Landis, Baker and Burns (2011)
*** 1/2 (out of 4)
Highly entertaining discussion between John Landis, Rick Baker and Bob Burns dealing with the 1932 film ISLAND OF LOST SOULS. Landis does the majority of the talking as he throws out various comments with Baker and Burns then jumping into the mix. This certainly doesn't appear to be a staged or scripted discussion because the men come across quite natural as they discuss not only the 1932 film but how it compared to other horror movies from the error. If you're a fan of the film in question or just horror films from the 30s then this here is certainly a must-see as all three men bring up some interesting ideas on what makes the film work so well and especially its sadistic and sexual side. It's great fun getting to see people you respect talk about a movie you enjoy because it gives you a chance to see experts talking about a film that some critics might just overlook. The featurette clocks in at 16 minutes and is very much worth watching.
