Directed by the late Chuck Russell, Dream Warriors manages to dig in on some of the deeper and darker themes established by Wes Craven in the original while expanding the scope of the story outward and bringing some of the decade's best practical horror effects.

This past weekend we lost genre great Chuck Russell, who directed the best Nightmare On Elm Street sequel, one of the best horror remakes (The Blob), and introduced the world to Cameron Diaz in The Mask. Last year we had the great pleasure of interviewing him on this show, so in honor of the man and his legacy we're rerunning that chat this week.Most of the conversation revolves around his remake of schlockfest Witchboard and his early career collaboration with one Mr. Frank Darabont. He had a front row seat to Darabont's pursuit of Stephen King's books, including The Shawshank Redemption.Rest In Peace to Chuck Russell!

In 1996, Arnold Schwarzenegger teamed up with director Chuck Russell for Eraser, a gloriously over-the-top 90s action movie filled with railguns, alligators, witness protection conspiracies, and Arnold one-liners. And yet… despite being a box office success, Eraser rarely comes up when people discuss Arnold's best movies. It arrived right at the tail end of his run as the king of action cinema, just before audience tastes — and Arnold's career — started to shift. Guest Adam Hecht is here to discuss.____Please consider joining our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/wwibofficialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whywasntitbetterLetterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/wwibpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/wwib_officialX: https://x.com/WWIBpodcastSubscribe!

https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/madmike3/subscribeUna rubrica in cui esprimo la mia personalissima opinione su film che, pur non essendo necessariamente capolavori o film iconici, hanno lasciato qualcosa al pubblico.Per ricordare la recente dipartita di un grande sognatore che è sempre rimasto nei margini, ecco un film degli anni '80 che non si è mai spinto oltre la schiera degli estimatori ma che ha saputo dare voce a coloro che hanno sempre e letteralmente sognato di vivere tante avventure.E quindi ecco "Dreamscape"!

La muerte del director Chuck Russell invita a revisar la carrera de uno de los grandes artesanos del cine fantástico de los años 80 y 90. En este episodio de El Contador de Películas, Daniel Villalobos recorre la historia del realizador de Pesadilla en Elm Street 3: Los Guerreros del Sueño, La Mancha Voraz, La Máscara, Eraser y El Rey Escorpión, películas que marcaron a toda una generación.Desde sus primeras colaboraciones con Frank Darabont hasta el éxito que convirtió a Jim Carrey en una estrella mundial, el episodio explora cómo Russell revitalizó el cine de terror, la fantasía y la aventura, y por qué terminó alejándose del centro de Hollywood. También revisa su trabajo con Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dwayne Johnson, el auge de los efectos digitales y su inesperada apuesta final por la inteligencia artificial como herramienta para crear cine.  Lo mejor del cine está en Cooperativapodcast.cl

Regisseur Chuck Russell ist kürzlich verstorben. In seiner kurzen, aber eindrucksvollen Vita, hat er Filme erschaffen, die bis heute nachhallen: A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warrior, Eraser oder Die Maske. Wir sprechen über sein Schaffen und sein Leben und beleuchten einen Filmemacher, der jungen Talenten stets Chancen gab und am Ende vielleicht selbst zu oft übersehen wurde.

THE MOVIE CRYPT pays  tribute to filmmaker Chuck Russell (THE MASK, A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 3, THE BLOB, THE SCORPION KING, ERASER) who sadly passed away this week.

Ahead of the 30th anniversary of the blockbuster action thriller Eraser, Director Chuck Russell told Melissa and Austin all about the movie and what to expect from the 4K Ultra HD release!

Host Scott is joined by special returning guest Adam Thornton (Films That Time Forgot) to talk about the now semi-forgotten Arnie flick "Eraser."Over the course of the episode Scott and Adam discuss what makes this the last Classic Arnie Era film, why this was a hit at the time but seems to faded from memory now and debate whether "Eraser" had franchise potential. Plus, we get into how director Chuck Russell deals with the action in his first large scale action flick (his background being horror and comedy), theorise why Vanessa Williams didn't get more action roles and extol the virtues of James Caan as the villain.

A horror movie with a 4% Rotten Tomatoes score always raises the same question: is it secretly underrated, or is it a cautionary tale? We hit play on Bless the Child (2000) and quickly find ourselves in a swirl of chosen one mythology, satanic cult plotting, and a very serious attempt at a biblical supernatural thriller that rarely earns the weight it wants.We walk through the story of Cody, the girl everyone wants to control, and why the movie's pacing feels endless even at under two hours. Then we get into the real debate: what happens when a film stacks big cast names like Kim Basinger, Christina Ricci, Jimmy Smits, and Ian Holm, but the performances still feel flat and the tension never builds? We also dig into the horror tropes on display, the messy logic of faith-based end times movies, and the moments that pull you out completely, from early-2000s CGI demons to scenes that feel like they wandered in from a different cut of the film.Along the way, we call out what has aged the worst, including an outdated autism reference, and we compare Bless the Child to other supernatural horror and good-versus-evil films that handle similar material with more style and clarity. We end with our watchability scores, plus the few odd details that still stick, for better or worse.Follow us on Instagram @ScreamStreamPod, visit screamsandstreams.com for film info and episode resources, and if you laughed or argued along with us, rate, review, subscribe, and share the show with a fellow horror fan. Head to www.screamsandstreams.com for more information related to our episode.

Hosts STEPHEN SCARLATA (producer, Jodorowsky's Dune) and JOSH MILLER (writer, Sonic The Hedgehog, Violent Night) journey into dreamland to breakdown Wes Craven and Bruce Wagner's original draft of NIGHTMARE ON ELM ST 3, before Chuck Russell and Frank Darabont reworked the script.

Sarah and Raf are back, and they've got some questions: Who's really the king of the rumba beat? Can Sarah buy the set of the Coco Bongo, or at least the stairs? Is anyone going to take Milo outside?!?In case you haven't guessed, this episode is all about the fun, silly, and occasionally thrilling Jim Carrey and Cameron Diaz film "The Mask." Set in the grimy yet gorgeous Edge City, a city where methane emissions make for beautiful sunsets and a S.W.A.T standoff can turn into a musical number, this 1994 film is an “action/gangster/secret musical/romantic comedy” according to Raf and “very Busby Berkeley meets Gotham City” according to Sarah. It features Jim Carrey as the meek Stanley Ipkiss...until he turns into the wildly mugging Mask. It also introduces Cameron Diaz in a stunning, star-making role as Tina. And we can't forget Milo, Stanley's Jack Russell terrier who is truly the best boy.Grab your favorite nautical print pajamas and get ready to revisit the movie that, according to its own VHS cover, was "Fantastic fun!" -- and in this case, the marketing isn't wrong. (Also, please note that the hosts discuss the entire plot of the movie; so if you don't want it spoiled, go watch it before listening.)(TW: mention of sexual assault)

He breaks down practical effects, dream research, faith, simulation theory, and what it really means to create from both sides of the veil.He also discusses his early years breaking into the industry, performing stunts, and writing screenplays in 1980s Hollywood.

We're going a bit dark this week on BEHIND THE LENS thanks to writer/director JEREMY RUDD and his directorial feature debut with DIE'CED: RELOADED, and the fabulous veteran director CHUCK RUSSELL and his latest dive back into the darkness with WITCHBOARD. Let's kick things off with JEREMY RUDD and his feature debut, DIE'CED: RELOADED, which follows the story of Benny, an infamous serial killer who escapes a high-security asylum on Halloween night, turning 1980s/90s Seattle into a blood-soaked nightmare. Reborn behind a twisted scarecrow mask, he leaves a trail of carnage across the suburbs, as whispers of his gruesome past resurface, fueling panic in a city soaked in neon and fear. But Benny isn't just killing for pleasure – he's hunting someone. A young woman unknowingly tied to the darkest chapter of his madness becomes his fixation, and the closer he gets, the bloodier it gets. The result is a brutal, synth-drenched scarecrow slasher soaked in nostalgia, where Benny carves his place in horror history – one body at a time. Then we shift gears with the wonderful director, writer, and producer CHUCK RUSSELL. Resurrecting the '80's horror classic with a chilling new vision, WITCHBOARD takes place in present-day New Orleans, where a cursed artifact unleashes a vengeful witch, drawing a young couple into a deadly spiral of possession, temptation, and occult terror. Directed by Chuck Russell and co-written by Chuck and Greg McKay, WITCHBOARD stars Madison Iseman, Aaron Dominguez, Melanie Jarnson, Charlie Tahan, Antonia Desplat, and, one of my favorites, Jamie Campbell Bower. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Show Notes:In this episode, Aaron told me how he watched certain horror movies at far too young an age and why horror has always called to him from an acting perspective. Then we get into talking about Witchboard, including how he got the role, what it was like to work with director Chuck Russell, and how it was to work with a cat onset. Something spooky and unexpected happened during our conversation too and he has a light bulb moment where he realizes everything has come full circle for him.
