At long last, here's our episode on 1981's GHOSTKEEPER! If you picked up the Blu-ray from Canadian International Pictures that was released earlier this year, you may have already heard our track discussing the film with Rue Morgue writer, Terror Vision contributor, film programmer, and podcaster Yasmina Ketita! But even if you have, here's a longer version of that recording with even more discussion about Canadian director James Makichuk's debut film, shot on location in Alberta, Canada.

We discuss all the important aspects of the movie: the importance of being grateful for free coffee, difficult monologues, the beauty and terror of Alberta winters, and All-Dressed chips! Also, how exactly does one say, "wendigo?" Erica finds an all-new and unexpected pronunciation! Yasmina dives deep into Makichuk's post-GHOSTKEEPER career! Marc explains how snowmobiles work! Ryan offers his secret to withstanding a long winter! This episode has it all! Listen of we'll sick Georgie Collins on you!

This week on the New World Pictures Podcast, we explore the “hills” of Chicago as seen in this action crime feature 1975's CAPONE, a movie New World Pictures nearly released! Join us as we analyzing its unique (and questionable) perspective and the overwhelming number of characters, spoiler alert, most of whom are barely introduced! Starring Ben Gazzara (SAINT JACK) as a both young and old Al Capone (though, mostly old), Sylvester Stallone (DEATH RACE 2000) as a young and alive Frank Nitti, Susan Blakely as the true Lord of Flatbush, and the greatest name to ever exist in Hollywood, Royal Dano (HOUSE II: THE SECOND STORY) as short term Chicago Mayor Anton J Cermak!

If you love film deep dives into syphilis (and, really, who doesn't?!) and have always wanted to learn more about Marc's eclectic work history, leading into a surprisingly detailed and entertaining look behind the scenes into the pros and cons of being a newspaper delivery boy, from early mornings to the realities of the industry, then you won't want to miss a single minute of this episode. Tune in the to another classic Nearly New World!

Now in it's sixth year, we celebrate Roger Corman's birthday by watching films from his directing history, and this year, we brought in a special guest: filmmaker and author Kier-La Janisse! Kier-La is a badass! Not just because she wrote the book House of Psychotic Women: An Autobiographical Topography of Female Neurosis in Horror and Exploitation Films, or because she directed and produced the documentary WOODLANDS DARK AND DAYS BEWITCHED: A HISTORY OF FOLF HORROR, or even her work for Severin as an editor and producer of special features, but because she joined us from her home in Canada where a windstorm had knocked out her power! Armed with her cellphone and a lantern, she discussed her Roger Corman film selection and discussed her new book, Cockfight: A Fable of Failure, which examines the 1974 Monte Hellman film COCKFIGHTER released by New World Pictures!

They discuss why Kier-La decided to write a book about COCKFIGHTER, why Monte Hellman didn't want her to write one, and the difficulty of getting Ed Begley, Jr. to do an interview! All that plus much, much more, including Roger Corman movie picks from Marc, Erica, and Ryan! What did they choose? You'll have to listen to find out! Happy birthday, Roger!
