This week, I’m joined by Bobby Miller, the writer/director of The Cleanse, to talk about the film’s long and winding path to a Blu-ray release. (You can buy it at Amazon or for five bucks less at the great DiabolikDVD.) We discussed getting that film made, the struggle to secure a release, and why owning a physical copy of a movie packed with special features like commentary tracks and making-of docs is a real thrill for a filmmaker who grew up absorbing the extras on features like Boogie Nights. We also discussed his voice-directing and editing work and why he wrote a novel. If you enjoyed this episode, please check out Bobby’s movie. (And his Substack!) And make sure to share it with a friend!
Very enjoyable episode and whole heartedly agree that owning a hard copy of a movie soehow makkes it more real. Now, if could have one movie wish come true is for Disney to put the original Star Wars release(not one of Georges remaes) out in theaters and special editions out on DVD-Blu-ray.
Ok!!! I’m going back to buying DVDs and Blu-ray. I don’t know what happened to me. I must have lost my mind …. I love all that content and … MOVIE INFORMATION! Insight. Behind the scene looks at what I so love …. Tra-la!!
Thank you, Sonny!
