This week on the Ballyhoo, The Two Zach(k)’s (Eastman and Beins) bring the legendary Lloyd Kaufman of Troma Entertainment onto the program for an unforgettable discussion.
Listen in as the boys listen to Lloyd express his love for folks like Sam Fuller and Preston Sturges, learn about how Mizoguchi Chaplin have influenced choices in his films, and listen to him express his love for Ernst Lubitsch’s ‘To Be or Not To Be’. You’ll also hear more about Lloyd’s career, his fights to see his films make it to the big screen, and how he has even gone to the task of giving forgotten films of the past a home on ‘Troma Now!’.
