Description

The 2nd edition of The Not 100 Project is a monumental entry for Scary Movie Week...it’s Night Of The Living Dead! The AFI didn't find this horror classic worthy of the Top 123, but its lingering effect on audiences and its influence on film history is massive. Also, we really felt the need to give the horror genre its due in a way the AFI did not. Get your zombie on!

Ryan and Bev Ellis are partners in film nerdery who share their often humorous musings on the AFI's 1998 & 2007 lists of the greatest 100 American films ever made. But we finished with that in December 2015, so now we just review anything we feel like!

Damien shares the inspiration for Art The Clown, the role that “Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors” played in the sequel, and what he took from Ripley in the “Alien” movies and gave to his own final girl, Sienna Shaw. He talks about creating and building the special effects used in the film, designing and applying the makeup effects himself, and what it was like to spend 2 days shooting with fans who contributed to the Indiegogo fundraising campaign. He speaks to writing and filming during the pandemic, the film’s 2-hour plus run time, and one-upping the kill scenes from the first “Terrifier” movie. Plus, Damien shares stories from Chris’ one night on set, and having to rethink and reshoot the endin by Talk Is Jericho
