Episode 96 of EoM Presents finds EoM Contributor Andrew Eisenman sitting down with Crumb Catcher writer/director Chris Skotchdopole.

In this 12-minute conversation, the pair discuss a myriad of elements in the two years since the film originally released in theaters. They touch on Skotchdopole’s own feelings of being like character John, the journey to creating Crumb Catcher, and the evolution from the first draft to final cut – and more.

Official Synopsis:

At a remote estate in upstate New York, newlyweds Leah (Ella Rae Peck) and Shane (Rigo Garay) celebrate their honeymoon, but a pall hangs over their union. She works for the publisher who will be releasing his debut novel, a lightly autobiographical examination of family trauma, alcoholism, and the immigrant experience. Barely suppressed tensions over family trauma would be enough kindling for a blowup, but Leah and Shane’s marriage is truly tested by the appearance of two weirdos with entrepreneurial zeal and a half-baked blackmail plot: John (John Speredakos) and Rose (Lorraine Farris). They’re looking for investors for John’s latest invention, a culinary breakthrough called the Crumb Catcher — and they won’t take no for an answer. A gonzo home invasion thriller from Larry Fessenden’s Glass Eye Pix that pummels the American Dream into just desserts, Crumb Catcher is a striking directorial debut from Chris Skotchdopole.

Available on VOD and digital August 24^th, 2024.
