Bonus Episode: Interview with director Brian Trenchard-Smith (DEAD END DRIVE-IN, TURKEY SHOOT)

Our #SciFiJuly Presents #DystopianSummer continues with an interview with DEAD END DRIVE-IN director Brian Trenchard-Smith! From the beginnings with the script to the purchase of the movie by New World Pictures at the Cannes Film Festival, Brian tells us all about the journey of his film, while also telling tales about a few of his other films, including DAY OF THE PANTHER and THE MAN FROM HONG KONG! Perhaps fittingly, Brian spoke to us while sitting outside during a heat wave, but that didn't damper his spirits as he told us about the importance of having a good mechanic, gave a sweet eulogy to the late, great Grant Page, broke down the MAD MAX franchise, and described how they shot two stunt sequences for DEAD END DRIVE-IN on the same day. Don't miss this interview with an exploitation legend!
