Just remember, if you are offended by it, the joke is on you.” From Classic-horror.com Rob Wrigley Combat Shock (1984) directed by Buddy Giovinazzo Anton Bitel writes on VODZilla - Combat Shock is a downbeat, depressing film, dripping with a persistent pessimism that runs counter to the prevailing Reaganite ideology of the day. For here, instead of conspicuous affluence and yuppieism, we get an alternative view of street-level life on the destitute, desperate margins of Eighties America, comparable to the hell of war itself. Surf Nazis Must Die (1987), directed by Peter Gorge “"Surf Nazis Must Die" is the sort of film Ed Wood might have made if he were active today, except he'd be the only one not in on the joke.” David Lazarus, Salon.com Cannibal! The Musical (1993), directed by Trey Parker of South Park fame… Jenn Dlugos of Classic-Horror.com wrote: “I could go on about amateur screen shots, poor cuts, and very obvious continuity issues, but this is a film that you just don’t care. And if you do care, it’s probably not for you.” Fatty Drives the Bus (1999), directed by Mick Napier Gordon Maples of Misan TROPE y.com wrote “Fatty Drives the Bus” is not a good movie in any conventional sense of the term, but there is some strange enjoyment to be had out of it.  You can buy me a cup of coffee & support this independent podcast that I host and produce at https://app.redcircle.com/shows/ae030598-6b83-4001-8a29-5e5dd592ed26/sponsort  Please consider leaving a five-star review wherever you get your podcasts if you enjoyed this.

Screenwriter Stuart Wright talks with BAFTA award-winning screenwriter Anthony Mullins about one of the most powerful, yet most misunderstood, tools in a writer's toolkit - character arcs.  BEYOND THE HERO'S JOURNEY: Crafting Powerful And Original Character Arcs For The Screen is OUT NOW Get it straight from the publisher https://kamerabooks.co.uk/index1.php?imprint=4&isbn=9780857305114  Anthony breaks the discussion down into 5 things about his book: IT’S ABOUT CHARACTER ARCS - The book champions the most powerful, yet most misunderstood, tool in a writer’s toolbox - that is, character arcs - and uses them to challenge that the supremacy of that Goliath of storytelling theory, the Hero’s Journey.  IT’S VISUAL - I use a very visual way to illustrate how character arcs work and how they map the emotional shape of all sorts of stories (not just Hero’s Journeys), from inspiring drama to anarchic comedy to gut-wrenching tragedy. IT’S PRACTICAL - It’s not all theory. I also show readers how to use character arcs to develop and refine your own writing voice. Once you are able to identify how your favourite films use character arcs, you can use those lessons to figure out what sort of story you want to tell. IT’S DIVERSE - The book uses extensive case studies from a wide range of films, writers and genres from around the world as well as stories that feature diverse characters. Why? Because I want to encourage writers with a different story to tell. IT’S GOT EXTRA CHAPTERS - I’ve written two new chapters for the international edition. They’re about the lesser known characters in storytelling - Reactive Characters and Passive Characters - and include a close look at The Big Lebowski, The Father, Dead Poet’s Society, Being There and Midsommar. IRONY works as a driver of plot… Two choices that are good…  You can buy me a cup of coffee & support this independent podcast that I host and produce at https://app.redcircle.com/shows/ae030598-6b83-4001-8a29-5e5dd592ed26/sponsort  Please consider leaving a five-star review wherever you get your podcasts if you enjoyed this.
