Sam Peckinpah embodies the essence of what the Kill or Be Killed project is all about like no other filmmaker. Bleak, nihilistic and brutal, Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia is a relentless journey through the dark landscapes of Mexico following the grisly journey of a desperate man expertly portrayed by Warren Oates. From top to bottom excellent performances are logged in by Oates, Isela Vega, Robert Weber and Kris Kristofferson.

EWB 382 DAVID LYNCH EPISODE PAUL ALOISIO

David Lynch was a once in a generation artist with a unique vision. His work touches something deep if you are receptive to it and you can experience a full range of humanity within his films and music. He created epics of pure emotion be it horror, love, fear and desire. Paul Aloisio and I ruminate on his work as a tribute to the maestro.
