EP#309 Writer/Director Travis Bible ("#ChadGetsTheAxe")

Kevin Lane's Spill Your Guts

This episode continues our series of overlooked and underseen films. Last episode we spoke with Michael Bonini, one of the stars of the 2022 influencer-skewering (yep, that’s a pun) “#ChadGetsTheAxe" and in this episode we are joined by the films writer and director, Travis Bible.

Travis explains how a short film version of the feature length film closed the movies financing, how to plot out a well executed jump scare and believe me, this film has some great ones, finding a fair and balanced approach to commenting on influencers and why the film has a title that gives away a rather significant plot point.

There have been many genre films that have examined the role that social media and influencers play in our current media landscape but few have tackled the subject and found why it works in horror as well as “#ChadGetsTheAxe".

There are things far more terrifying for this group of influencers then whether or not followers hit the “Like” button so let’s take a look with writer/director Travis Bible!
