Ep 296: Nicholas McCarthy

Filmmaker Nicholas McCarthy (THE PACT, AT THE DEVIL’S DOOR) shares his career journey with Adam, Joe, and Arwen and discusses his new “killer kid” film THE PRODIGY (opening in US theaters this Friday).  From falling in love with Creature Double Feature as a kid… to making short films … to an in-depth nerd-out about aspect ratios… to working with child actors who are performing adult material … this is exactly the kind of filmmaker on filmmaker conversation that you listen to THE MOVIE CRYPT for.  Dr. Arwen weighs in with advice on sales agents and when (if ever) it’s ok to call it quits on a project in her “Hollywood Therapy” segment, Nicholas answers our beloved Crypt Keepers’ “Viewer Mail” questions, and Adam painfully accepts that it’s time to retire the Aerosmith shirt he’s worn since High School.
