interview Archives - One of Us

Writer/director duo Jen and Sylvia Soska aka the Twisted Twins have gone from unknown underground exploitation revivalists on Dead Hooker in a Trunk, to being lauded as the new Cronenberg(s) for American Mary, and this summer they resurrect a studio slasher with See No Evil 2. Richard caught up with them at Texas Frightmare Weekend, […]

Heather Donahue, Joshua Leonard, and Michael C. Williams are the stars of one of the biggest, most influential indie horror films of all time. But the cast of The Blair Witch Project haven’t been lauded with the same plaudits that went to a Peter Cushing or a Lon Chaney Jr. In a very frank and […]

From arranging his own execution in Maniac to orchestrating the zombie hordes in Day of the Dead, if it can bleed, break, be eviscerated or decapitated, Tom Savini was the madman that designed the makeup effects. He chatted with Richard at Texas Frightmare Weekend about his career in mayhem: Surprise, there’s a lot more about […]

Matt Sadler is the Very Model of a Modern Major Austin Comedian. Beau got a chance to sit down with Matt (who you might remember from podcasts of yore) to chat about his own podcast (which he co-helms with Charlie Hodge), coming up the ranks in the comedy clubs of Austin and humor afloat on […]

Chris got a chance to hang out in a (noisy) hotel lobby with up and coming stand-up Erik Charles Nielsen, who you may not know (yet) from his act, but you DO know from the show “Community” where he plays the character of Garrett Lambert. Erik and Chris get all up into the techniques of […]

Andy Kindler is a giant among comedians. It’s a shame more of you non-comedian types don’t know that fact. Beau got a chance to sit down with this walking encyclopedia of the current state of comedy (Andy gives the state of the industry speech every year at Montreal’s Just For Laughs Festival) to talk about […]

W. Kamau Bell is renowned for his trenchant observations on social and political issues, razor keen commentary on race and for hosting the late lamented (and wickedly hilarious) Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell on FX…but really, what’s his favorite superhero movie? Join Beau on location at the Moontower Comedy and Oddity Fest as he […]

Not only did Brian and Chris score a chance to sit down and talk with the legendary actor Ron Perlman, but we even got to do it as a generalized look at his work and career (as opposed to ANOTHER one of those same ol’-same ol’ q&a sessions about his new film). We can’t tell […]

Legend. It’s a word possibly overused in a culture of hyper-nostalgia. It’s also a totally rad fantasy movie from director Ridley Scott. But there again, you see my point. Still, if any man qualifies as a legend, it has to be Fred “The Hammer” Williamson. Hammer was a staple of the blaxploitation genre with standout […]

The reason we created our interview series OneOfUs. SHOW was to highlight folks with interesting passions as well as those with interesting professions. All the better is when those two spheres overlap in as significant a way as they have for poster artist Zach Martin. Zach is the graphic artist for Dragon’s Lair Comics & Fantasy, […]

One year ago, I was sitting in the lobby of The Four Seasons hotel waiting to interview Looper director Rian Johnson during Fantastic Fest. While prepping, I struck up a conversation with a very energetic, intelligent young man who, after a few minutes, I recognized as actor Noah Segan. I had just seen Noah as […]

The fest keeps on rolling, and we’re doing our best to make it out alive. That sentiment is oddly appropriate considering this latest installment of Infestation: Fantastic Fest. Chris got a chance to sit down and have a fun conversation with the director, Randy Moore, and the cinematographer, Lucas Lee Graham, for the surrealistic and […]

This time around, Chris and Martin take the reins of One of Us. Show, talking to Caleb Zammit, certainly one of the most devoted geeks we’ve yet to meet. Caleb is a toy collector…and by that I mean he’s got ALL the toys. Everything that came out before 1990 or so, anyways. His collection is SO […]

For the sophomore installment of our swanky new geeky interview series, we are joined by You’re Next‘s Barbara Crampton and A.J. Bowen. Barbara and A.J. are both quite at home in the horror genre, Barbara in films like Re-Animator and From Beyond and A.J. in House of the Devil and The Signal. Instead of asking […]
