Today, I interview Anthony Frith, the director of MOCKBUSTER. The term refers to a knock-off of a blockbuster. For every FAST AND THE FURIOUS, there's a FAST AND THE FIERCE.

No studio does this more prolifically than The Asylum, best known for pumping out B-and-C movies quick, fast and dirty. They're the SHARKNADO crew.

Frith sent them a cold email, asking to direct one of their movies and make a documentary about the process. They agreed and MOCKBUSTER, this insane story about getting a movie filmed in just six days, was born.

We chatted about being silly online, balancing the needs of an Asylum sci-fi flick with those of a documentary, the realities of moviemaking, the surrealities of having AI write not one but two books about one's unreleased documentary, and so much more.

MOCKBUSTER is currently available to watch in select theatres and on digital platforms across the U.S. & Canada.

THE LAND THAT TIME FORGOT (the 2025 version from The Asylum, not the 2009 version from the Asylum) is available to watch on Tubi.
