Summary

On episode 5 of Shock Waves, join co-host Rob Galluzzo as he's first joined by Elric Kane to discuss Korean feature THE WAILING, OUIJA and BEYOND THE GATES. Then Bekah reports back from the Phoenix Comic Con. Ryan Turek joins the show with his horror pick of the week, VENOM. Then we're joined for a very candid chat with filmmaker Mark Pavia. Pavia made his feature film debut with the 1997 cult favorite adaptation of Stephen King's NIGHT FLIER. And most recently the Scream Factory original FENDER BENDER. But we go into depth about the long break from directing and examine the true, tough challenges when it comes to directing horror in the studio system. We talk about SLICE, DEADWORLD and TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, all of which didn't happen. His relationship working with Stephen King. And how FENDER BENDER marks a resurrection through perseverance! A recommended listen for all aspiring horror filmmakers out there.
