Mockbuster with Anthony Frith | From 80s Phenom to Today
In a special interview, Will chats director Anthony Frith about his upcoming documentary Mockbuster . A once-promising Australian filmmaker, Anthony lands a final shot at glory with Hollywood’s kings of B-movie schlock, the Asylum, the studio behind Sharknado. Tasked with directing a lost-world dinosaur film in suburban Adelaide on a six-day shoot and a shoestring budget, he also turns the camera on himself, filming a behind-the-scenes documentary as the chaos unfolds. Between demanding LA execs, a bewildered cast, and his own creeping self-doubt, both productions push their first-time director to the brink. Mockbuster is a hilarious and unexpectedly tender documentary about chasing the dream through the absurd hustle of genre filmmaking, but finding a different kind of success behind the scenes. 0:00 - Introduction 6:55 - Interview Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/1980snow .
