Rob Simpson’s podcast Director’s Uncut works in a slightly unusual way. Each week he and one or more guests discuss two pieces of work from one director. In itself that doesn’t sound too unconventional, however the director in question is selected completely at random. During each episode the new name is drawn from a lottery of talent meaning that in the space of a week he can go from discussing a master of horror to an obscure foreign director.
Wes Craven
I’m part of the regular rotation of guests having appeared to discuss Wes Craven, as well as being a regular fixture on the ‘What we’ve been Watching’ segment. For Wes Craven we discussed Last House on the Left and Cursed.
