This past April and hot off the heels of the Days of the Dead convention, the guys from Nowhere were invited to cover their first film festival and the Nowhere California team charted new ground to cover the 1st Annual Hollywood Comedy Shorts Festival.

This event took place the 15th and 16th of April at the world famous TCL Chinese Theatre, gathering the world of short form comedy under one roof. During the opening night celebration, Nowhere California was represented on the red carpet and we took the opportunity to talk with a few of the festivals participants..

The beginning of this month marked the return of the Days of the Dead convention to the west coast and the guys from Nowhere jumped into the event head first. The three day event was packed to the rafters with excitement and, over the next few days, Nowhere California will launch our traditional tales from the con. The first stop is detention, a bloody session of detention.

In the past, our adventures to these conventions have revealed some of the best in the world of independent cinema and the 2016 Los Angeles Days of the Dead continued this roll, as Phil and I entered the world of “Getting Schooled…”

“Getting Schooled..” is a comedy/horror throwback to the world of the 1980s and slasher movies. As it was described to us, “The Breakfast Club” meets A LOT of blood. I could go into more details, but the trailer will speak volumes…

“Getting Schooled..” was a part of the screening schedule for the convention and the guys from Nowhere jumped at the opportunity to view this film, so please keep watching this site for our full review of “Getting Schooled..”

In the meantime and most importantly, Nowhere California had the great pleasure to talk with members of the “Getting Schooled..” team.

First, we talked with Courtney Blake Sandifer and director, Chuck Norfolk. In the opening conversation, Courtney reveals the development of the film’s look and other aspects of the production process. Then, Chuck discusses his role as co-writer/director and the evolution of “Getting Schooled..” from script to the screen.

In this second installment, we talk with Morgan Tyler and Mayra Leal. The guys first talk with Morgan Tyler (who plays the high school princess Hillary) after that conversation, Phil and I talk with Mayra Leal (who plays the outcast Julie).
These conversations delve into Morgan and Mayra’s personal developments of their characters and their views of the production process.

Nowhere California’s coverage of the 2015 Stan Lee’s Comikaze Convention is almost over and it’s time to revisit a friend from our conventions past.

Back in 2013, the guys from Nowhere made their way to Long Beach to cover the 5th Annual Long Beach Comic and Horror Convention. At this event, the guys talked to a lot of talented people and decided to record several interviews with some individuals from the independent comic book world..

As we talked to these great artists and creators, one conversation stood out and that was with the creator of “Oh, Hell..” George Wassil. The story of the creation and ideas behind his comic stood out to the guys from Nowhere, so a creative friendship was born.

Since that first meeting, both projects evolved and the opportunity to cross paths presented itself at the Comikaze event, so..

It’s time to return to the mix of Nowhere California’s coverage of the 2015 Stan Lee’s Comikaze and jump back into the conversations that developed from this amazing event, but I should rephrase amazing event and change that into Shpadoinkle event, as the guys from Nowhere talk with Dian Bachar.

Dian has built a great career, during his time in front of and behind the camera. This conversation delves in many aspects of Dian’s acting life, such as his creative work and friendship with the creators of South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Also, Dian discusses his current slate of work and the journey to bring these projects to life, from My Neighborhood to The Murders of Brandywine Theater, Dian has a lot in store for his fans.

Here is a quick trailer for The Murders of Brandywine Theater. This movie can be found on iTunes and other streaming formats.

In November, the creative minds of Mystery Science Theater 3000 launched a kickstarter in the hopes to relaunch this classic series and the loyal cult of the series have answered their call. In a short period of time the original goal was met and new information for the relaunched series was announced.

cvj-a1zxiaan9cp

As the new goal points were reached, Joel Hodgson would reveal the exciting possibilities that would be coming to the relaunch of the series and these were stated as possibilities, since Joel would say nothing could be set in stone until the kickstarter was finished. These announcements have been exciting to say the least and have revealed the new members of the cast; such as Jonah Ray as the guy launched into space and Felicia Day as Kinga Forrester, who is the daughter of MST3k original mad scientist Dr. Clayton Forrester. Also, in another piece of classic offspring news, Patton Oswalt has been announced to step in the role of TV’s Frank’s son and will be stepping in the role of TV’s Son of TV’s Frank.

Now, with all of that excitement out of the way, it is time for the important information and this kickstarter is in the final stretch. The goal is to reach the proper amount to produce 12 episodes and there is under 6 days left to meet that goal, so PLEASE go to their kickstarter page by CLICKING HERE and help reboot something that deserves to be rebooted.

There has been activity at the Gizmonic Institute and it’s time to return to the Satellite of Love, because the legendary crew of Mystery Science Theater 3000 are preparing for a new voyage and they need your help.

SHOUT! Factory has acquired Mystery Science Theater 3000 and SHOUT! has shown in the past their great love towards the world of cult entertainment, but the surprises didn’t stop there and the announcement of possible new episodes was made by the creator of the series, Joel Hodgson.

“I am thrilled to team with Shout! Factory, one of ‘MST3K’s’ greatest supporters, to once again pick up the creative mantle. It’s been a long time coming and I feel ready for the show’s reboot and hopefully lots of new iterations in different media. I’m also looking forward to working with both creative pros and the loyal fan base who have been inspired by our humble show over the years…Actually, I’m not sure if there really is such a thing as a humble show, let me check on that,” Joel commented and the “Bring Back Mystery Science Theater 3000’ kickstarter was launched.

The project is currently live and their goal is to make $2,000,000 in the next 30 days, so the world can get new episodes and a new generation can learn the proper enjoyment of less than great movies.

There are some moments in life that you are ready for, but sadly there are sometimes that no one can ever be ready. A member of the Nowhere California family informed us of the story of Baby Brindan and tragic events that his family are still recovering from.

Brindan was set to enter this world on Aug.1st, but sadly died in the womb the day after and his family could use your help. They have set up a page at Go Fund Me For Brindan to help with the cost of funeral expenses and they are very close to their goal.

Please go to their page, learn their story and send your support. A dollar and/or a kind word can go a long way.
