Podcasts about New World Pictures

For our second episode in the "Corman Graduates: Jack Hill" series, we talk with director, writer and cinematography, Elle Schneider (THE FOOD THAT BUILT AMERICA, PLEDGE NIGHT: AN INTERVIEW WITH ROGER CORMAN, BLISS BLUE, THAT GUY DICK MILLER), about Jack Hill's MONDO KEYHOLE and PIT STOP.  In addition to being friends with Dick Miller and interviewing Jack Hill and Roger Corman on multiple occasions, she is a huge fan of PIT STOP.  She brings an technical perspective on both of the films that you won't find anywhere else. First, we talk about MONDO KEYHOLE.  We discuss the history and legal challenges with making "Nudie Cuties" and "Roughies" films during the 1960s and how that impacted the distribution of MONDO KEYHOLE.  We talk about how Jack Hill got involved with movie, the unique approach he took to casting and filming the movie and the fact that it had to play in adult theaters upon it's initial release. Next, we dive into fan favorite, PIT STOP - one of Jack Hill's most impressive films.  We talk about the struggle the movie faced trying to get an audience in an era when black and white films were going out of vogue in the drive-in circuit.  We share mutual appreciation for Sid Haig's emotional performance - one that is unique to his filmography.  Finally, we discuss the filming approach by cinematographer, Austin McKinney and the unfortunate rift with Jack Hill.  We even talk a tiny bit about Sorceress. Elle shares stories about Roger Corman including his ambitions to be a studio director and the decision to step away to start New World Pictures. We also spend a little time talking about serial killers, the fallout between Jack Hill and Austin McKinney, and movies with the best scenes featuring Dune Buggies.  Why Dune Buggies?  Because Dune Buggies are awesome. We want to generously thank Elle for being on the podcast and sharing her perspectives on these films.  You can check out her website at http://elleschneider.com and look for her next documentary about educational films.  Maybe she'll cover For Safety's Sake: In the Neighborhood?  Probably not.

#VAMPril 2: Double Suck continues as we explore the dark and mysterious graveyard of vampire films produced by New World Pictures.  This week, we are joined by the always hilarious Tommy Bechtold as we discuss 1989's BEVERLY HILLS VAMP starring Eddie Deezen (WAR GAMES), Britt Ekland (MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN) and Tim Conway Jr. (KFI, AM 640).  Imagine, if. you will, a film that mixes the comedy/action of BEVERLY HILLS COP with the artistic allure of Grace Jones in VAMP.  Keep imagining because this movie doesn't come close.  Directed by genre workhorse Fred Olen Ray (a man who seemingly directed every VHS tape your parents warned you about), this cinematic oddity follows a group of hapless Midwestern dudes who come to Los Angeles to break into Hollywood and stumble into a brothel full of vampires—because of course they do.  Hilarity ensues as they try and find their way out of a vampire's spell and into a movie that would, today, be shot in Bulgaria over Los Angeles. We attempt to make sense of this movie as the only available copies are missing a few key ingredients including 1) foul language, 2) nudity and 3) ambient audio.  What do we mean by "ambient audio"?  It's the little things we take for granted when we watch a movie.  Things like footsteps, car noises, or the sound of a door opening or closing.  Ambient noises is just scratching the surface.  BEVERLY HILLS VAMP is filled with wild choices, wilder characters and abnormally horny dudes.  If there is such a thing.  For all the shows in Someone's Favorite Productions Podcast Network, head here:  https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/ 

For the fifth year in a row, the New World Pictures Podcast celebrates the work of director/producer Roger Corman by watching his past work and sharing what we loved and what we hated.   As you might recall from our first Roger Corman Birthday Celebration, we all planned to watch the same movie but one of us (Marc) didn't read the email and watched an entirely different movie.  This year, we decided to try something different.  Ryan, Erica and Marc each watched a movie directed by Roger Corman in secrecy.  Would each of us watch the same movie or would we each go in different directions?  We won't spoil the fun.  What we will tell you is this special episode involves a New World Pictures Podcast first.  You have to listen to find out.   As always, we talk about the history of Roger's pre-New World Pictures Podcast catalog and the unique circumstances that surrounded the production of each film.  We also talk about Marc's exhausting podcast schedule including "The Semanticast" and "Geocast".  We also talk about the events that led up to Roger starting New World Pictures.   Happy Birthday, Roger! Thank you for you do and all you have done!  We wouldn't have a podcast without you.

We close out #PrisonMarch 2: Second Offense with an interview with someone who there at New World from the very beginning: editor Barbara Pokras! After graduating from USC (where she went to school with Dan O'Bannon with whom she would work on RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD), Barbara found her way to Roger Corman's newly-formed New World Pictures, where she went to work dubbing voices and assisting director Stephanie Rothman on New World's first ever movie, THE STUDENT NURSES. From there, Barbara worked on a variety of movies Roger shot in the Phillipines, like NIGHT OF THE COBRA WOMAN, THE HOT BOX, and THE BIG BUST-OUT! We discuss what it was like to work on those movies, how Barbara worked her way up to joining the Editor's Union and landing a job at Cop Rock, the short-lived police procedural musical, and why it was her favorite job. We also discuss I ESCAPED FROM DEVIL'S ISLAND, TOO HOT TO HANDLE, and why Wonder Woman was not her favorite project to work on. We could not have been more thrilled to talk with Barbara Pokras, one of Corman's original film school graduates, and we know you'll love our discussion as much as we did! And when you're done, don't forget to pick up her book, Feeding Mrs. Moskowitz, here.

It is the stuff of legends!  Dolph Lundgren as Frank Castle, the Punisher, in 1989's The Punisher.  Nick, Cuz, and the Gorehound sit down to take a look at this early Marvel production.  Is it as bad as it's reputation?  Well, two of the three of them don't think so.  Give a listen or it is punishment season.

Listen up, #PrisonMarch is back this week for more of Prison MarcH 2: Second Offense! This week's women-in-prison movie released by New World Pictures is 1972's THE BIG BIRD CAGE written and directed by Jack Hill and starring NWPP favorites Pam Grier, Sid Haig, and Vic Diaz. Returning again for the fifth time to dish out her thoughts on this flick is the fantastic Ali Davis! You may remember Ali from one of her four previous episodes with the New World Pictures Podcast such as COVER GIRL MODELS, GODZILLA 1985, TEH FUNNY FARM, and UP FROM THE DEPTHS. THE BIG BIRD CAGE serves time as a non-sequel follow up to THE BIG DOLL HOUSE, only this time with significantly less Lambanog! This time around, Hill delivers on everything you might expect from a film like this given the title, plus a plan to free the inmates of a local women's prison so they can offer companionship to some local rebels! It's the women-in-prison and revolution crossover you've been waiting for, unless you've been waiting for one with lots of birds in it! In that case, you might be in for a surprise!  In this episode we will discuss the musical stylings of Pam and Sid on and off screen, the durability of a bamboo Prison, and, most importantly, the team bravely attempts to crunch the numbers on a titty count in this over the top episode you won't want to miss!

That's right, #PrisonMarch is back for Prison Marc H 2: Second Offense! Once more, we plumb the depths of the women-in-prison movies released by New World Pictures, this time with an Italian knock-off created after New World's THE BIG DOLL HOUSE became a huge success! Yes, plenty of studios were making knock-offs by 1973, but only Roger Corman would popularize a subgenre and then also release a knock-off of the very thing he popularized! Returning to discuss this Italian version of a Corman movie with us is Chris Iannacone from the Get Me Another podcast, who previously joined us for the Italian-produced LADY FRANKENSTEIN. Lucky for us, Chris has been preparing for this episode FOR YEARS! We will discuss this wild tale in our usual NWPP manner: by piecing together the story from the reassembled footage Roger had put together for its American release. Did Sister Maria do a good job rehabilitating the girls? How important is it to know someone with a circular indoor pool? How cool is Jeff? And what's the biggest thing you've ever slept through? We dive into it ALL! Join us and become one our NWPPVIPs, the only listeners we will bury.

Everyone has a different path at New World Pictures, but Alan Toomayan may have had one of the strangest!  From driving RVs on movie sets to working as a Production Assistant on New World's GRAND THEFT AUTO and driving Ron Howard around to moving into the editing room for SATURDAY THE 14TH and working with producer Julie Corman, Alan has done it all! Moving on from New World, Alan worked on THE HOWLING where he met director Paul Bartel and would work on Bartel's EATING RAOUL, THE LONGSHOT, NOT FOR PUBLICATION, SCENES FROM THE CLASS STRUGGLE IN BEVERLY HILLS and LUST IN THE DUST, which was released by the second ownership group of New World Pictures! Alan shares the behind-the-scenes stories of working with Bartel, even on the unfortunately cancelled EATING RAOUL sequel, BLAND AMBITION. We also get into Alan's work editing trailers for New World in the 1980s and why HELLRAISER has a special meaning to him. Thanks so much to Alan Toomayan for appearing on the show!!

 We close #FFFebruary (Foreign Film February) with an Academy Award winner! Director  Volker Schlöndorff's 1979 adaptation of THE TIN DRUM! Based on the book of the same name by Günter Grass, the film shows the rise of authoritarianism in Europe prior to World War II through the life of self growth stunting,  drum banging and screaming Oskar (David Bennent), whose ability to shatter glass with his voice is no comparison to his ability to shatter lives!  We dive into the drumming of it all (there's a lot), the horse head of it all, and some of the wilder moments that an 11-year-old actor David Bennent had to undergo in order to play Oskar, who goes from climbing bell towers alone to holding his own brother/son. It's quite a singular film, one whose title continually reminded us of a certain English new wave band.     What did we love? What did we hate? How did that book end? How did New World Pictures get their hands on this in the first place? We discuss it all, and reveal next month's theme month!  For more about the New World Pictures Podcast, including previous episodes, t-shirts, mugs, sweatshirts, other merch and more, head here: https://newworldpicturespodcast.com/ For all the shows in Someone's Favorite Productions Podcast Network, head here:  https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/ 

Do you know how much reggae is played in San Diego? Marc and Ryan do, and Erica sort of does, which makes the NWPP the perfect podcast to discuss Jamaica's first film, 1972's THE HARDER THEY COME, as we continue #FFFebruary (Foreign Film February)! A foreign film where the only language used is English? You bet! But, if you think you won't need subtitles, you'd be wrong (or from Jamaica)! Jimmy Cliff stars in this musical crime film as Ivanhoe Martin, based on a real figure from Jamaican history, who moves from the country to the city of Kingston to make his fortune and dabbles in both music and danger! From fixing up bikes to recording new club hits to taking down cops, director Perry Henzell's debut film not only introduced the Jamaican film industry to the world, but its soundtrack is often hailed as what brought reggae music to the United States, including several tracks from Jimmy Cliff himself!  Picked up for distribution by Roger Corman's New World Pictures, the film has enjoyed cult status for many years.  We examine Henzell's feelings about New World and Corman's thoughts on the film. We also discuss the trouble with autocorrect, the popularity of barbershop quartets, the proper temperature for a recording studio, when moms don't want you to follow them to the city, and the brand new beverage that is sweeping the country!  Really, there's two and they both sound delicious!   Don't miss this trip into another under-discussed gem from the New World Pictures vaults! We think after you listen to it, you'll "soon come" back for more!

Welcome to Foreign film February! This month we will explore some of the foreign films of New World Pictures! FFF, as it's affectionately known, starts off with A LOT of heart (maybe even a little too much heart) with the tragic STORY OF ADELE H directed by Francois Truffaut. Set in 1863 - oh la la mon ami a period piece - we follow a young woman (Isabelle Adjani, POSSESSION) in her absolute QUEST in pursuit of her love interest Lieutenant Pinson (Bruce Robinson, director of WITHNAIL AND I). Using a fake identity, and the power of the pen, she tries to win Pinson's heart the old fashioned way, through love letters, stalking, hypnosis, and, of course, moving to Barbados! (If you couldn't tell already, Erica once studied French so naturally this film was juste dans son allée!) Listen in as we talk about how little Erica, the self proclaimed Francophile, actually knows about who Adele H really is. Let Marc's thoughts on hypnosis mesmerize you, and we know we aren't at final questions yet, but you know that we asked them. Foreign Film February may be the shortest month of the year, but trust us when we say, the films have never felt longer.

It's time for another New World interview, this time with editor/director James Melkonian, who started as an intern at New World Pictures before climbing the ladder all the way to VP of Post-Production! James spent five years at New World, toiling away on a wide range of projects - GODZILLA 1985 (Ep. 108), THE PUNISHER (Ep. 121), REFORM SCHOOL GIRLS (Ep. 81) - just about everything at New World, especially once he took over the Post-Production department from Tony Randel (HELLBOUND: HELLRAISER II, Ep. 106).   From doing edit work on NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER (Ep. 29) and MAKING CONTACT (Ep. 40) to supervising the music for EAT AND RUN (from last year's #NOvember), James discusses a variety of New World films with us, including spilling some wild stories from THE GUNRUNNER (starring Kevin Costner), THE TELEPHONE (starring Whoopi Goldberg and directed by Rip Torn), and KNIGHTS OF THE CITY (starring Leon Isaac Kennedy)! Then, James explains how things started to change at New World and let him know that the end was near!  Once New World closed its doors, James moved on to direct a couple movies post-New World, THE STONED AGE and THE JERKY BOYS.  You don't want to miss this episode, which gives an unique inside look to how New World Pictures ran during the second ownership group!    Thanks so much to James for appearing on the show!    For more about the New World Pictures podcast, head here: https://newworldpicturespodcast.com/    For all the shows in Someone's Favorite Productions Podcast Network, head here:  https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/     

What better way to start the year than with a monster movie in which the creatures are literally crawling out of holes in the ground? It's simply ideal for Movie Oubliette! Nominated by our Patron, Philip O', C.H.U.D. (1984) is a New World Pictures production set in 80s New York City... so you better believe this is gritty and wild! Starring John Heard, Daniel Stern, Kim Greist and one-scene-CHUD-victim John Goodman, the film has a host of surprisingly well-drawn characters investigating the disappearance of homeless people in the city's labyrinthine underground world. But does it deserve to be the first film we save from the oubliette this year? Find out! Follow us on Tiktok, Facebook, Instagram and Bluesky.

Welcome to #FANuary, where we talk about the movies you, the listener, asked us to discuss.  Our first entry in #FANuary is 1987's TAX ATTACK 87, a Learning Corporation of America production staring comedian Robert Klein (SNL).  Learning Corporation of America was owned by New World Pictures and focused on educational videos like In the FOR SAFETY'S SAKE: IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD starring Gary Coleman.  By the way, if you haven't listened to our episode on that video, do yourself a favor and check it out.  TAX ATTACK 87 is meant to be an instructional video for how to complete your annual taxes using the new laws that were introduced in 1986.  It's equal parts educational video and live action children's board game.  Given that children don't file taxes and adults don't typically need board games to learn, it's anyone's guess who the target audience is for this little slice of New World Pictures americana. We leave no stone unturned looking for deductions and credits in TAX ATTACK 87.  Why is Robert Klein arguing with a off-screen IRS agent?  Ryan has a solid theory.  Erica gets immediately bored when Marc explains how to play craps.  Ryan shares a story about going to comedy traffic school with his mom.  Erica sings a banger of an opening song.  Both Ryan and Marc share familial memories of watching the America's Cup when it was held in San Diego.  This, of course, bores Erica even more.  We even make a sneaky Twin Peaks reference even though we couldn't have anticipated the passing of David Lynch (RIP) only a couple days after the recording.  Seriously though, Dune is one of Marc's favorite movies and he thinks its way better than the Denis Villenueve version.  

We continue #DIEcember 2: Slay Bells Ring with another obscure slasher, 1984's THE INITIATION. This one is filled with family secrets, sharp hand rakes, and hot - temperature hot - sex. It's a movie about the power of dreams or at least the power of attraction that comes from participating in a sleep study. It's about a mother's sacrifice, and how, no matter what you do, it doesn't matter. It's about real dads and fake dads and dressing up like a penis to a party, only to get murdered in an empty mall.  Listen as we discuss this early entry into New World Pictures' second ownership group output, released the same year as ANGEL and CHILDREN OF THE CORN. You may ask yourself:  could a crowd of people with lit candles enter my room while I'm asleep without me noticing? Is it ethical for a teaching assistant to date a student? How comfortable would it be to have sex on a stack of rugs? Enjoy this slice of 1980's slasher history, as only the NWPP crew can deliver! 

It's our good buddy Mike's birthday and to celebrate, he wanted to talk about this 1975 classic from New World Pictures.

We continue #ROBOtober with 1972's THE CREMATORS, a movie that doesn't include a single robot but that's okay because #ROBOtober is all about the weird movies made by New World Pictures.  You wouldn't be to blame for punching holes in the second part of that last sentence but we will move on. Considered one of the cheapest movies made by New World Pictures, THE CREMATORS is a science-fiction, horror movie about a minivan-sized Cheeto ball that terrorizes a small lakeside town.  The Cheeto ball feeds on human flesh but otherwise leaves everything else alone.  It also get's its powers from little rocks.  If you hold the rocks with your hands, they will leave an unremovable glitter stain not unlike Ace Frehley's outfit from the cover of KISS Alive 2.  THE CREMATORS is more than the sum of it's parts.  Hospital emergency rooms look like the living room of a house,  laboratories look like the wood paneled basement of your Uncle Flint's house, and the audio....  the audio is almost impossible understand which is unfortunate since a lot of the dialogue takes place over ham radio.  Speaking of which, looks like we at The New World Pictures Podcast will be gifting each other ham radios for the holidays.  Thank you, CREMATORS For more podcasts on the Someone's Favorite Productions Podcast Network, head here: https://linktr.ee/someonesfavoriteproductions

Welcome to #ROBOtober, where we will be discussing things you never knew New World Pictures released, starting with the 1988 Robocop Animated Series! Created by Marvel Productions, which was owned by New world at the time, this Saturday morning cartoon could've been a staple of your childhood weekend viewing, but only lasted for 12 episodes! We will go through the first episode and discuss the series as a whole, including our favorites, as we try to answer some of the questions the series raises, such as, why does everyone hate Robocop so much? How does the rest of the country work with OCP? Why does Robocop ignore his partner's obvious love for him? And can Detroit get a break?

We end #SEXtember Part Deux, our 2nd annual look at the sexy films of New World Pictures, with PARTY INCORPORATED aka PARTY GIRLS, a 1989 comedy directed by adult film director Chuck Vincent and starring adult film star Marilyn Chambers, who also starred in New World's RABID from David Cronenberg.  The film centers around Marilyn Saunders, who is famous somehow and has a TV show about her life that is being filmed that is very popular with the bar/sleepover crowds. We discuss this movie's wild history, which drawer is the best for hiding your illicit material, when exactly party planning industry became a thing, and we offer a sneak peek at one of the other varied podcasts we are working on!  Plus, Human Resources drops by and much more!

We continue #HAHAugust, our celebration of the comedies of New World Pictures, with an interview about one of classic comedies to emerge from Roger Corman's New World Pictures, 1979's ROCK 'N' ROLL HIGH SCHOOL! Joining us to talk about the film is author Stephen B. Armstrong, who just wrote a book on the subject called I Want You Around: The Ramones and the Making of Rock 'n' Roll High School, editor Mark Helfrich, who got his start on the movie as a production assistant and assistant editor, and the movie's director, Allan Arkush, who also spent years working at New World editing trailers for the company.  If you are a fan of this movie, you don't want to miss this episode! We discuss the many iterations of the script, Arkush's journey with the Ramones, how New World fought the movie internally, and much more!  For more about Stephen, visit his website, https://stephen-b-armstrong.com/, and buy his book wherever books are sold!  For the video about The Wiltern mentioned by Mark and Allan, head here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ti49ckZZNFI And for the GET CRAZY video Allan mentions on the episode, go here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMlpF76gRz0 For more about the podcast, please visit:  https://newworldpicturespodcast.com/

We talk with former New World Pictures editors, Kevin Sewelson and Dave Parker.  Both Kevin and Dave started out as trailer editors during the last few years of New World Picture's existence.  Kevin also edited In the Aftermath and we talk about the challenge of creating a story blending live action with Mamoru Ishii's Angel's Egg.  Kevin and Dave describe the challenges of creating a story and dialogue to weave the two different stories into a cohesive unit. We learn about the set in Fontana and the rock bottom pricing New World Pictures paid to shoot there after Terminator 2 had completed filming at the same location.  This episode is chock full of interesting behind-the-scenes stories.  We learn about their early days at New World Pictures pulling all-nighters in the editing room in the former Lion's Gate studio.  We discuss the slow demise of the studio and new ventures that sprung from the talent that left.  We also get to discuss a couple NWPP favorites including 18 Again, Heathers and Flowers in the Attic.  For Marc, we spend spend a little time discussing Angel of Death and Dave tells an incredible story about a never-seen trailer he cut for Hellraiser 2.   It's a fascinating and fun interview and we're incredibly grateful to Dave and Kevin for taking time to chat with us.  Enjoy the interview.

Our #SciFiJuly Presents #DystopianSummer continues with an interview with DEAD END DRIVE-IN director Brian Trenchard-Smith! From the beginnings with the script to the purchase of the movie by New World Pictures at the Cannes Film Festival, Brian tells us all about the journey of his film, while also telling tales about a few of his other films, including STRIKE OF THE PANTHER and THE MAN FROM HONG KONG! Perhaps fittingly, Brian spoke to us while sitting outside during a heat wave, but that didn't damper his spirits as told us about the importance of having a good mechanic, gave a sweet eulogy to the late, great Grant Page, and described how they shot two stunt sequences for DEAD END DRIVE-IN on the same day.  Don't miss this interview with an exploitation legend!

We continue with #SciFiJuly Presents #DystopianSummer with a Nearly New World that is very close to the hearts of (most of) the hosts of this show: John Carpenter's ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK. No, this was not released by New World Pictures, but, fret not, we will explain how we fit into our Nearly New World series.  Will the hosts gush about the movie? Yes! Will they offer criticisms? Kind of, a little! They will also discuss  why this movie is so important to (most of) them,  offer their own Letterboxd synopses, and of course, compare the original to ESCAPE FROM L.A.  Will Henry Thomas ever listen to this show after this? Doubtful! But you can listen to every episode and follow along with the #DystopianSummer here: https://newworldpicturespodcast.com/

Halicki (THE JUNKMAN).

Erica reveals to Ryan and Marc that her Uncle owned a peculiar car security company who's jingle may or may not have been the inspiration of "Welcome to the Jungle". Marc proclaims to the voice and face of a new generation.  We talk a lot about Long Beach (CA not NY) and the state of LAX in 1974 and we introduce new sponsorship opportunities for Pepsi.  You listening Pepsi?  Be our sponsor.

This week we tackle GODZILLA 1985- and we struggle with it as much as our critics do!Godzilla 1985 is a 1985 kaiju film directed by R. J. Kizer and Koji Hashimoto.

In addition to the film being re-cut, re-titled, and dubbed in English, Godzilla 1985 featured additional footage produced by New World Pictures, with Raymond Burr reprising his role as American journalist Steve Martin from the 1956 film Godzilla, King of the Monsters!, which itself was a heavily re-edited American adaptation of the 1954 Japanese film Godzilla.Subscribe Today!

Finally, Godzilla returns! And this time, he's sleepier than ever!  After 9 years away from the box office, Japanese film studio Toho decided they need to expedite another GODZILLA movie and created 1984's THE RETURN OF GODZILLA. That film ended up in the hands of New World Pictures, who chopped it up and added extra American footage starring none other than Raymond Burr, who appeared in the Americanized version of the original Japanese movie, and the result is GODZILLA 85, a movie only New World could make! We'll discuss alternate ways of dispersing Godzilla, birds, the film's unique marketing strategy, cadmium, and, of course, Dr. Pepper!  Joining us is a returning guest, writer and performer Ali Davis, who brings with her a love of GODZILLA movies and many questions about the film's (surprisingly) confusing plot! Don't miss the discussion of this New World classic. For more episodes, merch, and more, go to www.newworldpicturespodcast.com.

The leader of the Cenobites is portrayed by Doug Bradley, and identified in the sequels as "Pinhead".”But also, Poor Things and May December.
