John Landis is always great. Mick has a great interviewing style. Together, it's gold.

Can't believe the number of sycophantic morons who kiss this guy's ass and hail him a film genius...guys, let me tell you something. True filmmakers should not only be renowned for their artistry...but also for their integrity (usually both go hand in hand but I digress)...what I really mean is how they conduct themselves behind the scenes is what truly cements their status...and that includes LOOKING AFTER the cast and crew, making sure that they can do their work in a safe and secure environment...and being HONEST and TRANSPARENT with the people you work with...not using deceit and shady ethics to get what you want...by now most of you know what I'm referring to...I won't mention it...but John Landis has a checkered history when it comes to those things...and it should follow him everywhere he goes...

Rampage Clover plus John caused the death 2 children and a veteran actor in 1982

[@barbecueman6352]

John Landis is a remorseless killer

[@Mintylight]

Not the easiest person to interview. Well done.

[@MickGarrisInterviews]

Thanks!

[@unitedamericans8587]

America take note: tv legend Vic Morrow and two children died for NO reason on the set of Twilight Zone the Movie because of this shallow, reckless individual. He is NOT a good director and has been shunned by Hollywood.Good ridence!!!

[@aurorahill8942]

Has he ever issued a public apology??? I have NEVER seen one!!!

[@Roger8176]

@User2758 Hello. I agree with everything you said except that Landis did write the script for that Twilight Zone scene. I feel for Landis. He was trying to create the best he could for what we, the movie-going public, demand him to. If a movie isn't exciting, it's not going to do well and he was in competition with guys like Spielberg, Lucas, etc so it HAD to be spectacular. Yes, mistakes were made, but it could have happened to any of those directors.

[@harley2704]

We already know about the accident. Thank you for reminding us. But its not accurate to say he was shunned by Hollywood. In fact, he has made several notable comedies, including Three Amigos, Spies Like Us and his most popular, Coming to America. Disagree with your assessment about him not being a good director because many people have sene and enjoy several of his films.

[@Thomistica]

Nice conversation. Landis is so smart, knowledgeable and cheerful.

[@AmravindeSchurbap]

This is an excellent interview of John Landis.

[@babyirene3188]

Great show.

[@Tchernobog]

even Frankenstein 1931 had comedy elements, the dropping of the brain etc.

[@gonzalezfrank626]

As an aspiring writer in the horror genre, these interviews are both entertaining and educational. I'm glad I found this channel.

[@MickGarrisInterviews]

Thanks, Frank. Glad you're enjoying it.

[@alexakaa.charlesross8919]

Ditto!

[@MrYoungcam]

Wonderful interview. Aspiring filmmakers need to see this.

[@stefanross8129]

A Horror version of interviewer Mike Wallace. Very good! You have such a calming effect Mick.

[@MickGarrisInterviews]

Stefan Ross Aw shucks! Thanks for the very kind words.

[@iamtheesuprememoosie]

He's so much like his son Max it's crazy xD Down to even the little mannerisms.

[@vinceniederman]

His Son Has Said Some Stupid About Women Which is Dumb!

[@aidanhaney3563]

max landis is a rapist!!

[@JohnSmith-wj7ge]

Landis is such a film buff, his career has been patchy at best but Blues Brothers and American Werewolf in London are among my favorite movies of all time.

[@vinceniederman]

John Landis Had The Twilight Zone Accident Which He Has Never Recovered From!

[@darkcoastpictures]

Great Interview! Landis is clearly brilliant and is a great storyteller even when he's not behind the camera!

[@alexw9544]

American Werewolf an American classic. Perfect blend of horror and comedy.

[@MickGarrisInterviews]

I couldn't agree more.

[@burningexeter4365]

Mick Garris Interviews American Werewolf is a true classic but what about the other ''classic'' American Werewolf In Paris.

[@MickGarrisInterviews]

MasterOfThings Ummmm...

[@burningexeter4365]

Mick Garris Interviews I am disappointed that not once did you mention both Werewolf In Paris and Blues Brothers 2000. Cause I wanna know what was going through John's head when he let them make Paris and when he made Brothers 2000.

[@MickGarrisInterviews]

MasterOfThings We only have so much time to cover a career like John's!

[@Njbear7453]

Wrote American werewolf in London when he was 18.... holy shit

[@OfficialFatLip]

David's best acting is Brother Nathanael on youtube!!

[@southlondon86]

Why does he look like he’s just snorted a line before this interview?

[@Htownblokhedz]

John Landis makes me wanna rock suits daily. Lol He's just a normal dude that likes the same shit we do. He commands respect cuz of those suits man Im tellin ya lol

[@reddchan]

This man is a national treasure. He needs a netflix series just talking about cinema

[@danseth5775]

Yup just ask Vic Morrow or the two little Asian children who he illegally had working on the set of the" Twilight zone movie" . Oh wait ! You can't cause their all dead because of Landis's negligence

[@rampageclover9788]

National disgrace

[@NomisArchives]

Two childern died because of him.... But yeah man national treasure
