Wolves most certainly is a dark and some ways comic thriller that immediately landed on everyone's radar. When a school teacher is suspected to be a serial murderer of children, a group of individuals including a police man as well as the father of a murder victim, decide to take justice in their own hands. The film seems to be both a standard thriller and even a disciple of the Tarantino films, yet in all honesty it has some interesting topics to say about people and policy that the creators of the film are not too shy to present. Dark Discussions discusses the film, some of the topics it brings up, as well as some quirky and less obvious things the movie has to say including mobile phone ring tones and little dog people. Get ready for a discussion that leaves co-host Eric a bit frazzled as controversy over substance makes him flabbergasted.

Welcome the newest episode of Dark Discussions, your place for the discussion of horror film, fiction, and all that’s fantastic. The Israeli writer/director team Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado are making waves on the festival circuits right now with their new film Big Bad Wolves, a violent thriller, that Quentin Tarantino has said is one of the best films he's seen this year. However, in 2010, their film entitled Rabies (also known as Kalevet) surprised many folks internationally with its dark and yet odd wit. Some called it a slasher film, others called it a film of suspicion, fear, and obsession, while others called it maybe even a serial killer film. Yet one term that seems to keep popping up is a throwback to pulp and grindhouse cinema. When a brother and sister leave home for questionable reasons, a serial killer captures the girl while out in a fox nature preserve. Suddenly chain events happen that draw in a college co-ed tennis team, the park ranger and both his dog and girlfriend, and a pair of police officers who come to investigate when the dispatcher receives a call from one of the tennis players. The film, Rabies, released in the United States in 2012, was named as one of co-host Mike's best horror films of last year. With its extreme violence, fascinating directing, and dark yet witty screenplay, the film is a must see by both horror fans and grindhouse fans that like something different and original. Dark Discussions discusses the film and why you should check it out. As always we welcome your comments: darkdiscussions@aol.com (written email or attached mp3 files) WWW.DARKDISCUSSIONS.COM
