Welcome to Eye On Horror, the official podcast of iHorror.com. This is Episode 105, otherwise known as season six, Episode Six. I'm your host James Jay Edwards and with me as always is your other host Jacob Davison, how you doing Jacob,
Jacob Davidson:doing good finally back on the West Coast and had a hell of an adventure. Back home in Massachusetts.
James Jay Edwards:Yeah, we we missed an episode. So we have a lot to talk about this time. But um, yeah, sorry, guys. If you wait with bated breath for our episodes, we skipped a week. Also with us is your other other hosts Jon Correia. How you doing, Correia?
Jonathan Correia:doing great. glad. Glad to be back. But yes, our schedules have been fucked to put it lightly of lately. But Jacob, you went to Salem horror fest?
Jacob Davidson:I did. I had a I had a short in the festival, the October Martyr, which was directed and CO produced by Rob Tiemstra who I had also traveled with. And it was really nice. I'd never been to Salem Horror Fest and it had been awhile since I've been to Salem, actually. I'm from Massachusetts, but you know, made it up there every now and then. And yeah, the festival was great. I loved meeting Kay for the first time she runs a festival and I met a lot of other great filmmakers. And it was very accommodating. I got to see a lot of interesting shorts and films. And yeah, right now hoping you know, see what happens with the artists awards. Fingers crossed.
Jonathan Correia:The word Did you have a chance to go to the witch museum or the or the Satanic Temple headquarters?
Jacob Davidson:No, although I did walk through that Salem Witch maze dungeon thing. Fun, very kitschy sort of way. And also a great food in Salem. Like I went to the pizzeria and Rockefellers. That was good.
James Jay Edwards:We have a ton of stuff to talk about. Because there have been the during the time that we missed an episode, a lot of cool stuff has come out so but the big thing that has come out is Evil Dead Rise.
Jacob Davidson:Yes.
James Jay Edwards:What do you guys think of Evil Dead Rise?
Jacob Davidson:Oh, well, I was at the pre screening they did at the Arrow Theater. And there is just nothing quite like seeing an Evil Dead movie with a completely sold out crowd. And you know, just like a people yelling and screaming and laughing and you know, it's just it's a real crowd pleaser movie. And, you know, it's just, you know, I was very interested in the concept because, you know, for so long it's just, you know, Ash, cabin in the woods. Even the remake, you know, his cabin in the woods kind of followed the beats, like this is far left turn. Because you know, it's this old, decrepit high rise in Los Angeles. Yeah, and yeah, they're in you know, they find the Necronomicon and the recording. And, well, now we got Deadites in LA.
James Jay Edwards:It's pretty much everything that I wanted from an Evil Dead movie they I was actually originally pissed because the Evil Dead press screening was the same night as Beau Is Afraid which we'll get to. And I was really bummed. I'm like shit, I'm willing to see one of them. But it worked out for the better because I got to see. And you know, I promised I wouldn't say how this happened. Let's just say someone is on my Christmas card list. Now. I got to see another a different preview screening of Evil Dead Rise that was with a full audience not just press and I'm so glad because you are 100% Right. Those movies are so much fun with a packed crowd. And I was giddy the whole time. It's everything I wanted from an Evil Dead movie at this point. Because like you said, it's a different spin on it because it takes it to the more urban atmosphere. But it's an Evil Dead movie. It is. I mean, it's more akin to the 2013 one. So if you're one of those people who were pissed off that this humor of the original isn't in in Fede's, this might not be for you. Because it is, It's brutal. It's gory. It's dead serious. But it's a freaking Evil Dead movie. And it's so much fun.
Jacob Davidson:Although I will add it it is a bit more serious than the usual Evil Dead movie, but it still had some pretty good gags. Like it even did like the eyeball spit thing.
Jonathan Correia:Yeah, I was I was gonna say I've seen I saw it twice so far in theaters. And I went to the early screening at the Alamo Drafthouse so the pre pre show was fucking Incredible, showing Evil Deads from all around the world. But definitely like the second viewing, like the humor popped out a lot more with the second viewing and it's just it's such got dark Gonzo humor. During the pre show they had an interview with Lee, the director, Yeah, Lee Cronin, who said that the humor the dark humor is kind of like in between Evil Dead one and two. So it's not as slap sticky as Evil Dead 2, but the Gonzo humor is definitely there. what's for the eyeball. But but the eyeball bit is fucking gorgeous.
Jacob Davidson:Yeah!
Jonathan Correia:I, you keep saying it's everything that you want from an Evil Dead movie. It's everything I never knew I wanted from an Evil Dead movie, like it hit. It had all the like, ingredients that you need for an Evil Dead movie. But by putting it into a new urban area, it was just, it was incredible. And I gotta say, I don't know about you guys. But as someone who lives in LA, I want to, I want that apartment, like that apartment in that building. That is exactly what I want. I want a giant apartment for cheap. That has old architecture, and I don't care if like the sink is kind of funky and all that. Except for like, you know, the Necronomicon being in the basement that apartment seemed fucking killer,
James Jay Edwards:and the fact that it's going to be torn down.
Jonathan Correia:Well, I mean, yeah, that that's not an ideal situation. But like, you know, everything else about it was very, very awesome. But yeah, no, I absolutely loved it. I really want to talk about a lot of points that are very spoilery. But maybe we'll save it for like another minisode or so.
James Jay Edwards:Yeah, maybe we'll do a minisode on it. Because you don't want to have it spoiled even though how much can you spoil and Evil Dead movie. I mean, it is very much an Evil Dead movie. And it is I was surprised at how well it translated to a different setting than the cabin in the woods. But they pulled it off it. It was it was great.
Jonathan Correia:I do want to say to everyone out there. The title card is incredible. They're online now. Stop taking fucking videos and pictures of it with your goddamn phones and theaters. I understand. It is incredible. It is awesome. Keep your phone in your fucking pockets. Thank you.
James Jay Edwards:I saw that so much. Just I'm gonna go on a rant for a second. The Return of the Jedi celebrated its 40th anniversary and
Jacob Davidson:oh yeah, I went to one of those screenings
James Jay Edwards:did everybody whip their phones out to to record the opening crawl?
Jacob Davidson:I don't know because I was at Alamo. So if anybody did that they get kicked out.
James Jay Edwards:Yeah, they shut that shit down there. I saw so many on my timeline. And these are people that I expect better from and they're showing the Return of the Jedi crawl and I'm like, Really, people just enjoy. I went to a midnight screening of Halloween a couple Halloweens ago when the theater that I used to do that was open it closed shortly after the pandemic, but um, and the opening scene with that with that with the pumpkin and you know the and the 15 people ripping out people were giving out their phones for that like people. God. Anyway, speaking of humor, either you guys seen Beau Is Afraid? Okay, Beau Is Afraid. It's the new Ari Aster movie who brought us Hereditary and Midsommar. It's challenging. It is three hours. And it is basically I've heard Ari Aster describe it as, as the Odyssey or Lord of the Rings, like a journey movie. But it's basically a Jewish guy wanting to get home to his mother. And that's what it is, basically Joaquin Phoenix is this really unstable guy, and he just wants to go home and visit his mother. And he is just there's just obstacle after obstacle after obstacle. And the reason I think it, it's described, Ari Aster described his next movie A long time ago as a as a four hour horror comedy or something like that. And it's not four hours. And the comedy is weird, because it's the kind of comedy where you're not sure if you should laugh. I'm sure it's intentional. But you're laughing and you feel weird about laughing because it's just odd. But it is. It's a weird movie. It's gonna be divisive. It's a challenging movie. It is... Beau the main character is famously unreliable as a narrator. So the entire movie starting with the first act, you're like, Is this really happening? Or is he imagining all this stuff? And you never really get an answer to that question, like his whole journey. You're like, Okay, how much this is real? How much of this is fake? You know, or did he die at the beginning? There's a point at the beginning of the movie where you're like, Okay, this is going to take a turn and we're going to find out he died then. And this whole thing has been a dream. And that doesn't happen. Spoiler alert. He doesn't like you know, end up you know, it doesn't tell you Yeah, he's have been dead since this point. But there is a point where you're like, it's hard to tell how much is real and how much is in his head. And it is. I mean, it's a beautifully made movie, The the imagery, you know, the cinematography, the sound, the music, everything is just beautiful about it, but from a story standpoint is going to be challenging to some people. And I think that was probably Aster's point. You know, he doesn't care what people think of his movie. He made it for him. And, yeah, it's a it's a crazy one. To also talk about comedy, Renfield. Do you guys see Renfield?
Jacob Davidson:Yes, yeah, I loved Renfield
James Jay Edwards:I really loved it too. It's, it's funny because it focuses more on Dracula's sidekick Renfield, which is Nicholas Hoult. But Nick Cage is...
Jacob Davidson:Oh, yeah.
James Jay Edwards:It's it's pretty hilarious because Renfield goes to these support group meetings for codependency. codependent on Dracula. And it's funny because at one point, he breaks free from him and he gets his own apartment and starts to live in his own life. And he comes home one day. This is this is what cracked me up about probably the funniest gag in the movie to me. He comes home one day and Dracula's in his apartment. And he goes, Hey Renfield and then he looks down and he sees it. He has a welcome mat says welcome come on in and he's all because he invites Dracula in with his welcome mat.
Jacob Davidson:Yeah, and I love the contrast of Dracula look at you know, looking very classical look and Renfield I guess what's been repressed on you know, color because of all that so like, this whole apartment is like this kind of gosh, almost John Waters ish pastel colors.
James Jay Edwards:Yeah. And the clothes that he gets when he when he breaks away. They're all like bright and colorful. One of the other funny things I loved was like towards the beginning when they're given the backstory of it, they rip off shots from the original Dracula. But instead of Bela Lugosi, it's Nick Cage. So if you know the original Dracula, it's hilarious because it's frickin it should be Bela Lugosi but it's Nick
Jacob Davidson:Yeah. Because actually, that's the thing. I Cage. was at the pre screening at the Arrow, and they had the director Chris McKay there and they said, you know, when they were making the movie that you know, it's a universal movie. So they had access to all the footage from the original Dracula. So they actually edited that footage to insert Dracula, Sorry, Nicolas Cage and Nicholas Hoult as Dracula and Renfield. So it looks like, you know, that the original Dracula had the minute.
James Jay Edwards:Yeah. I love that. That was hilarious. They do like the Forrest Gump thing where it's basically, you know, it's the original movie, but it's like, they've always been those characters.
Jacob Davidson:And I really dug it just because it was kind of a subversive Dracula movie and just genuinely a really fun, horror comedy. And especially like it was more action packed than I would have expected because, yeah, you know, like Renfield basically gets super powered every time he eats the bugs because he's usually Dracula's power. So there's bits where like, he's ripping people's arms off. And he's like, punching people's heads off. And he even beats a dude to death with his own arms. So like they were just having a blast with the sheer amount of violence.
James Jay Edwards:Yeah, that was those that was fun. And he you know, it's like every time shits gonna go down because there's also there's other subplots with like drug cartels and other stuff. And whatever shits gonna go down. Renfield is like, I need a bug, find me a bug. Because he needs to eat a bug to get his powers.
Jacob Davidson:And at one point, he's scarfs down an entire ant farm and sand it all.
James Jay Edwards:Yep.
Jonathan Correia:That's gnarly.
James Jay Edwards:Yeah, that was it was Renfield is a fun. It's a good time. It's kind of getting skewered. I've seen a lot of critics are not into it, but I had a blast with it.
Jonathan Correia:That happens a lot with comedies.
Jacob Davidson:On a similar note, as anyone else seen Sisu?
Jonathan Correia:No I've want to badly. I preordered the 4K already
James Jay Edwards:I've heard it's just a lot of Nazi killing.
Jacob Davidson:Oh, there is a lot of Nazi killing
Jonathan Correia:That headline where it's just like, it's 90 minutes of Nazis being killed and tortured. I'm like, yeah!
Jacob Davidson:Oh, yeah I was into it. It's directed by Jalmari Helander. Who did Rare Exports, remember the Christmas horror movie? And yeah, no, it's just it's really simple but really fun because it's just yeah, it's like at the toward the end of World War Two. The Nazis are evacuating Finland and they're doing a scorched earth policy where they're just destroying and stealing everything they can on the way out. And they happen to come across this old Finnish soldier who is prospecting for gold Aatami played by Jorma Tommila she Yeah, he's panning for gold and he finds the mother lode and these Nazis decide they're gonna steal, steal his gold so that they can, you know, make themselves rich at the end of the war. And he's at he's not gonna let them have it without a fight and it just has done the most over the top like war fights and brawls I've ever seen like they're like there's a point where he's under a lake. And so the Nazis said one soldier after another into the lake to try and get them because they figure he can hold his breath long enough. And so he just like slits the Nazis throats when they dive in after him, and he, like steals their air to stay underwater.
Jonathan Correia:That's awesome.
James Jay Edwards:That's genius writing right there who came up with that? That's awesome.
Jacob Davidson:I don't know. And just one of my favorites is like that, like the Nazis are chasing him into a minefield, and he's surrounded by mines, and he just takes the mines and starts chucking them at the Nazis and blowing them up.
Jonathan Correia:And that's the that's the dad from the Rare Export movies, right? Who plays the lead?
Jacob Davidson:Oh, yeah. I think he was the dad. Yeah, he was.
Jonathan Correia:That's awesome. He's, he's one of those actors, when I see him pop up is definitely gonna get a treat because he was great. Also, I don't know if you guys ever saw a Big Game from the same director. But that was a lot of fun too.
Jacob Davidson:I got to see that one.
Jonathan Correia:Oh, it's worth it. But yeah, no, I'm super excited for Sisu. And yeah, like I said, I already got the 4K preordered so.
Jacob Davidson:Oh, no, it's worth it. Like, if you like seeing Nazis killed. It's the movie for you.
Jonathan Correia:It's like the one group of people that I don't mind a lot of like, torture porn happening to
Jacob Davidson:Yeah. Even go into the history in the movie about the war. So it was. So it was interesting from that perspective, but just in general, though, it's a kick ass action movie.
Jonathan Correia:What you're saying is, is it's educational, and so you should bring the children.
Jacob Davidson:Yes, it's a it's a documentary.
James Jay Edwards:Would it make a good double feature with Inglorious Basterds?
Jacob Davidson:Oh, yeah it would, in fact, I was thinking that while I was watching the movie, they go hand in hand.
Jonathan Correia:Oh, man. You're gonna you're gonna leave that double feature ready to punch all the fucking Nazis
James Jay Edwards:Guess what our theme tonight is?
Jonathan Correia:Blasting Dead Kennedys on the way out. Just*graaahh!! noises*
Jacob Davidson:Green Room next
James Jay Edwards:To come down.
Jonathan Correia:bring it back to reality.
James Jay Edwards:You guys see Guardians of the Galaxy 3?
Jacob Davidson:I did.
James Jay Edwards:What do you think?
Jacob Davidson:I really liked it.
James Jay Edwards:It's my favorite of the three Guardians of Galaxy movies. I think. I didn't realize I could care that much about a CGI talking raccoon
Jacob Davidson:voiced by Bradley Cooper though.
James Jay Edwards:Oh, my I was almost in tears in some play. And you know, we don't want to spoil anything about it. But basically, the whole movie is them trying to save their friend Rocket.
Jacob Davidson:Yeah. No, I was amazed. Like, you know, I was in the theater and I didn't cry but I definitely felt the emotional impact and just the theater I was in though, to quote Scrooged, Niagara Falls like so many people were crying during that movie.
James Jay Edwards:You could hear sniffles
Jacob Davidson:Oh yeah.
James Jay Edwards:In ours. Yeah. Yeah, it's it's a pretty emotional movie for I mean, people think you know Tony Stark and Spider Man you know in in the Infinity War movies. You know "I don't feel so well, Mr. Stark...", you know, people were crying about that. Oh, yeah
Jonathan Correia:well, that scene a quick tangent. That scene's sad because Peter because of Peter's spider sense. Yeah, he sensed it coming, but didn't know what the fuck it was. But he he know he didn't know what was going on. That's why he's going I don't feel good. Mr. Stark is because he had that extra like foresight, but had no idea of like, because it doesn't tell him exactly what it is. He just knows something bad's coming. And I was having that. That's why that's so heavy and fucked. but uh, but yeah, I mean, if they follow rock...because I read the comics when they came out, if they follow Rocket's origins. Yeah, I can imagine that it's a real tear jerker.
James Jay Edwards:They go into a lot of his I don't know if it's the same because I didn't read the comics, they go into a lot of Rocket's origins. And it's pretty heartbreaking where he came from. And also, you know, there's, there's more to it as to why it is. It is sad. But, you know, this is supposedly they've been building it as the end of the Guardians of the Galaxy. It's not the end of Guardians. It's the end of this formation of it, because at the end, I mean, I don't want to spoil anything, but at the end, you see where the team has no choice but to kind of break up. But then, you know, there's a new Guardians of the Galaxy that forms because it even says, you know, the credit scenes is like guardians of galaxy, we'll be back. But, you know, it's, it's not the same team,
Jonathan Correia:which is understandable. I mean, rosters change all the time. Um, but I'm glad that they were able to finish it at least with this one. Yep. Um, so I did have I have a you guys have been going off on a lot of movies I haven't seen yet. But have you guys seen Polite Society?
James Jay Edwards:No.
Jacob Davidson:Yeah, I was planning on seeing it next week.
Jonathan Correia:It's not horror, but there is a lot of action. And it's really fucking good. So I'm going to talk about it for a second. But it's about these two sisters one wants to has a goals and ambitions to become a stunt woman and her older sister is an artist. And their lives aren't going super great. Especially the older sister, she dropped out of art school. And they're both Hindi. Hindi background. And so there's a lot of culture or cultural clash of that with modern women and tradition. So the older sister ends up kind of getting into an arranged marriage. And the younger sister says, it's something wrong. She's like, No, you're changing too much with this. And so she's trying to basically kidnap her sister before she gets married. And it is so good. It is so much fun. It's got a high energy to it. It reminded me a lot of Sorry To Bother You. But it doesn't go quite as Gonzo, as that movie. But it's very high energy. I left that theater like bouncing around. And that wasn't because of my caffeine at all.
James Jay Edwards:Is it like a martial arts movie kind of thing?
Jonathan Correia:There's a lot of fight scenes. They're very over the top. They're very funny. But that third act is done really, really well. I would highly recommend it just because like, it feels like one of those movies that like it's gonna find its audience and when it finds its audience, people are going to absolutely love it. It's it's just real good. I just wish more people you know, have seen it so far.
James Jay Edwards:the way you describe that when it finds his audience is going to be huge. It that reminds me of RRR is it going to be that big when it finds its audience because that was a phenomenon?
Jonathan Correia:Well, I mean, RRR is an absolute epic of epic proportions. And just like insane
James Jay Edwards:that should be on the poster and epic epic proportions
Jonathan Correia:that movie is I haven't seen it
Jacob Davidson:what, you still haven't seen RRR?
James Jay Edwards:Yeah, you have to see it. It's crazy.
Jacob Davidson:How long has it been out?
Jonathan Correia:there's an ongoing joke in my house where it'll be like 10 o'clock at night and I go, Hey, Lindsey, you want to watch this movie? It's three hours long. Yeah!
James Jay Edwards:It's crazy because like, there'll be like these knockdown drag out fights and then it'll cut to like, a song and dance number. I mean, it's Bollywood
Jacob Davidson:a friend of mine put it best it's basically the closest we've gotten to a good live action, Dragonball Z movie.
Jonathan Correia:There's no song and dance. There is one dance sequence but it was a part of the wedding. But it Yeah, it's there's some Bollywood influence, but not you know, it's more straight up action comedy. But what I mean by when it finds its audience, I mean, it's got cult written all over it
James Jay Edwards:oh got it okay,
Jonathan Correia:but it's it's a lot of fun. Was felt very much though, like, kind of like an Edgar Wright movie. In a lot of ways of like that style of like action and comedy and like quirkiness.
James Jay Edwards:Does it have the soundtrack of an Edgar Wright movie?
Jonathan Correia:It does. It really does. That soundtrack is fucking dope that soundtracks dope.
Jacob Davidson:Yeah, I want to see it next week at Alamo or something.
James Jay Edwards:That's another thing we didn't mention about Guardians of the Galaxy. The soundtrack is just a spot on it but the thing is, is Star Lord lost his Walkman. So now he has a zune. And so so it's like an mp3 player with all this other stuff. So it moves into like 80s and 90s and even 2000 stuff, but yeah, every song is perfect.
Jacob Davidson:Oh, yeah. No, James Gunn really knows how to put a mixtape together.
James Jay Edwards:Hell yeah, he does. Yeah.
Jacob Davidson:Let's see, you know, on other new releases, which gotten hard. Did any of you see that anime movie, Suzume?
James Jay Edwards:No
Jacob Davidson:Oh, that was that was a fun one I saw while I was on the east coast between festival weekends. It's by Makoto Shinkai who did Your Name that pretty big anime movie from few years ago. Basically, it's about this girl who meets this exorcist who's trying to keep these gates closed, keep this demon from underneath Japan from getting out, causing disaster, and at one of the gates he gets cursed by the spirit and gets turned, I shit you not, into a chair. So the girl and the exorcist is now chair have to go across Japan and try and keep the gates closed to stop this demon from getting out. And is the thing with Shinkai like he has these very ridiculous and absurd premises, but it was very emotionally rending and kind of deals a lot with the themes of grief and response to disaster and beautifully animated like it looks stunning.
Jonathan Correia:And also, if you haven't watched it yet Boulet Brothers Halfway to Halloween special on Shudder is fucking incredible. If you are missing the skits from Dragula Titans this makes up for it, its campy it's fun, and there's a great performance by the Satanic doowop group, Twin Temple . also Katya does an entire song about ravioli.
Jacob Davidson:Everybody loves ravioli
Jonathan Correia:but even the Boulets are like yeah Katya is gonna sing a song about ravioli. What does that have to do with Halloween? I have no fucking idea. And let me tell you showstopper. It's incredible.
James Jay Edwards:Cool. And now we are joined by a very special guest. We have Berkley Brady, the director of the upcoming Dark Nature. How're you doing Berkley?
Berkley Brady:Very well, very happy to be here.
James Jay Edwards:We're happy you're here. The question I always like to start off with is how did you get started in filmmaking? Has it always been what you want to do? Or did you get led down the path by something else? Or
Berkley Brady:it's funny, I have a friend of my mom's and he did concert promotion. So we have friends just in movie production as well. So when Legends of the Fall was filming in Alberta, I got to go to the set. And when I told him that if I need to tell me it's like, I'm so sorry. Tell your mom. I'm so sorry for introducing you to production. But I think at that time, it just seemed so impossible to be from Alberta, Canada and make movies so when I split to that set, I was amazed by things like they've had built a house but when you went into the house, there was no second floor just stairs. Yes. And then just lighting room for the camera. There was a snack shed at the craft shed was part of the like backyard farm shed but you opened it up and it was just like every candy and every snack you can imagine. Like what is best place?
Jonathan Correia:That is the best part of set is the Crafty trailer.
Berkley Brady:Yes, no questions asked. You can come in, come out. No one shakes your pockets.
Jonathan Correia:You can go up and ask. Yeah, can I have some fruit? Three jerkies. And like you can order the most random combination stuff in there like yeah, come right up.
Berkley Brady:I know. I love that. I love that already come up here like Where's my hat sandwich? Not yet, Berkley. Not yet. 15 more minutes still those come back.
James Jay Edwards:Is there a good film scene in Alberta now? Or do you have to go to like Vancouver or Toronto? I mean, it's there a little, a little scene in Edmonton or,
Berkley Brady:you know, I'm actually in Calgary. So yeah, I was born in Edmonton, and booming here. We are definitely a high demand location. we are not huge for above the line. Although there is a really big indie scene here. And a lot of people doing cool horror movies. And a lot of people coming back from Vancouver who moved their work here, but I mean Predator: Prey shot here actually some of the same locations as my movie, trivia question if you can see which one, and Fargo, we just
had Wind River:The Next Chapter. It's It's so busy here that it's hard to crew. And that was an issue we had. So it's a really high demand location, Alberta. Because we have the Rockies, you have praries, we have horses, we have such hardcore crews who can work in the most extreme weather and do it in ways that like, it's like, blows my mind how tough the crews are here, and how good transport everything, we have everything here. And we also have some tax credits, the government's been putting more into that. So we can host bigger and bigger productions. And there's also the exchange rate. So every time you come from America, your dollar is 30% stronger. So it's like a 30% sale for everything for you. Whereas when I come to you, it's like everything's 30% more and it's that's why it's hard to travel the states. But ya know, it's bustling. And same with the indie scene. And there's a really strong indie scene, It's kind of like a horror ghetto happening here.
Jonathan Correia:Oh, that's awesome.
Berkley Brady:Yeah. Yeah, it's really cool.
Jonathan Correia:I want to go to the horror ghetto that sounds that just sounds like a Magnolia Park for here in LA. There's just like a lot of horror shops called that now. Speaking of locations, you guys got some incredible outdoors. I mean, the entire thing is outdoor, except for like the very opening. And I
will be looking at the Predator:Prey similarities with the locations now. What were some of the difficulties like because you guys did such a good job. Was it as were you guys as remote as it looks in the movie? And what were some of the difficulties in getting to those spots?
Berkley Brady:Well, I think one of the main difficulties is just the travel. So it'd be about 45 minutes to an hour drive each way in which you know, on that's getting into territory where if we could we would have hosted people, but there's areas where you weren't really near a hotel anyway. And we just didn't have that budget to provide for people. So when you're waking up at 4am in the car by 430, so you're at set by 545 to be there for a six call time it adds up. It was down on the will to live for each person there. So what we did was we went into some provincial parks and tried to find locations that were close to road access. And the only thing that wasn't really close to road access was down at the water the water scene and that involved a hike for the crew of a kind of a big hill. And that really also added up on the day because you have to go to the bathroom up the hill down the hill, your equipment up the hill down the hill, Hill down the hill and so by the end I remember just looking around as we were all coming up the hill and people just look like just like fuck my life, like it's so hard and that was actually the Predator: Prey location where she gets chased by the bear that in the water there the beaver dam.
Jacob Davidson:Oh, yeah.
Jonathan Correia:Oh, yes.
Berkley Brady:So they built in and brought into Beaver Dam, whereas we just use the there is that sort of love pilot, and we have actors like going in there. They did have wetsuits on, they have little like custom wetsuits. So they weren't in the just their clothes, but it's still a glacial river. And so for predator prey, I was taking the DP down there, and we'd already scouted the location and so I didn't know predator was also shooting there. But their locations people were down there setting up and they had like hot tub there for the actor, and porta potties are like, Oh my gosh, how did you get porta potties down here? Oh, the helicopter, drop them off
Jacob Davidson:the studio budget money,
Berkley Brady:right as like the helicopter, of course! So for us, we did not have that. So yeah, it was we really did put that effort in everyone knowing that it's going to be worth in the end to create this feeling. Because there's there's parks in Calgary, like we have one of the biggest urban parks in the world. It's an amazing park, you could totally make a scene there. But you're gonna hear the train in the background, at times, you'll hear traffic, you know, and I just thought, we'll come this far, let's just like give the actors in the field. So we really went to the woods, and then the the where you see them climb up to that cave, that was about a 20 minute drive or walk from circus. And that was like straight up so that that was also really challenging, but it's like it's a real cave in the in the Rocky Mountains like, common, I gotta go.
Jonathan Correia:That's awesome. They were a really does help in creating that. Cut off and you're out there when when you're shooting practically and not have Yeah. Obviously trains are a dead giveaway. And who does it like to bring up you seeing the car go by and Lord of the Rings in the background?
James Jay Edwards:Yeah, it helps with the isolation. I think that's the word you're looking for. Yeah. Yeah, isolation of the characters.
Berkley Brady:Hiking is hard, right? Like, it's a little hard to be on a hiking trip, no matter what age you are, who you are. And I think having that sense of fatigue, of course, the actors can act fatigue. But there's also just a level, I think that you can pick up off like they had, there's a focus, you need to be there. And I think that was the quality I wanted them to have. And I think they do.
Jacob Davidson:And I did want to ask about that. What was the casting process like?
Berkley Brady:Well, I had, I'm Métis. And so that's, I don't know if you guys in the States know much about that. When I went to school there. Everyone's like, what is that, but we're an indigenous group in Canada. We're like, when the French were here, they mixed with the local indigenous people, especially Cree. And we sort of like made our own thing have couple good couple 100 years where it was like, we just do our own thing in our way here. So I really wanted to cast have as much indigenous representation in the film behind the scenes that have a camera and in front. So that definitely played a role. So yeah, I had so I worked with Madison Walsh on a TV show about Marguerite Riel, who's a Métis leader and hero. And I thought she was just so good and so smart. And I wanted to work with her again. And then I heard about Roseanne Supernault from a friend here an actor, and she suggested her, and I liked her and I liked that she was local. So I chose her. And Helen Belay, I'd worked with her on a little short film, hasn't come out yet, but it's called Song of the Dead. And I thought she's just so talented, also local. So I kind of have this dream of cultivating these working relationships with actors here, so that we can do more here, even on the fly. It doesn't always have to be such a big project. It just like, you know, kind of like a troupe. And then with Hannah, it was really hard to find the lead because I'd had actually an offer out to somebody else that I wasn't, we were just in a holding pattern for so long, and it didn't end up we were really close. It just didn't work out. And so of course it's like a bit of a panic because it's the lead role. And then I had heard of her and started to see some of her other work is like, you know, she really has the sort of like, she's such a beautiful woman, but I think she's not afraid to go to like ugly places. And I really They like that. And so I met with her over online. And I just felt confident that she could do it. And it was really great to be on set and just see how good she is and how good they all are. And to see that was the first time I've got to work with a whole ensemble of people who are just, they know what they're doing. Like the dirt, like, they were just, I could give them a direction, or they would, the idea they brought themselves was already spot on. And Hannah and Madison would always have a competition, like who could do it in one take. So sometimes I will say Madison, she did cheat a little like Hannah would be doing her take, and Madison would be in the back doing faces. Make her mess up. Because they had that competition. But they're just so talented, all of them,
Jonathan Correia:which is needed, because this is very heavy subjects that are on each one of these women has experienced past trauma that they are overcoming and in various stages of it, which of course, the woods brings back in full force. What was the process of getting to the truths of that are like representing and showing that in inaccurate form? I mean, we see what the main character, you know, at the very beginning that the guy is a bastard. I mean, that's right out the gate. And seeing the seeing those traumas and those experiences manifests in each one of these women. What was what was, what was that like? I mean, that's, that's hard working and getting out not only in the writing, but in the performances.
Berkley Brady:Yeah, I think I think for them, that's what they do. You know, for them, they can express every range of emotion and their complete prose. So I don't know if they found that aspect of it challenging. But I think in writing it and thinking of it, I did so many rewrites, and I had rewrites, where you don't really realize what happened in our relationship until later. But then I thought, well, this is a horror. So I want to start with some something scary, like, and let's just look at this scene of, I guess you could call it domestic abuse, but it's just an abusive relationship. And it's a toxic relationship. And it was important for me to show that they are both in this, he takes it to the next level, because he's a sociopath. But she's not like this sweet little perfect malice victim, like she's in this bad relationship and making the choice to be there. So she needs to figure out why she's doing that. And I think that's a bit more interesting than like, bad guy, like sweet girl, or, you know, good, bad person. It's like, it's very complex, why people are in bad relationships, right? And so I really wanted to I was looking at just at the end of so many horror movies, you think like, Man, those people who are left, they're going to be pretty fucked up. traumatized? And what if you just start the movie? Like, yeah, we'll just take it for for a given like that these people have all been through life. And already you're coming with the trauma, going to the woods, trying to deal with it. And maybe it's truthful. So what I know is that just because you start working on a problem doesn't mean you're going to have fewer problems, life is going to be delivering whatever it is. And that's kind of what's horrific about life,
James Jay Edwards:the problems will follow you to the woods sometimes.
Berkley Brady:Yeah, wherever you go, there you are. Yeah.
Jacob Davidson:But yeah, I did. And I really did like that, though, that each member of the group kind of has those flashbacks. And instead of, you know, just seeing them, in the midst of it, like we actually flashback with them, or like we see the visions that they see, what was that process like, especially since it kind of brought people in and out of the forest.
Berkley Brady:I think I really wanted to make their experience subjective, and to bring the audience into what they were feeling. So I think that with trauma, PTSD, and my own experience with it, like I was robbed when I was in Brooklyn, and went like mano y mano. What do you call it like, contact like, like, it became like a fight like I was fighting back because it's a long story. They say you shouldn't fight back. But you have to be in the moment and sense like what he says, anyway, long story short, and got my stuff back from my phone. But just like being attacked and fighting, there would be things like, two days later, or three days later, I would see someone just in the corner of my eye, and it would just make me scream that it wasn't like, I was screaming and when I got robbed, it was just like, and it wasn't like I was like not in control of I was like, oh my god like just seeing that quick movement. It just made me scream like that was just a purely physiological response. So like, holy crap, if you went to combat or if you're someone who, you know, I know not everyone in combat gets PTSD, but like, I think I would be one who would be Just to have this involuntary experience or going through difficult things, I think like rumination not being in the moment, you're just brought back thinking you're back thinking about something that's not about where you are in that moment. And that can really robbing you of your life. And so I wanted to show that each character was dealing with their own version of what happened to them in the past, and not become trauma porny and go into these like exploitative flashbacks. So I liked that level of voyeurism too, like part of me is like, oh, it'd be kind of fun to go see, like, what really happened to her like, it's a guilty pleasure. And I'm not proud of that. But like, I don't hate it, to see that too. And I just, I just decided, like, let's keep it here in the present, and show like, what they're dealing with here and allude to what happened. And people can fill it in with their imagination, like, go on YouTube, you can get all crazy stories. And, you know, like, I feel like we've had enough of it.
Jonathan Correia:But even just because that is one of the important things, because outside of Hannah, we only get little flashes of what the others have been through. But it's just enough to let you know, like, oh, and like you said, the mind fills it in. And I really appreciated the those moments, especially the spacing out and people going, where, where were you? Where were you just Yeah. And you can see a little bit of a time lapse, especially with Hannah, that those felt made of feel really real.
Berkley Brady:Yeah, I think, you know, the type of person I've just looking at myself and some of my other friends, like who've gone through harder times. Just to be honest, I like I wasn't the best friend to them at the time when you need your friends the most? Or is maybe the time you're not going to be the best for them. And I thought that was an aspect of just friendship that I wanted to explore. And I hadn't seen done.
Jonathan Correia:Yeah, definitely the the moment where the friend goes, this was your last chance. I was just like, not now! not now, but I also get it. But I also know, it's like, how much can you try to help someone who's not doing the work? Or it doesn't seem like they're doing the work? You know, it's
James Jay Edwards:what was the line something about? I don't want to be I don't want to care about you more than you do or something like that. Yeah, that was the one that really stabbed
Berkley Brady:yeah. Because she's like, pushed to that you're like, Oh, brink. And she's looking, I think, for Hannah's character she has to for joy. It's like she has to look at how is this violence that I've been a part of and and still sort of engaging with? How is it hurting others around me? And can she make the right choice for her friends? If she can't make it for herself? Can she start by making it for her best friend?
Jacob Davidson:Yeah. And I was also going to ask what it was Yeah. like working with Kyra Harper, as kind of the authority figure in Dr. Dudley and how that dynamic kind of played out.
Berkley Brady:two actors. And I just felt like, I wanted to learn who was older than the others. Because I feel like there's just an emotional authority you can have with an older person. And I think she also was just like such a acting veteran, theater veteran, just so good. Like when we did ADR for her screens were like, her screen, like she can scream on a dime, like all manner to be like, well, like they should, but what? She's just so good. And she wasn't there for as much of the shoot. So we were sort of flying her back from Toronto a couple times. But it was really great. We and we actually worked with had a psychologist come and work with the group when we when everyone first got there. And I wish we had been able to do that earlier, because I think able to tweak some of the things in the film. But that was especially helpful for Kyra, because she and I could like I could pull her aside and be like, What would Dr. Rochelle say remember with Dr. Rochelle, so like the actors did, basically like in character, a group therapy session with a real psychologist.
Jonathan Correia:Oh, wow.
Jacob Davidson:Yeah, that's intense.
Berkley Brady:It was really intense and really cool to see like their backstories and what they what they were bringing to the character and then dynamics that happened in the group, like they kind of went out each other. And I wish we could have filmed this and like, bought this dynamic a little but then they did in there was like a touch point that we had through the shoot. And there's one scene that we cut that you kind of alluded to some of their their interpersonal dynamic dynamics. But with Kyra that was really really great because we could look at the way the psychologist would handle these heated moments. And it you know, she's a pro like that. She says it does things that are not what the average person would do. She's she's really leading sort of by example. So for Kyra, we could always say like, well, what would you know Dr. Rochelle say here, remember how she steered this? And yeah, I think people who don't believe in therapy or hate therapy? I like that beginning you're gonna be like, Yeah, this is not, this is not good. This is like, this is a bunch of bullcrap. But then in my direction, it was like she is very sincere. And I think this trip could have been a big success in a different forest.
James Jay Edwards:There's something about the movie that we need to kind of tiptoe around because we don't want to spoil anything. But I think all of us want to talk about the creature. The monster, though now at first, when these ladies are in this forest, you start thinking it might just be the haunted forest or, you know, with their flashbacks and their trauma rearing its head. But there is in fact, a monster. Can you talk a little bit about the monster, the monster design? And how it? How did the monster come about?
Berkley Brady:Well, it's a very dramatic tale, actually, with the monster.
James Jay Edwards:I'm glad I asked
Berkley Brady:me to, because I think the monster is that some interdimensional worm hole, black hole dimensional thing happened where this thing landed in this place. And over the eons, has evolved, just like any life form here. But it's kind of stuck in the wrong dimension, but it has dimensional powers, like it can move through dimensions in ways we can't. So that's why can like target your thoughts. And that this thing is basically going to be feeding off anything you bring it. So it could be if you're coming in fear and anger, it's gonna make you more fearful and angry. But if you came, maybe offering something or with a different energy, it's going to give something a little bit back. So in my idea, it's people had once understood this creature and its power and we're using it in like a medicinal way, but we're also giving it offerings are kind of like living in harmony with it. But since those people were kicked off the land, it's been kind of starving. So it's just sort of in itself like desperate and going to just be bouncing off whatever comes and it's kind of angry because it's been lonely. So I really also wanted it to be reflective of the predators of the region who also have evolved in those those environments. And so especially like its skin and the bark, and wanted to look like bark and the rocks we looked took a lot of samples from that place in that cave and that for us to design its skin in terms of what it really looked like we actually were working with an incredible creature designer but the suit and feature that he made that when we got to set the actor couldn't move in it. So I'd be giving direction like hey, get down on the ground like can you be stealthy, stocky, let's stop looking through here. He's like, I can go like this. Oh, this is not good, because you have to be pretty active in that that outfit. So we had to scrap that which we put a ton of our budget and ton of time into you. And luckily, Kyra Macpherson, our head makeup designer, special effects, and Jennifer Crighton, the costume head of costumes they got together, and after shooting would just literally work on this new costume. And they literally saved the day. So we just shifted shooting to not have feature shots. Then they had about two and a half weeks to create the suit. And they did.
Jonathan Correia:And it's gnarly, gnarly looking suit, that's for certain.
Berkley Brady:Yeah, so they're incredible. They're both incredible artists. And Kyra in particular is just loves creatures and creature effects. And she does a lot of special effects for like tons of movies. But she also does when the military does, like training, you know, they'll like make be like, make it look like your intestines are blown out for the training. So they'll have like real actors and people like in the forest. And if you're in the military, these training have to come and do the first day, but they want it to be realistic for this training. So she'll do that. So that's why like the special effects of the let like the wounds that happen, I just loved the job that they did on that and her team
Jonathan Correia:that some of those wounds looked so great, but not to spoil, but the waterfall or jumping into the water bit and then seeing them come up and you just see all the blood trailing by your foot. I was just like, Oh, something gnarly happened with that fall.
Jacob Davidson:So I really liked the trail of blood and gore and the caves that she follows toward the end.
Berkley Brady:Yeah, I like that too. And in fact, you shot that last and I was like, Oh man, I wish I'd seen this earlier because I think I would have just bloodied him up more than to look so good like the bloodier and bloodier that he got but I loved and that was just one gory cave. They were putting blood in there for so long, just like it was just dripping. And so gross
Jacob Davidson:so that was great set design with the cave.
Berkley Brady:Oh, yeah, that's Myron Hyrak is his name and he kind of came out of semi retirement for this. If he we did The interior of the cage in a studio.
Jonathan Correia:Oh damn
Berkley Brady:So he thought he totally made that in his art department. So yeah, I would say, my creature came from another dimension. Maybe it passed by the predator prey spaceship. You know, just like, where are you going? I don't know. I'm just like going here. But I imagine it didn't. It is as it is because it's specific to this place. If that thing landed somewhere else, or came from that dimension, it would be a totally different, because I do think that is so amazing, like this idea of how the natural world and Mother Nature is like the real quantum computer. You know, it's like we like I love when you look at birds, and it's like, they have a beak that only fits this food that's at in this one place and this type of flower. And it's totally shaped to that because it's like, so evolved to its environment. It's I think this creature also is like that. But it also is interdimensional
James Jay Edwards:after predator prey came out I was saying that I want every movie to be basically a stealth Predator movie where like, stuff is happening and all sudden a predator pops up. That's kind of what dark nature did for me when you know, you have these women on this retreat to to tackle their traumas, and all of a sudden, there's a monster. I like yeah, this is it still predator? I mean, not that it's a predator. But it I mean, not that it is a predator in the predator franchise sense. It is a predator, I think.
Berkley Brady:1Yeah. Yeah.
Jonathan Correia:And I really liked how because one of my favorite things when it comes to creature features. I'm a huge fan of cryptids I was showing you guys my mouth man tattoo earlier. But I really appreciate when you do have a creature that is influenced through history and local mythos. And what have you that it's not over explained, you know, like, you don't just suddenly go Oh, yes, that's the that's the "Baba Dom". thing. And it eats babies, as we know, from the local, you know, when they get too hardcore into like, over explaining it and suddenly know all the rules. But I, you gave just enough detail, so that we have an idea. And then you see it more play out, there's there's a really great, same trend, I don't want to spoil it. But there's a really great scene in the cave, where you see the explanation of how hundreds of years ago the local groups would appease to it and would kind of work be copacetic with it. And you kind of see it happen there for a few moments of that kind of understanding. And God that was, that was great.
Berkley Brady:Yeah, cuz I think there is Oh, thank you. I'm glad you liked that part. And I think that there's something in facing your fears and going through difficult physical times, that really can strengthen you. And I know, I did a little documentary with the Cree elder here Doreen Spence about the vision quest that she leads with people, which is four days on the land, got on the land, no food and no water. And you know, it's something that you would have done, let's say in Cree culture, maybe when as like a rite of passage when you're younger, but it's something people do throughout their whole lives. And it's that idea of like, I'm going to do this thing, but I don't know how I'm gonna get through four days and four nights with no water. I've never done that myself. Gearing up, I'd like to do it. But the food I can imagine, but you're out there. And she kind of teaches like, whatever you're fearing is going to come up for you, it's going to happen. So how do you face it? Especially when you're under that sort of stress physically? And you do, and you get through it, and you're stronger on the other side. And so I imagined, let's say with this creature, maybe back in the day, he was part of some people's vision quests. And not everyone made it out because he might do the wrong thing. And there's no, it's not like, he's gonna be like, Oh, that's okay. Try again, tomorrow, you get a ribbon. Like he might eat you. But if he doesn't, and you figure it out, maybe you're bestowed with this strength for the rest of your life. And I just love that sort of, I think it's important for us to remember that, because there were so soft these days, like our lives are relatively easy, if you like, or like living in North America and at a house. You're probably like, not forced to be uncomfortable a lot of the time.
James Jay Edwards:Um, what do you have? Let's talk about the future for you. What do you have coming up anything you can, you can tell us about? Can we plug anything?
Berkley Brady:For sure. Um, well, I am adapting a book called The Summer of Bitter and Sweet, which is a different genre. But I hope to bring some real thriller aspects of the premise of that it's adaptation of a book. And it's about a young woman, a young Métis woman living on the prairies, and it's her summer after graduating high school. And it's also the summer that her father gets out of prison, but she's never met him because the reason he's in prison is for raping her mother. So she's sort of faced with him coming back into her life and looking at also her own fashion a lot about her sexuality. Which is that I guess I don't want to spolier, I don't want to give too much away, but she's wondering like, am I struggling with my sexuality because of how I was conceived? And also now this guy is trying to get back into my life what like, who am I really? How much am I like him? And how much am I like my mother and my, my culture, my family. So it's more, it's more of a like romance drama. But I want it to be kind of creepy and scary, because why not, and
James Jay Edwards:throw some Bones And All in there.
Berkley Brady:Right? Exactly. Because he's a violent guy. So you're always going to be I want like, you know, there's an edge of being on the edge of your seat component to every time he's around, I think. And then I'm also adapting the book Halfbreed, which is a memoir of an incredible mentor and, and woman named Maria Campbell. And she, that will be hopefully a limited series. I'm doing both those projects with Banger Films in Toronto. They're awesome. And then we kind of sci fi script with my friend Daniel, who actually plays the main boyfriend in Dark Nature. And it was his idea of a sci-fi script about basically set in the not too far future where people have merged with machines. Some people have and some people haven't. And so it's about a family who's living off the grid hiding from the sort of world and another family kind of says, like, can you take us in? Because we're also hiding but it's like, are they the cyborgs? Or are they not? It's like a sci-fi. Yes.
Jonathan Correia:And I know I said that the boyfriend was a bastard from the start I nothing against Daniel
Berkley Brady:He was great, a good actor
Jonathan Correia:I with the lighter to I was just like that that's a that's a thing people do where they're like, I'm gonna associate this moment with this. So you know what I'm doing? Yeah. Yeah. Like,
James Jay Edwards:where can people follow you on the socials to get updates on these projects that you're working on right now?
Berkley Brady:I have an Instagram, @Nika_Productions, and I am going to get better getting better at using it. I don't know, I was just epsilon, but I do like being on there and following you guys now. And then, on Facebook, I just have my name Berkley, Brady. And I don't do Twitter, because as a writer, it's like it's already there's just too many distractions of the world. If I'd been on Twitter, I'll never write a word.
James Jay Edwards:Yeah, Twitter is kind of toxic right now.
Jacob Davidson:Oh, extremely so. You're better off and I'm on Twitter, and I'm saying that.
James Jay Edwards:okay. Well, thank you for joining us this morning and talking about your movie. At the time that this post, Dark Nature will be hitting select theaters that Friday the 19th. And then will be available on VOD on the next Tuesday, the 23rd. Is there also a physical release? It's It's epic. So they're doing a physical right?
Berkley Brady:Yeah, yeah there will be.
James Jay Edwards:Okay, good. Yeah.
Jonathan Correia:The blu ray comes out June 25.
James Jay Edwards:Oh, June 25. Okay, great. Yeah. Cool. So you have plenty of chances to see Dark Nature and we all suggest that you do that.
Jacob Davidson:Oh, and real quick. Do you know what kind of special features will be on the blu ray?
Berkley Brady:I do, I have the composers, Ghostkeeper, they have a video that they have. That'll be on there. That guy's and I believe this is on blu ray, I have to confirm it. But the guys, some of the guys on the production made a little short film in the cave after we wrapped. So I think that's on there. Yeah, behind the scenes.
Jacob Davidson:It was a great cave.
Berkley Brady:It was a great cave. It was made out of tarp. Can you believe that, tarp? Tarp and pallets like it was seeing what art direction does that is? It's just I mean for every department but good art directors what they do. They're literally magicians.
Jonathan Correia:When I have little home projects. I always go to the to the art director on the gig I'm working on and go How can I pull this off? I want to make a shelf out of VHS tapes. Oh, you gotta use this, this and this. really? like yeah, it'll cost you five bucks.
Berkley Brady:That's what I love today. They're realistic, like, like with the tarps the guy like Myron, he took these like just tarps, normal tarps kind of slip up the ball string that took the semi truck or like a big truck and just rolled over them so that they were totally like creased when he took them apart and then spray paint and paint them so it has all that dimension. Like who does that?
James Jay Edwards:Good art director. I'm a I'm a sucker for composer stuff. So I'm looking forward to that special feature of the music because that's my thing too. Um, okay, cool. So, Dark Nature, in theaters on the 19th on VOD on the 23rd and follow Berkley to see the status of all of these upcoming projects. And thanks again for joining us. If you want to follow any of us.
