"In a Violent Nature" is a new horror film by director Chris Nash and producer Peter Kuplowsky. Shot in Sault Ste. Marie, its fresh take on the slasher flick - this one told from the point-of-view of the killer - has earned rave reviews from critics and horror fans. It joins a long list of horror movies made in Ontario - from "Black Christmas" to "The Fly" - that have scared audiences for decades. To discuss Canada's significant contribution to horror movies, we welcome: Chris Nash, director of "In a Violent Nature;" Peter Kuplowsky, a producer of "In a Violent Nature," and programmer of TIFF's Midnight Madness;Carolyn Mauricette, programmer at Fantasia International Film Festival and Blood in the Snow Film Festival; and Alexandra West, author of "Gore-geous: Personal Essays on Beauty and Horror," and co-host of the Faculty of Horror Podcast.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sometimes it only takes a simple shift in perspective to truly change the game...On this one we're playing a little bit of catch up but it's for a good one that is still doing great business heading into it's second weekend.  It's time for 'In A Violent Nature'.When a locket is removed from a collapsed fire tower in the woods that entombs the rotting corpse of Johnny, a vengeful spirit spurred on by a horrific 60-year-old crime, his body is resurrected, and he becomes hellbent on retrieving it. The undead golem hones in on the group of vacationing teens responsible for the theft and proceeds to methodically slaughter them one by one in his mission to get it back – along with anyone in his way.Through the simple idea of shifting the perspective of the narrative to the killer we get to see a genre in an entirely new light and it's fascinating.We had the pleasure of sitting down with "Johnny" to talk about the film but thankfully he's played by friend of the show the one and only Ry Barrett.We talked with Ry about stepping into the mind of a killer, the nature of how they shot the film in the great outdoors, some of the wild kills and his journey as an actor up to this moment.

Dave and Ethan catch up on a busy few weeks of exciting Weird Al news and recap their experience attending Roku's official US Premiere of WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story at the Alamo Drafthouse in Brooklyn, NY!

We're in the thick of it now as the Toronto International Film Festival which is running from September 8th through to the 18th  and as the cinematic world descends on our fair city, we decided to embrace our dark sides just a little bit.One of the longest running (and most popular) programs in the festival is the Midnight Madness series that ranges from the macabre, the gory and the flat out weird.  In advance of the festival we had the chance to sit down with lead programmer for the Midnight Madness block; Mr. Peter Kuplowsky to not only talk about what's in store for the festival but the monthly does of Midnight Madness that have been and will continue to be happening down at the TIFF Bell Lightbox.

Hosts Josh and Jamie and special guest film programmer, producer, and writer Peter Kuplowsky discuss two underrated, self-reflexive 90s thrillers about witnessing a murder: David Steinberg's slapstick sketch comedy homage to Hitchcockian identity thrillers THE WRONG GUY (1997) and Anthony Waller's gruesome, meta cat-and-mouse suspense machine MUTE WITNESS (1995).

After a brief winter hiatus, the CUFFCast boys are back in studio and are joined by current TIFF Midnight Madness Programmer, Fantastic Fest Shorts Programmer, Producer of cutting-edge indie cinema and champion of outsider art-- Peter Kuplowsky! It was an absolute joy to speak with Peter about topics ranging from Short Film Tips to the explosive entertainment of PM Entertainment.

Toronto-based film producer and TIFF Midnight Madness programmer Peter Kuplowsky comes on the pod to talk about The Astrologer (1975), a one of a kind vanity production / ego trip by first time filmmaker (and con artist) Craig Denney, briefly screened after being rediscovered decades later but then pulled from circulation over music licensing issues too complex to untangle. But before the clampdown it did play theatrically in Toronto, thanks to Peter Kuplowsky. And I got to see it. This episode goes down the rabbit hole: what The Astrologer is, how it was made, and why you currently can't see it. Don't worry that you need to see this film before you listen to the show because it could be a long time before it is seen again, and besides this crazy film is impossible to ruin and just part of an incredible overall story. Our conversation also covers vanity films, the numerous comparisons that can be made between The Astrologer and Citizen Kane, the horseshoe theory of when incompetence becomes genius, and the mysteries around director Craig Denney, who disappeared from the world in the years following the film's completion and near-erasure. Plus Peter and I chat about how George Lucas could be the subject of the next Citizen Kane remake, and Peter recommends a newly rediscovered vanity film you CAN see right now.

On their final episode of the year, Rob and Geoff look back on a sometimes unreal year in film and television, and reflect on the trends and themes that shaped the industry by revisiting some of their favourite TIFF Long Take conversations from 2017. Excerpts include: IndieWire’s Anne Thompson on the death of the old studio system (2:10); Variety’s Owen Gleiberman on Netflix and Amazon’s negative reception at Cannes (6:40); Vanity Fair’s Katey Rich, Mike Hogan, and Richard Lawson on how the Oscars view streaming services (9:25) Franklin Leonard on the importance of Moonlight (14:50) BFI Southbank’s Gaylene Gould on reframing the context of classic films (17:00); Los Angeles Times’ Tre’vell Anderson on why are studios are reluctant to finance diverse films (20:50); IndieWire’s Tom Bruggeman on what film studios could learn from the Mayweather vs. McGregor fight (24:45); The Ringer’s Adam Nayman on franchise fatigue and the decline of Summer blockbusters (29:00); Jason Blum on the economics of the genre films (36:25); TIFF’s Peter Kuplowsky and Faculty of Horror’s Alex West on why horror has thrived while the greater box office is on the decline (40:20); USC’s Professor Stacy Smith on the the data behind Hollywood sexism. (47:35); Ashley Mckenzie on working in a male created system (51:35); and Christine Kleckner and Steph Guthrie on where the film industry goes after #MeToo (54:40).      

We’re not even halfway through our stashed Halloween candy, and it’s already official: 2017 has become the biggest box office year ever for horror. While the domestic box office has been down 11 percent since 2016, horror films managed to pick up $733 million in ticket sales, fueled by monster smashes like 'Get Out' and 'It'. In this episode of TIFF Long Take, host Geoff Macnaughton puts together his own Scooby Gang — 'Faculty of Horror' podcast co-host, Alexandra West; and Midnight Madness programmer, Peter Kuplowsky — to investigate our renewed bloodlust for genre films. The three discuss the mainstream appeal of horror (4:10), why some Stephen King adaptations thrived ('It') while others failed to stay alive ('The Dark Tower') (7:40), and how Jordan Peele’s Get Out became a cultural phenomenon (10:45). In the episode’s second half, Geoff, Alexandra, and Peter get into why A-listers aren’t necessary in horror (18:00), what major studios can learn from Blumhouse (22:55), and why movie theatres are still the perfect setting for jump scares (28:05).

The LASER BLAST GANG is back! Peter Kuplowsky, Matthew Kumar, Justin Decloux and Nathaniel Wilson have returned to your ear brains to talk about forgotten films and cinematic wonders. This week the gang watch two financial failures directed by Mike Nichols and his ex-comedy partner Elaine May. First up, Nichol's directs George C. Scott in the 'train a dolphin to assassinate the president' film DAY OF THE DOLPHIN. Second is Elaine May's famous flop ISHTAR. Are both these films lost classics that deserve to be re-discovered? Or do they suck so badly that someone says it's the most 'BORING LASER BLAST EVER'? Are there masturbating dolphins? Why does someone talk about pipe cleaners in a pee hole? Is Steven Spielberg's 1941 the best comedy of all time? ONLY A LISTEN WILL DELIVER ALL THE PULSE POUNDING ANSWERS!
