Alex Cox
Alex Cox is a longtime filmmaker with a deserved cult fanbase thanks to REPO MAN, SID & NANCY, STRAIGHT TO HELL and WALKER, and has continued to make low budget films ever since, including his 1991 film EL PATRULLERO (HIGHWAY PATROLMAN), currently in re-release in theaters.

Brakhage and Reggio Talk to Students
Stan Brakhage and Godfrey Reggio Talk to High School Students: I found an old cassette tape of an interview I made for the print issue Cinemad #2. Avant masters Stan Brakhage and Godfrey Reggio met for the first time at the Telluride Film Festival in 1999 while speaking with high school students...

English Professors
To learn more about films about English Professors, I interviewed my friend Sean who is a college English Professor. Originally from Florida, now teaching in the middle of California, he skates, surfs, writes poetry and books, runs the indie Gorsky Press, and is a Thomas Pynchon scholar. We talk...
-
Apichatpong Weerasethakul
Apichatpong Weerasethakul is incredibly modest. From his first feature Mysterious Object at Noon (2000) to the popular Syndromes and a Century (2006) and Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives (2010), his films and installations play around the world in art houses and museums with huge...
-
Jennifer Reeder
Longtime artist and filmmaker Jennifer Reeder is originally from Ohio and puts much of that midwest town essence into her characters and themes in art, installations and films. Now living and working in Chicago for decades, two of her most recent shorts take nuanced looks into teen life that are...
-
Junkie Films
My friends C and S, who used to be daily addicts, talk about films. For the drug-film genre, heroin movies often try to be the most realistic, whether glorifying or damning. C&S talk about what their day-to-day drug life was like, what they think of the films and characters, AIDS scares, art,...
-
Calvin Lee Reeder
Calvin Lee Reeder has been kicking around the avant gutter for a long time now. His 16mm shorts weirded out audiences at film festivals and then two feature films did - THE OREGONIAN and THE RAMBLER. His layers of vivid color and texture in the film's images and constructed soundtrack pumps...
-
Anna Karina
This is a quick podcast, highlights from a panel discussion I led at the Off Camera Film Festival in Krakow in 2009, where Anna Karina was showing a selection of her films she made with Godard and a few films she directed. If you don't know her, she made some of the best films of the 1960s with...
-
Chris Goodwin and Chad Hartigan
Name a film. Immediately and from memory, Chris will tell you what date it was released and Chad will tell you what the box office was. How would two guys go from being obsessed with Hollywood so much that they know marketing statistics to being entrenched in the independent film world. One going...

Cinemad: Jem Cohen
Jem Cohen has been making films since the 1980s, from legendary short shorts ("This Is A History of New York") and mystical longer shorts ("Lost Book Found") to inspiring features ("Benjamin: Smoke" co-directed with Peter Sillen, and "Fugazi: Instrument"). He captures people in such a way that…

Cinemad: Kevin Everson
Kevin Everson makes a film a day. Not really, but his intense work ethic has resulted in tons of shorts and six feature films. Working in his own way with 16mm, video and long takes, he films African-American culture through daily family life. Creating a portraiture of people and their...
-
Cinemad: Toby Huss
The super talented Toby Huss is modest. Don't let him fool you. From his time as Artie the Strongest Man in the World in "The Adventures of Pete and Pete" to all his voice work for Mike Judge, he's made a lot of people laugh. He also has a great live Variety Show in Los Angeles as the singing...
-
Cinemad: Jeff Krulik
We go deep, deep into Jeff Krulik’s mind. If you’ve barely heard of him, you know HEAVY METAL PARKING LOT (1986), an incredible time capsule of Judas Priest fans waiting to see a show. If you’ve pushed below the surface, you might know him capturing unusual celebrity personalities like Freddie...
-
Cinemad: Tales of the A.D.
Ross Novie has been an A.D. (Assistant Director) for almost two decades now, known as the “go-to TV comedy A.D.” or “if you want to film in Africa talk to him.” He worked on Arrested Development, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and more shows and movies with a bunch of people you’ve heard of....
-
Cinemad: Rick Alverson
Rick Alverson’s new film THE COMEDY is not necessarily a comedy. Depending on your limits for satire, many scenes will make you laugh while you might be cringing or even angry at other scenes. As we follow 30-something Swanson (Tim Heidecker) in his privileged yet aimless leisurely days, the ante...
-
Cinemad: Sam Green
Recorded in April, we catch up with Sam Green right after his first performance of THE LOVE SONG OF R. BUCKMINSTER FULLER at the San Francisco Int'l Film Festival. Now (August 2012) Green is about to go on tour with Yo La Tengo to perform the show in other cities. LOVE SONG is an exciting new…

Cinemad: Cam Archer, Braden King, Deborah Stratman
In this accidental ode to Drunk History, Cinemad sits down at the Creative Capital retreat with filmmakers Cam Archer (sober), Braden King (drunk) and Deborah Stratman (drunk) to talk about film, audiences, erasing art, and parking lot power. We were in between a party and a bathroom, and the…

Cinemad: Craig Baldwin
All at once a filmmaker, archivist, culture jammer, exhibitor, teacher and underground film historian, Craig Baldwin is one of the pillars of the experimental film world. As a filmmaker, his landmark TRIBULATION 99 (1991) is a calculated frenzy of reworked found footage layered with every...
-
Cinemad: Vanessa Renwick
Filmmaker Vanessa Renwick takes the term "do-it-yourself" seriously. She has made films since the early 1980s, and we mean made them: writing, filming, editing, and even processing the film by hand. 30 years and films and videos later, she has created portraits of people, life and landscapes…

Cinemad: Rooftop Films
Rooftop Films is a non-profit organization doing shows every summer in New York and Brooklyn on rooftops and in other interesting outdoor settings, since 1997. But they go beyond showing old classics and push the programming to include tons of shorts, new indie films and experimental works, plus...

-
Cinemad: The Zellner Brothers
From their homes in Austin, TX, David and Nathan Zellner have been making weird and funny films since the 1990s. Their first two features PLASTIC UTOPIA and FRONTIER were extremely under the radar, even for film festivals. Then they went on a long run of making entertaining shorts starting around...
-
Cinemad: Ken Jacobs
What to say about Ken Jacobs? An avant-garde film legend from his early epic film STAR SPANGLED TO DEATH to his Nervous Magic Lantern live performances. Even at just 40 minutes, his new film SEEKING THE MONKEY KING is another epic, combining strong political statements with his incredible use of...
-
Cinemad: James Fotopoulos
Filmmaker James Fotopoulos helped me coin the term 'avant gutter' - too dirty for the art world, too existential for the genre film world. That was an immediate reaction - James' films have actually played at tons of film festivals and in museums and galleries over the past decade, having made…

Cinemad: Bobcat Goldthwait
You may know Bobcat from his long standup comedy career, his many acting roles from the 1980s and 90s, or that time he set a couch on fire. But Cinemad is more interested in the films he has written and/or directed over the past decade. Mixing a real underground, independent film vibe with some...
-
