Binge Movie Aftertaste w/ Noah Danby; Reviews of House of Manson and The Monster Squad

Welcome to another edition of the Binge Movie Aftertaste where Jason and I….

Ok, we are a few months shy of celebrating our one year anniversary doing the show, and I have already run out of ways to intro it. Maybe I need more beer. Anyway, this is another action packed show with highlights including Jason and I reviewing some films, a revisit of a childhood favorite, and talking mad shit about Steven Seagal.

Jason and I begin the show by pimping out the Binge Media merchandise store, with Jason saying he is shocked at just how many different types of content the site covers. We then go on to talk about a movie we both watched this week called House of Manson, which is directed by Brandon Slagle. We both decided we liked the movie enough to recommend it with just a few minor quips. Jason then pimps out a movie which has a whopping 56% on Rotten Tomatoes called Infini.

We then get Noah Danby on the line. And what an interview he turns out to be.  He starts off talking about what it was like working on shows like Smallville, with an interesting bit on how the leads of these shows are kind of supposed to be the ring leaders. We then move on to when Danby worked on the Steven Seagal film Exit Wounds. Let’s just say we will never look at car windows the same again. Jason even adds a bit about how Seagal was supposed to work with Lance Henriksen, only to have Seagal put the kabosh on it.

Danby has much better things to say about Vin Diesel, who he worked with on the 2013 science fiction film Riddick. Diesel turned out to be a hell of a producer and star, taking his entire crew out to dinner prior to shooting. A pet project of Diesel’s, Danby reveals he remained a nice guy despite constantly fighting for the Riddick vision to remain. And then we proceed to talk even more shit about Steven Seagal.

All this plus Noah’s grand King of Hollywood vision, what Jason can expect when he finally picks back up on Danby’s show Defiance, what it was like meeting people like Arnold Schwarzenegger (complete with a fantastic impression) and Nicolas Winding Refn, and so much more. Thanks again to Noah for a hell of an interview, and he is invited back anytime.

From here, and after talking even more shit about Steven Seagal, Jason and I bring up 1987’s The Monster Squad, as I decided to revisit it in light of the backlash I received from my recent Grumblings column that mentioned it as a movie which hasn’t aged well. Somehow, this conversation moved on to discussions about Iron Man 3, Josh Trank, Jason’s review of the new Vacation movie, and we conclude by talking about remakes, as well as even more pimping of the site. Because, we are great employees.
