Also podcast host for MOVIES AND CHAOS and writer for the The Retroscope zine.ONE CUT OF THE DEAD is not-really a horror film that was made for $30,000 by a director whose ethos was: you need to make 200-300 movies before you can make a single good one!We do argue whether that’s actually necessary, certainly at that nutty number, but one thing is certain: Ueda made something AMAZING with One Cut off the Dead.The film soon reveals itself, and it is a celebratory, life-affirming, wild, comedic, charming, unforgettable filmwatching experience by the time the second (?) credits roll.THE WINES (and Hard Ice Cream Float)FINAL GIRLS WINE 2023 “Frankenfizz” Piquette of Sangiovese2014 Fiddlehead Cellars “728” Pinot Noir, Fiddlestix Vineyard, Sta.
