Bruce Dickinson Returns To Push Your Buttons

Raven shares why he demanded a “warts and all” story when it came to his new documentary, Nevermore: The Raven Effect. He explains how insecurity shaped his early career, what really happened when he walked away from Vince McMahon and the WWF office, and how five minutes of “divine inspiration” created the Raven character. He and filmmaker Geordie Day talk about the wild reality of ECW in the ’90s, and why the Dreamer feud, Sandman storyline, and Crucifixion angle worked so well. Raven also recounts the truth about his relationship with Paul Heyman, his favorite episodic stories from Portland working for the Grappler, the WrestleMania 17 golf-cart fiasco, the frustrations of WCW and the Flock, the real story behind Shane McMahon staying at his house, and the ending beat of the film that Raven loves the most.

Eli Roth returns to break down the launch of his film company Horror Section and how he’s building a place for unrated, no-rules genre movies. He shares the story behind shooting his upcoming horror film Ice Cream Man, why he resurrected an idea he first wrote 20 years ago, and the insane on-set challenges that came with directing 100 blood-soaked kids in the Toronto heat. He talks about discovering strange, low-budget gems like Dream Eater, the “third-tape cinema” philosophy driving his new slate, and how Terrifier proved that unrated horror can still break the box office. Eli recalls Quentin Tarantino’s early support on Cabin Fever and Hostel, explains why Quentin insisted Eli play the Bear Jew in Inglourious Basterds, and shares what it was like to watch Tarantino act out every role during early read-throughs.
