Episode notes
The Lost Boys
We have the magnificent director Maggie Levin (Blumhouse’s Into the Dark: My Valentine, Miss 2059) on the show to discuss Joel Schumacher’s vampire-classic, The Lost Boys. Maggie and April chat about making genre films on a shoestring budget. Maggie takes us through the laborious and often entertaining process of the “name clearance phase” of filmmaking. And she emphasizes the necessity of talented actors to make a quality film.
You can watch Into the Dark: My Valentine on Hulu now.
And if you haven’t seen The Lost Boys…get to it!
With April Wolfe and Maggie Levin.
