Episode 138: Phil Mucci

On this episode of The Bonus Material Podcast, Thom Carnell & Langley J West talk with filmmaker, Phil Mucci. Phil is probably best known for his having made the "Spit Out the Bone" video for Metallica, but his work goes much, much deeper than that. From his first film, THE LISTENING DEAD, through a series of music videos for bands like Opeth, Huntress, Disturbed, Monster Magnet, and Korn, we look at Phil's career and his philosophies on filmmaking. Of course, we also go over some news and make a few recommendations.
