This week’s episode of the BSME Awards-nominated Empire Podcast had better not be the episode that the BSME Awards judging panel listens to ahead of voting, or our nomination might be rescinded. Which is to say, chaos reigns as Chris Hewitt returns — eventually, after being waylaid by a McQ&A — to the hosting chair, and is joined by Helen O’Hara, James Dyer and, for a limited time only, Nick de Semlyen for another carnage-filled edition of your favourite film podcast.
Outside of the podbooth shenanigans, our brilliant guests on this week’s show are a cracking pair of pairs. First up, Chris sits down with Matthew Rhys and Rosamund Pike to talk about their blistering new psychodrama Hallow Road [20:52 — 40:35 approx], before continuing in the horror/thriller vein by having a natter with Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein, the very talented directors behind the riotously entertaining new Final Destination movie, Bloodlines [1:02:24 — 1:18:50 approx]. Back in the podbooth then, all hell breaks loose as the team talk about movies only they love, a busy week for movie news — including new Superman and Nobody 2 trailers, The Hunger Games: Sunrise On The Reaping castings, Netflix’s new heist movie Here Comes The Flood, and more — and review Final Destination Bloodlines, Hallow Road, and The Marching Band. Oh, and there’s a spelling bee that exudes some serious little D energy. Enjoy! Vote for us!
