We hereby call to order the first meeting of the How NOT To Make A Movie Podcast’s SHAUN OF THE DEAD FAN CLUB! How’s that for a SLICE OF FRIED GOLD? Leading today’s meeting will be our guest writer and entertainment journalist CLARK COLLIS author of the definitive (and only as far as we know) book about the making of Shaun Of The Dead, “YOU’VE GOT RED ON YOU“.
While we’re on the subject, Clark’s book is terrific! It’s chock-a-block with incredible detail about not just a seminal horror-comedy (not a crowded field) but it’s auteur – EDGAR WRIGHT.
This could just as easily be the first meeting of the Edgar Wright Fan Club, too. Synthesizing the COEN BROTHERS (especially RAISING ARIZONA), MARTIN SCORSESE and QUENTIN TARANTINO, Wright walks onto a movie set the movie already envisioned inside his head. His task: convey that vision to the craftspeople collaborating with him. Clearly, he’s figured out how to do that (and it took figuring out as our conversation will detail). Wright has a distinct visual style that’s visceral, driven and irresistible.
His film making finger is always measuring the movie’s pulse.
Or showing us a character’s literal thought process as they puzzle out a solution to the zombie problem bearing down on them.
So, if you’re already a hard core Shaun Of The Dead fan, or just a casual admirer, grab a chair and settle in. This one bites deeply into the flesh.
But, you know what they say: “Safety first, Shaun!”
