S5. Episode 6. Seb Hunter And His Elder Movie (Trailer...)

from Regarding...Series · host Chaz Charles

Scott and the assembled Order of Mildly Concerned Scholars (Wolfie… and special guest Seb Hunter, emerging from the fog like a man who’s seen what lies beyond the fourth gate of The Elder) convene for what was supposed to be a routine episode and instead becomes something far stranger: an encounter.Because this week isn’t just about Music from The Elder.It’s about a man who looked at that album—its ambition, its confusion, its audacity—and decided the real problem wasn’t that it failed…it’s that no one had finished the job.What follows is less an interview and more a careful excavation of a long-dormant creative experiment. Scott and Wolfie guide the conversation as Seb Hunter recounts, with equal parts clarity and disbelief, how a throwaway idea—“what if someone actually made The Elder into a movie?”—mutated into a full-blown production effort:A screenplay written in earnestA trailer shot with real actors and real intentionA grassroots network of collaborators, fans, and the occasional internet wildcardAnd a persistent awareness that somewhere, possibly, Gene Simmons could shut the whole thing down with a single phone callSeb is reflective, candid, and occasionally amused by his past self—the version of him who thought, quite reasonably at the time, that you could just… make a movie. The hosts, for their part, oscillate between fascination and the dawning realization that they are speaking with someone who got closer to solving The Elder than anyone ever should.There is talk of ambition.Of creative delusion (the productive kind).Of the brutal math of filmmaking—where passion is abundant and money is not.Because if The Elder taught KISS anything, and if this project teaches us anything now, it’s this:You can build the world.You can write the script.You can even gather the fellowship.But eventually…someone has to pay for the horses.The ShowIn this season of Regarding…, the panel tackles KISS’s Music From The Elder one song at a time—testing whether its epic ambition holds up under scrutiny. Alongside the analysis, Scott D. Monroe’s original screenplay tries to turn the album’s abstract mythology into an actual story.Ambition meets accountability.GO BONELESSCertified boneless in the state of Ohio by the Boneless Podcasting Network.
