Listen now
Description
Through the late 80s-early 90s, Chris Frieri made micro-budget movies using his friends and local bands to star. Two of them, The Orbitrons  and I Was a Teenage Mummy, made the rounds in the world of bootlegs, eventually earning mentions in the cult movie bible, Psychotronic Magazine. He's now working on restoring the films, as well as others he's made, and making them available digitally. We talk about his early influences, late night horror movies on TV, and the process of learning to make movies by just making them. We also talk about the importance of "throwing your life away on something." Find Chris here: Ghost Limb Films on Vimeo Ghost Limb Films on Facebook
