It's a "high stakes" episode of BTL Radio Show thanks to filmmakers MICHEAL BAFARO and MICHAEL MITTON (aka THE MICHAELS) talking their new horror film DON'T LOOK AWAY. Plus, my exclusive interview with director NIMROD ANTAL talking RETRIBUTION.
First up take a listen to my exclusive interview with director NIMROD ANTAL talking about the high-octane white-knuckler RETRIBUTION starring Liam Neeson. This is classic Neeson and Nimrod takes us along for the ride – literally. An interesting conversation discussing the logistics and thematics of the making of RETRIBUTION and the magic of Liam Neeson.
Standout in RETRIBUTION is the cinematography of Flavio Martinez Labiano and together with Nimrod, the pair craft some textured visual grammar to deliver powerful visual and emotional tonal bandwidth. And calling on editor Steve Mirkovich, the tension of RETRIBUTION is ratcheted up beyond the thrills and chills of an edge-of-your-seat E-ticket ride. Nimrod and I cover it all and more in this in-depth interview.
And then we are joined live by MICHEAL BAFARO and MICHAEL MITTON (aka THE MICHAELS) to talk about their new chiller thriller DON'T LOOK AWAY. What a fabulous and fun filmmaking duo! Criminals, killer mannequins, and bloodshed, Oh My!
A refreshing entry into the horror genre, The Michaels and I dive deep into the "making of" DON'T LOOK AWAY discussing collaboration, the genesis of this story, casting, cinematography, color palette, sound design and score, not to mention the challenges of a sometimes uncooperative mannequin!
