  Yes, Cinema Yugen, welcome back everybody.
• 0:22
  My guest today is Corey Deanne Cowley, who was raised by her mother Lisa in
• 0:29
  suburbia, raised in what would become her hometown of Hendersonville.
• 0:34
  Cowley spent a majority of her childhood obsessed with any and everything dark.

  With her primary focus on horror, she is known for Forest Hills,

  Dead Woods, and more grindhouse titles such as Tri-pop-a-phobic Possession.

  and extreme styles Cowley is not afraid to push the

  envelope known for utilizing taboo elements

  we will put the links to that in our imdb in the
• 1:51
  description cory you like all things dark
• 1:54
  tell us about the glories of darkness well
• 1:58
  so i started out as a writer i published
• 2:01
  two books and a lot of my origins started in creative writing and theater and
• 2:08
  so when i was growing up i i wrote a lot of short stories and poetry and then
• 2:14
  that kind of led into writing the two novels that i have and so,
• 2:20
  my first film growing up was hellraiser that was the first film i ever saw when
• 2:25
  i was three years old yeah i know you weren't a my little pony kind of girl.
• 2:32
  I mean wait a minute hang on my little pony is amazing first of all.
• 2:38
  But yeah hellraiser was one of the first films that i saw that i really really
• 2:42
  really just absolutely fell in love with and so it kind of led me down the avenue
• 2:47
  of getting a little bit interested into the process behind makeup and stuff and so it is,
• 2:53
  Gary Tunnicliffe is actually a huge inspiration for me just because,
• 2:58
  you know, he was the first person to teach me about nerneys.
• 3:02
  And I just, I've just always been obsessed with everything kind of macabre and
• 3:08
  grotesque ever since I was like a little wee little lass.
• 3:13
  That's lovely. It's great to see the, did you see this? You've obviously seen the substance, yeah?
• 3:20
  You know what? I have not seen the substance yet. But I know,
• 3:24
  I know, I know, I know, I know.
• 3:27
  You're the one guest I thought she'd be telling me, oh, the substance is gold.
• 3:32
  I've seen it 50 times already.
• 3:34
  But I won't lie to you, though. I have looked at some scenes on YouTube,
• 3:37
  and I love what I've seen so far.
• 3:39
  But I haven't seen it all the way through yet. Well, you're in for a surprise. It's great.
• 3:44
  It's as if David Cronenberg had directed Death Becomes Her. It's fantastic.
• 3:49
  But without a comedy. Although there is, you know, some ironic laughs, I think. Okay.
• 3:56
  But I definitely think it's Demi's year. She's won the Globe.
• 3:59
  I think that she might be in line for the Academy Award.
• 4:04
  Horror is always a dependable genre, and especially in the independent world, it's very...
• 4:13
  I'd say it's easy, but it's a little bit easier to sell a horror film,
• 4:18
  wouldn't you say, than another genre.
• 4:21
  I think as far as selling distribution-wise, absolutely, 100%.
• 4:26
  It's so much easier to sell a horror than it is a comedy.
• 4:30
  I mean, it's just—horror is so in right now. So in.
• 4:35
  Being into effects, you must be also a disciple of Tom Savini, yeah?
• 4:41
  Absolutely. i think i've worked with
• 4:44
  more of his graduates than anybody
• 4:47
  in the special effects makeup world wow yeah yeah
• 4:51
  one the the one the girl that we hired
• 4:54
  for my tv show for
• 4:57
  screen box the the costume part of the costume creation for that she was a savini
• 5:02
  graduate which i myself am not a savini graduate but i would love maybe somewhere
• 5:07
  down the road when things are not so chaotic i would like to possibly explore
• 5:11
  going to the Savini School and entertaining that.
• 5:15
  Yeah. It would be fantastic just to sit and talk with.
• 5:19
  I mean, what a legacy, what a catalogue, what a guy, what a talent.
• 5:27
  Tremendous, tremendous. It's – I actually knew – I nearly had an interview with
• 5:32
  Tom Savini some time ago.
• 5:34
  And then, you know, I mean, trying to nail people down at certain times is difficult,
• 5:41
  and then time goes by and they go on to different work and it becomes more difficult.
• 5:48
  Absolutely. But you have a lot of films upcoming.
• 5:53
  You're the first person I've ever met that's played a sperm monster,
• 5:57
  is your credit. Taliesis.
• 6:02
  Which seems which seems ironic because we're all
• 6:05
  kind of actually sperm monsters or the sperm monsters that survived
• 6:08
  or made it so to speak you know
• 6:14
  what i am really proud of this film for a multitude
• 6:17
  of reasons i'm not sure if you've watched it yeah i know
• 6:19
  i know they're they're doing pre-sales now for some of
• 6:22
  the blu-rays and fallacies was
• 6:25
  the first film that i i had of challenge directing and writing the story for
• 6:29
  i initially wanted to go in a comedic route for my segment but you know jim
• 6:36
  my husband we kind of did like a rehearsal of it and it didn't really flow that
• 6:40
  well so i kind of went back to doing what i initially wanted to do which was like,
• 6:44
  a j-horror inspired segment which j-horror is kind of my pole star in case you weren't sure.
• 6:53
  And we it i am
• 6:56
  not i'm only in it for like 10 seconds jim is
• 7:00
  mostly in it obviously since he's a man and it
• 7:03
  just was really it you know what i'm
• 7:06
  so proud of how much publicity this
• 7:09
  movie has gotten it's just it's like a different mix of
• 7:12
  just you know dark humor body horror
• 7:15
  fantasy thriller it's it's like it's
• 7:18
  it's everything it really is i think everybody in this movie did a phenomenal
• 7:23
  job across the board i couldn't be more proud and i'm very proud of this guy
• 7:28
  sitting across from me because his penis stars in it jim's looking at me like you bitch.
• 7:38
  Hey look everyone wants to be a star everyone wants to be a rock star everyone
• 7:42
  wants to be a I'm a movie star.
• 7:44
  Shouldn't shake your head, my friend. You should be like, yeah,
• 7:47
  I'm a movie star, man. Don't.
• 7:50
  You see? Andre, park the car, you know.
• 7:56
  Yeah. Take my fur coat and I'll see you after the premiere.
• 8:02
  But you have a lot. You have so much in various stages of pre-production, post-production.
• 8:10
  Is there is there some other films that you've got coming that you'd like to,
• 8:14
  or things that you haven't developed that you'd like to tell our audience about
• 8:18
  i do i do i have a i have this it's probably the biggest well besides devour
• 8:25
  devour is slated to come out this october which that film's fucking crazy i'm
• 8:31
  sure you've seen the trailer for it It's insane.
• 8:34
  It's insane. My character, you won't forget it. I'll just put it that way.
• 8:41
  But besides that, I'm really excited because I'm doing a limited TV show for Screambox.
• 8:50
  I can't say what my involvement is with it yet. Okay.
• 8:54
  But I am a big part of it. And we're really excited, too, because,
• 8:59
  you know, we've got the creative team from Terrifier.
• 9:04
  Casey Hartnett is in it, who was in Terrifier 2.
• 9:07
  Our casting agent, Matthew Maisto, he's a big part of it.
• 9:13
  Tony Walsh is also a big part of it, who was our executive producer.
• 9:18
  And then Dennis Calo and Bethany Watson, who are my directors.
• 9:23
  We've just, we've done a, I really wish I could talk about it more,
• 9:26
  but I just, I legally can't, but oh my God. That's okay.
• 9:31
  Look, a teaser trailer is just as good. I mean, it's, it's fun.
• 9:37
  It's absolutely incredible when they bring out trailers these days, don't you think?
• 9:41
  And then five minutes later, there's 50 videos on YouTube Everyone has dissected
• 9:46
  every single frame of a minute and 30 seconds, which is absolutely incredible.
• 9:53
  I saw a breakdown of the Fantastic Four trailer, which only goes for a minute
• 9:57
  and 34 or 35 seconds, but someone had made a 22-minute video breaking down that
• 10:03
  minute and 34 seconds, which is incredible.
• 10:06
  Really? Staggering. That is staggering. The first thing that comes to mind is
• 10:11
  this fellow has nothing better to do. No.
• 10:15
  No. Do you have a job, sir? I mean, one could say, yeah, he really loves the
• 10:19
  Fantastic Four and he's really excited.
• 10:21
  But getting 22 minutes out of a minute and 34 seconds is commendable, if anything.
• 10:32
  Yeah i just i i have a lot of stuff kind of
• 10:35
  in pre-production right now like on listed on my imdb i
• 10:38
  have to go to new york later this year and we're
• 10:41
  i'm i'm directing and i'm starring in all wound
• 10:44
  scream at once which is it's gonna be just so fucked up i
• 10:47
  mean it's whoo the that
• 10:50
  script is a rough read it's a rough read it's it's
• 10:53
  it's definitely gonna make some people just ill but i'm
• 10:56
  i'm excited for it what were you again when you
• 10:59
  saw hellraiser i was three i was
• 11:02
  three you've it's like the event horizon you've gone
• 11:06
  through the gateway and brought the darkness back with you you
• 11:09
  know i'm not gonna lie to you when some
• 11:12
  when jim's like you want to put on a movie like a romantic movie
• 11:15
  i'm like yeah why event horizon that's beautiful
• 11:22
  that's a real couples film that on it's
• 11:25
  you know what i think there's a lot of just parallels between
• 11:29
  a normal relationship you know strength unity proper communication you're right
• 11:35
  yeah yeah and being tormented by your your dreams so to speak so to speak yeah
• 11:45
  liberate may right oh sorry liberate to me,
• 11:49
  oh you know okay i i couldn't even quote that so you're ahead of me.
• 11:54
  That's okay. But so what do you think, having worked a lot in the genre,
• 12:03
  what do you think are the essential elements for, you know, new and aspiring
• 12:09
  filmmakers that want to make horror movies or movies with a dark heart, so to speak?
• 12:16
  What do you think are the key elements to make a good horror movie,
• 12:21
  scary movie? I think the first thing...
• 12:25
  The first thing is an open mind. You have to have an open mind,
• 12:30
  I think, if you're going into it with too much of a, am I going to be,
• 12:37
  you know, am I going to get a strike against me for this?
• 12:39
  Am I going to look a certain way for doing this? I think I don't think you really can do horror.
• 12:46
  Now, there are I think there's certain degrees of horror in terms of,
• 12:50
  you know, just kind of the gore and whatnot and stuff.
• 12:54
  But I think for the most part, you really have to have an open mind and you
• 12:57
  kind of have to accept the fact that, you know, not everyone's going to like it.
• 13:02
  I mean, that can be said about said about every genre.
• 13:04
  You know, there's certain things for people and certain things not. But yeah.
• 13:08
  I think, too, that a lot of the horror films that I do, I like to kind of have a full arc.
• 13:16
  I like to have a full story, no matter how, you know, disgusting or no matter
• 13:20
  how, excuse me, you know, dark it gets.
• 13:24
  I think a story is, you know, open mind, a good story, strong actors who are
• 13:30
  really willing to get in there and just kind of, you know, give it their all,
• 13:35
  you know, because it can be a demanding genre.
• 13:39
  There have certainly been instances that
• 13:42
  i've i've been in short films and i've i've definitely
• 13:46
  saw should i go to therapy for this like do
• 13:49
  i need therapy do i need do i need to seek out
• 13:52
  someone for what i have just done but well
• 13:55
  confession yeah yeah let's make
• 13:59
  my friend my friend my friend maybe
• 14:02
  one of these days i'll kind of delve into the things that i've seen
• 14:05
  and done but yeah just a really open
• 14:08
  mind and just just you know
• 14:11
  it's like I think a lot of people have this thing where they feel like especially
• 14:17
  with horror they have to outdo someone else because they feel like everything's
• 14:23
  been done before and I've even fallen into that trap where I've I've been like
• 14:27
  well I'm gonna do this and outdo someone because this was gross so I'm gonna I go,
• 14:31
  just forget that and just make a good story.
• 14:35
  Just make a good story, you know, and, and, and make sure your actors are,
• 14:39
  you know, a hundred percent and put their heart and soul into it.
• 14:42
  And you should be, you should be fine.
• 14:45
  And it's, it's, I think imperative that the, the cast be, as you say,
• 14:51
  solid actors, because if they're not, you don't really care whether they get killed or not. No, no.
• 15:00
  I mean, because let's face it, in a good horror movie, you want,
• 15:06
  if you have endeared yourself at all, to any of the cast...
• 15:11
  Hoping that they survive or live or overcome.
• 15:16
  I mean, if it's Veronica Cartwright and Alien, then they got to go.
• 15:21
  I'm sorry. They got to go.
• 15:24
  Veronica Cartwright and Alien, hands down one of the most annoying fucking characters
• 15:28
  ever. But God, she did it so well. I can't be mad at her for that.
• 15:33
  Yeah, I mean, look, it works the other way around too.
• 15:36
  If someone, you know, is purposefully or written purposefully to be that character,
• 15:43
  like, geez, I hope he gets it next or they get it first or, you know.
• 15:51
  Or their death is, you know, one of those, like in those movies where the deaths
• 15:55
  get incredibly inventive, you know, like in a Saw movie or something like that.
• 16:00
  They don't just have a complicated get their throat cut or their head cut off.
• 16:05
  Exactly. on a meat hook or something they get an
• 16:08
  elaborate death where there's a timer hooked up to them and if they
• 16:12
  try to stand up they're you know or or
• 16:15
  maggots in the vagina yeah i
• 16:19
  i've done that i've done that well lucky i've had my breakfast i'm sorry you
• 16:31
  know hey listen listen i i've told you We've got to have a separate conversation
• 16:35
  about the films I've done.
• 16:40
  Wow. Maggots. Yeah. Part of your complete breakfast, ladies and gentlemen.
• 16:47
  Corey, a link to all Corey stuff is in the description, plus her website.
• 16:54
  Corey, there is a great revolution, I believe, happening at the moment in independent cinema.
• 17:00
  I believe that there is great originality, great vitality, and it's all coming
• 17:08
  out of independent movies as the major studios seem content to play.
• 17:15
  Just reproduce everything in their catalog and make a sequel or a prequel or
• 17:21
  a prequel or whatever out of it.
• 17:25
  I mean, for God's sake, they're doing a sequel to Romy and Michelle's high school
• 17:28
  reunion. Are they really? Yeah.
• 17:32
  Yeah. It's the sequel. You never knew you wanted Romy and Michelle to their
• 17:39
  back. It's instead of the 20th high school reunion, it's the 40th and everyone's older.
• 17:45
  Cool that's so cool and there'll be wine and cheese retirement village after
• 17:50
  the reunion i mean i'm not gonna lie i would go to the retirement village for
• 17:55
  wine and cheese but you know that's that's just me.
• 18:00
  How do you feel about the state of independent cinema corey going strong getting
• 18:04
  stronger i think it's it's going going strong and definitely going stronger
• 18:09
  terrifier three just kind of blew the fucking door open as far as independent
• 18:14
  film really getting to a point where i mean,
• 18:19
  holy fuck they just they i mean independent film
• 18:22
  was already you know gaining traction and in cinema
• 18:25
  but then because of that movie forget it
• 18:28
  now everyone's putting all all their
• 18:31
  eggs in the indie basket and they should you know
• 18:34
  because like you said with a lot of a lot
• 18:37
  of the higher budget productions they're just kind of invested in
• 18:40
  just making money and and and not really putting
• 18:43
  out something that's that's you know thought-provoking or
• 18:46
  creative or innovative it's just same
• 18:49
  thing over and over again so i think indie right now is chef's kiss i mean it's
• 18:56
  it's sad to think that the epicenter of cinema has abandoned storytelling and
• 19:01
  turned movies into essentially cereal flavors where you can go to the supermarket
• 19:06
  and get your star Wars flavored cereal,
• 19:08
  your Harry Potter flavored cereal, your, you know, whatever.
• 19:12
  And it looks and smells and tastes the same, but it's not quite. Yeah.
• 19:18
  I also think television too is also want to rise,
• 19:23
  especially with Shogun coming out, which my God,
• 19:28
  what a, what an incredible series, but you know,
• 19:31
  TV right now is I there's
• 19:35
  so Many good TV series out right now Too
• 19:38
  so it's very interesting how The tides have kind
• 19:41
  of changed Yeah well I
• 19:43
  I think it's I think You know as they say in Most things in culture comes In
• 19:50
  waves and You know I just I just think it's It's time because once once something
• 19:56
  Or once the mainstream Gets stale everyone goes looking for a different,
• 20:02
  You know, something different, you know. I mean, it's like there are upteen
• 20:06
  Chinese restaurants, you know, in a row.
• 20:10
  Yeah. But as much as you feel like Chinese food, you don't want something that's generic.
• 20:16
  Right. You don't want something that's – look, it may be generic as far as the recipe is the same,
• 20:22
  but something that's made in a sort of a chain Chinese restaurant as opposed
• 20:28
  to a little store in an alley where there's an old man who's been cooking it
• 20:32
  for years is going to taste different to,
• 20:37
  I suppose, Panda Express is probably relevant there.
• 20:43
  That's a good example. Yeah. I mean, and that's how I kind of feel.
• 20:46
  Hollywood has become like the Panda Express of cinema.
• 20:52
  And independent cinema has become like those little hole in the wall places where,
• 20:59
  yes, we do serve Chinese food, but it's not, you know, it doesn't come all pre-packaged
• 21:04
  and we just throw it into a microwave and then give it to you. It has less MSG.
• 21:10
  Yeah, that's true.
• 21:12
  Or enough MSG to kill a small horse.
• 21:15
  But, yeah, it's shocking, but it gives me great hope.
• 21:21
  I've been very fortunate since doing this to see so many, so many,
• 21:27
  one after the other, after the other, independent movies that I probably might
• 21:32
  not have seen otherwise.
• 21:34
  Oh, absolutely.
• 21:36
  Mainly because the sad part of it is some of them really struggle to find distribution,
• 21:43
  particularly the ones that do not have,
• 21:46
  you know, an actor that people know to stick on the poster or,
• 21:50
  you know, something to that effect. And it's sad because they are like your
• 21:55
  films. They're really well written. They're made with passion.
• 21:59
  They're okay. They don't have a marketable name to put on the advertising.
• 22:06
  I think that's something too that's really interesting that you just said is I,
• 22:13
  one thing that I would like to see though, So my only complaint about indie,
• 22:20
  and I'm probably going to get a lot of shit for saying this,
• 22:23
  but I would like to see a little more diversity in terms of actors and actresses
• 22:28
  because I do see a lot of the same actors and actresses kind of cast along the board.
• 22:35
  And they are talented, but I do think, though, that taking a chance on someone
• 22:41
  who is less known, you can really yield some incredible results when you take that chance.
• 22:49
  No, no. Look, you're not Robinson Crusoe on that island. I totally agree.
• 22:53
  I have seen just over the last year performances of actors, male,
• 22:59
  female, and otherwise, in every genre, and these people, sometimes it's their first film.
• 23:05
  Yeah and they are incredible they're just as good i i watched a short well not
• 23:12
  a short film i watched an independent film the other day i don't know if you've
• 23:14
  seen it's called cold wallet,
• 23:16
  no i haven't it is if you can see it check it out it really should be playing
• 23:22
  at a cinema near you it's so smart it's so well made it's an independent movie.
• 23:30
  But all of the performances, the photography, editing, the score,
• 23:37
  top shelf. You wouldn't know that it was independent movie watching it, you know. Yeah.
• 23:44
  Just, yeah, so good. Yes, some of the faces you have seen before in bit parts,
• 23:51
  but otherwise, in a starring role,
• 23:55
  you know, Some people work so hard to get a shot, just like your husband wants to be a movie star.
• 24:04
  And some people absolutely give it all and never get a shot.
• 24:09
  So I love seeing it when people who have wanted so badly to be the lead in any movie get their shot.
• 24:17
  And I tell you what, they leave it all on film. They don't phone it in.
• 24:21
  Oh, yeah. They don't come at it, you know, half-arsed and say,
• 24:26
  well, you know, I'm an actress.
• 24:28
  That means someone just stands off camera with all my lines written on a card.
• 24:32
  And I just, it gives an immediacy to my performance because it sounds like I'm
• 24:36
  saying it for the first time when in fact I am.
• 24:41
  A card. They're trying to brand out their way through it. I was just thinking
• 24:45
  of that too. I was thinking to myself, how did he?
• 24:50
  Yeah, must be nice. Hey, look,
• 24:53
  if I was famous enough to be paid $3 million to read my lines off a card and
• 25:00
  have it be as convincing as any of the great performances in cinema...
• 25:09
  I'd i'd i'd ponder it i mean i wouldn't
• 25:12
  immediately say no no no no
• 25:16
  i don't think i'd immediately say no either it's just i'm
• 25:19
  thinking about i mean if my personality had
• 25:22
  that kind of clout you know what i mean like right like
• 25:25
  you're just so compelling on screen you could sit there in
• 25:28
  your underwear and do nothing and people would show up you know
• 25:31
  what i mean well i'm also thinking too long term
• 25:34
  you know giving myself some brain exercise to prevent
• 25:37
  alzheimer's but maybe i think i think i'm the only one that thinks
• 25:40
  of that just i i like
• 25:43
  doing auditions because it's a way for me to kind of use
• 25:46
  my brain so i'm like all right i'm one step closer to
• 25:48
  preventing alzheimer's and dementia and i
• 25:51
  look practice makes perfect so many so many
• 25:55
  people in this business get a shot and then they rest on that they go well i've
• 26:00
  i've got this this will now be the generator for more work but especially actors
• 26:06
  you really i mean just getting a couple of decent credits you can't really rest
• 26:11
  on that because while you're sitting around.
• 26:14
  Waiting for the next job there are a lot of hungry actors out
• 26:17
  there as they say the wolf on the hill is not as
• 26:20
  hungry as the wolf climbing the hill and i've
• 26:23
  never heard that before i like that you can very easily
• 26:27
  get passed by in any industry by people
• 26:31
  who are simply hungrier than you oh 100
• 26:34
  to get to get not necessarily to get above you but to get to the next level
• 26:39
  whatever that might whatever that level may be to them whether that's being
• 26:43
  in a film that is commercially released being a film that's released at all
• 26:47
  being a film that they've always wanted to make short film or feature doesn't matter.
• 26:53
  You know yourself making short films is
• 26:56
  a great proving ground not just for your ideas but
• 26:59
  to to further your experience true
• 27:01
  oh a hundred percent and even
• 27:05
  as an actor you know i have
• 27:08
  a manager now matt i have a manager now when
• 27:12
  i finally finally have
• 27:15
  an agent kim mccray which i just got on
• 27:17
  friday which i'm very excited about there you go you
• 27:20
  know even with that don't forget when you get
• 27:23
  famous oh my god you're so sweet thank
• 27:26
  you but yeah no trust me i'm i'm just
• 27:29
  a regular guinea pig mama that's it but you
• 27:32
  know even with that i still i still actively every day wake up and i and i go
• 27:37
  through and i try and find roles and stuff but i i have such a high standard
• 27:43
  for how i want to be and i don't know i love horror but i don't necessarily
• 27:48
  want to pigeonhole myself into one particular genre.
• 27:52
  I'll go out of my way and I'll try and find roles that to kind of force myself
• 27:59
  into doing something that I'm
• 28:00
  not really comfortable with, because I think that's the best way to learn.
• 28:04
  And it's, it's fun. You know, I like that challenge. I do.
• 28:09
  I think, I think that, you know, especially as an actor, you got to try and
• 28:15
  switch it up a little bit. But otherwise, you're just going to get bored.
• 28:17
  And like you said, you're going to get so content resting on those two credits
• 28:21
  that you only specifically search for this one thing.
• 28:27
  Whereas there's another thing that you could potentially be good at.
• 28:31
  It's just you don't go for it because you're like, well, I have these two credits.
• 28:35
  So this is what I'm good at. So I'm not going to pursue this.
• 28:38
  And I think that's the biggest affront you can do to yourself, especially as an actor.
• 28:42
  So what what types of what other
• 28:45
  types of films outside of the horror genre are you interested in
• 28:49
  exploring like uh during the drama honestly
• 28:53
  history i love history i'm obsessed with history i would love to portray some
• 29:01
  kind of historical person i don't know who it would be i don't know really who
• 29:06
  i look like but maybe somebody and then.
• 29:11
  I would really like to do action. I think action would be a lot of fun,
• 29:16
  you know, because I've done minor stunts and roles and stuff for some of the
• 29:20
  films that I've done, but I think it'd be so fun to just do kind of like a predator type thing,
• 29:29
  you know, something really cool. Yeah.
• 29:32
  Maybe Terminator. You could very, look, you're a very talented writer,
• 29:36
  director, actor, everything, you could create your own...
• 29:41
  Like a Resident Evil, and you could be the new Milo Jovovich of the series.
• 29:48
  That would actually be really cool. You could be the new Alice.
• 29:55
  That would be awesome. I wish I could do – obviously, I don't have the money
• 30:01
  for it, and I would need so many permits and permissions and stuff,
• 30:05
  but I would love to do a perfect dark film.
• 30:09
  I don't know if you remember that game from the 10th century.
• 30:10
  I do remember that game, yeah.
• 30:12
  Yeah, I would love to do Perfect Dark. I always wanted to cosplay Joanna Dark, but my hair's too long.
• 30:19
  But still, you know, I could get it in a wig or something.
• 30:22
  So maybe she grows her hair out. That cosplaying stuff is hardcore.
• 30:27
  Yeah, it really is. That's a hardcore thing. I watched a documentary once about
• 30:31
  cosplayers, and I had no idea how it's aboded and serious.
• 30:37
  And you know i
• 30:40
  mean it's taking dress-ups to a new level i think
• 30:43
  the closest i've come to cosplay was cosplaying marge goopman from halloween
• 30:48
  3 season of the witch they're territorial too they fight yeah yeah they do they
• 30:54
  fight they and they complain about if you dress up as a certain character oh
• 30:58
  you forgot the boots those aren't accurate screen accurate boots you're wearing there.
• 31:05
  Sounds like a real problem there are gumboots with a bit of paint is all I could afford I'm sorry,
• 31:13
  I'll do better next time.
