Ep 377: Jordan Downey

PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmaker Jordan Downey (THE HEAD HUNTER, THANKSKILLING, CRITTERS: BOUNTY HUNTER) virtually joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen to discuss his career journey. From film school and making the move to Los Angeles… to finding a way to survive in the real world while consistently pursuing his dream… to making films instead of waiting for permission to do so… to the making of his latest- the medieval horror epic THE HEAD HUNTER (now streaming on SHUDDER) and how he pushed a truly meager budget to enormous cinematic heights… Jordan's story is one that will inspire anyone looking to pick up a camera and tell a story. Dr. Arwen provides emotional support and advice for a filmmaker standing at the COVID-crossroads with his first feature film and the guys weigh in on the current trend of "virtual film festivals" in the face of the pandemic that has turned 2020 into a total shit show.
