Defying the Odds: How
CLIKA Broke the Netflix Top 10
Brad loves "little films that could" stories. He loves underdog indies. So when Brad's producing partner "accidentally" invited him to see a little film that was acquired by SONY on the SONY lot in the John Singleton Theater, well...curiosity ensued. But what unfolded inside the John Singleton Theater was something else entirely: a cinematic lightning strike. Within minutes, this unknown film proved to be one of the most culturally vital releases since Boyz n the Hood. That film is CLIKA. Fresh off a nationwide theatrical run and now exploding into Netflix's Top 10, it is living in a "zeitgeist" moment. In this episode, Brad sits down with CLIKA's filmmakers and one of its stars to break down exactly how they pulled it off.

I Hate Horror! Scream Queens and Storytellers
Brad hates HORROR. Okay. He doesn't "hate it", but after decades of teaching teens about "desensitization and violence in the media" and having shot and participated in myriad low budget fare, he's on the fence as to Why SO much HORROR? Why NOW? What's the attraction? Isn't there already enough to scream about? As part of a four part series called "I HATE HORROR" and on the heels of two Oscars for Amy Madigan in WEAPONS and the brilliant work of SINNERS Cinematographer Autumn Durald Arkapaw, Brad heads straight into where the action is (HORROR VIBES COFFEE) and the powerful female creatives bringing these stories to life. Three time Oscar Winner Ve Neill, Producer Trace De La Torre and the ever-changing Susan Ruth share some stories behind their stories. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Or just "enjoy."
