Episode 36 - Alex Phillips, Director/Writer of New VSP Anything That Moves plus Jan Titles

About this episode

In this episode, the hosts interview director Alex Phillips about his work in exploitation and horror films.

Finding the joy in unfettered creativity. A podcast dedicated to bringing awareness and context to movies of any budget, from anywhere, and during any time. In Episode 36 we are fortunate to be able to sit down with one of the most exciting new voices in exploitation and horror, Alex Phillips. This dude loves genre movies, and we dig into All Jacked Up and Full of Worms and his new feature, Anything That Moves. I think everyone will enjoy hearing from this creative and darkly funny filmmaker. He gave us almost an hour, which was more than we were expecting. But it's a great look into independent hustle and an attitude of just-get-it-done. Eli and Chris stick around after Alex leaves and review the January titles, and largely agree Jan was a great month to kick off 2026. Up next will be the March announcements and then a separate episode that is the second half of our Valentine's Melusine special. Thank you to everyone who listens, and find us on the VS Discord if you want to chat. Also, Instagram at punkvacation_podcast.
