Ep884: An Interview with Janine Pipe: Fan to Filmmaker
At long last, Ian welcomes Dog Soldiers superfan-turned-author-turned-filmmaker, Janine Pipe!
Ever since last year's review of Neil Marshall's 2002 squaddies-versus-werewolves movie, Ian has been low-key obsessed with catching up on the writer/director's filmography. Fortunately, UK-based author Janine Pipe wrote a heartfelt, thorough, and thoroughly enjoyable book called Sausages: The Making of Dog Soldiers--which covers everything about the project, from concept, to filming, to release, and beyond.
In this wide-ranging conversation, Janine talks about stepping away from a career in law enforcement to focus on motherhood, and how that made way for her turning a lifelong passion for horror movies into a snowball of writing gigs, meeting and collaborating with her filmmaking hero, and now producing, writing, and directing her own short films!
This one's for anyone who needs that push to stop dreaming and start being!
