Part of independent filmmaking is figuring out anyway you can achieve your vision. You’re not spending months pitching to major producers for a $100 million budget. In the digital age, you’re just hustling for pals who can act and locations that fit your needs. Plus you might beg mom to make sandwiches for the crew. Blake Eckard is an indie filmmaker who understands the whatever it takes credo. Intensely Independent: The Micro-Budget Films of Blake Eckard brings together two of his films that were made two different ways. Bubba Moon Face was shot over five days. Coyotes Kill for Fun took three years. But what matters is that Blake was able to finish both films and now you watch them both at home when the DVD comes out in September. Here’s the press release from Synapse Films:

Star Wars: Skeleton Crew Introduces a Motley Alien Crew

We recently reviewed Il Tempo del Sogno (Dream Time), a documentary about the last wave of Italian Horror. This period covered the mid-80s to the early ’90s when producers could still get reasonable funding for making horror films. They would easily make deals with distributors around the globe. The documentary makes it a point to start this era with the blockbuster Demons. The film was directed by Lamberto Bava (Shock) and produced by Dario Argento (Susperia) with the men collaborating on the script with two other writers. The movie is about what can go wrong at a sneak preview of a movie. Now you can see the nightmare more vividly with the 4K UHD of Demons: Special Edition.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
