Join your hosts Austin and Cory as they dive into The Mihmiverse! Way back in episode 45, the boys reviewed a movie on one of their creature feature episodes called Weresquito: Nazi Hunter, which led to the discovery of The Mihmiverse. The day is finally here where they get the honor of talking to the creator of it all, Christopher R. Mihm! The boys start off with a quick intro to the episode to let everyone know who Chris is and what he does. After a brief conversation, they get Chris on the phone and dive in The Mihmiverse. This episode is loaded with fun facts, great stories and plenty of off the rail moments. Sit back, relax and enjoy the conversation! Stay Spooky!
HELLO LITTLE PIGGIES!!! Welcome to my podcast! We have such wonderful surprises in store for you today. I can't wait to show you! Christopher R. Mihm, founder of the "Mihmiverse", is a professional monster movie maker and self-described creator of "new old good bad movies!" He has made a movie each year like clock work--going back to 2006--in the tradition of classic "B" horror monster movies of the 50's and 60's. This modern-day Roger Corman has gifted us amazing titles like The Monster of Phantom Lake, Cave Women on Mars, and today's topic, Weresquito: Nazi Hunter. Christopher is a skilled filmmaker with a successful "crowdfunding" model consisting of pre-selling copies of his films to contributors, who receive credit and a copy of the finished product. In addition, he does his own physical distribution and produces spectacular looking blu rays and DVDs with attractive cover art, nicely authored menus, and special features. Through his e-commerce site, he'll even autograph your copy for free! Visit SaintEuphoria.com (http://sainteuphoria.com/index.html) to buy any of his 16 existing movies, or contribute to the two he has in development right now! Also, as a special contest I am running for listeners of the podcast, send me a screenshot showing that you signed up for his FREE monthly newsletter and I'll put you in a drawing to win a free blu ray or DVD from my collection!

An evil space Queen has set her sights on the planet Earth. Her nefarious plans to take over the world are already in motion. Only the bravery of one young boy can save the Earth and free the sinister Queen's slaves. Can he do it? Can Danny Johnson Save the World?! The 10th entry into the Mihmiverse, a film universe in and of itself created by writer and director Christopher R. Mihm, fits nicely after the events of one of the previous films, The Giant Spider, where we actually first meet, albeit briefly, the young Danny Johnson. The Holidays are upon the Johnson household and two young children beg their slumbering grandpa Dan to tell them a story to pass the time till dinner. Grandpa, after some coaxing, tells of the time he, his siblings and their friends, saved the world from alien invaders! The story unfolds and of course Danny is triumphant, but seeing the events and watching Mihm expertly tell an original story while paying homage to the films he so obviously loves, is a tremendous treat! References to the films of the 50's, which is the style Mihm emulates in all his movies, lovingly find their home here, and a line or two from the slightly more recent Ghostbusters finds their way into the film as well. As with many small budget independent movies, a director often has to rely on friends and family for the many parts as well as reach out to what can be a small pool of local actors. Making it even more difficult with "Danny Johnson Saves the World" the cast is, with only the fewest of exceptions, children! Pulling in Mihmiverse mainstays like James Norgard and Michael Kaiser for the few roles that needed full size people, Mihm cast his own son, Elliott, for the role of Danny Johnson. Being a good parent he also found homes for rest of the family too! Smart move dad! It's always dangerous casting kids in kids roles. (Why do you think most movies and TV shows star 20 something high school students?) Mihm gets pretty lucky. Elliott really appears to put in a ton of effort and it shows. The rest of the kids, whether it was planned or it worked itself out in production, are never given more than they can handle and what they are given they handle incredibly well. Pulling out all the stops for this one, Mihm not only casts children, he throws in puppets created by Stephanie Mihm (including an adorable little "Steve"), and even a few stop motion animated creatures from animator Norman Yeend! Oh, and no Mihm film would be complete without a monster or robot! Here, Mitch Gonzales's designed mechanized monstrosity may be one of the best Mihmiverse creations yet! I've not always been fair to all the Mihmiverse films. I watched the first movie, Monster of Phantom Lake and absolutely loved it! I quickly bought the others in the collection, which at the time went up to Attack of the Moon Zombies, and I found myself a little disappointed with them . I wanted more of what I loved about "Phantom Lake". To me they others were just missing "something". It wasn't until I watched House of Ghosts that I realized I may be the one watching them wrong. I was watching expecting the writer and director to try and duplicate everything about the first one, and that blinded me to the fact that each film was an experiment from a film maker that was not only exploring the craft of movie-making, but exploring his own universe. Each movie, while firmly planted in the Mihmiverse, was it's own "thing". Each paying homage to different films and film makers. Each with their own feel and look. I still have my favorites, but I can no longer say that there are any that I dislike. On that note, I loved Danny Johnson Saves the World. This is a movie for kids of all kinds and ages. Whether you grew up with the 50's films or just discovered them thanks to late night re-runs or dear old dad, and even if you never bothered to watch any of them before, this would make a great icebreaker!
