On today's episode, we don't really have a main topic, but we do discuss a lot. First, I talk about why I was not fully prepared for this episode of the podcast. Then I share my thoughts and ideas on Freebooting. 

For news, I discuss a new X-Files comic and then discuss Outcast (Robert Kirkman), A New Wave of Violence (by Head Wound City), and briefly discuss Fidlar & Die Antwoord. I have been testing out the G-Board for iOS, and I briefly share my thoughts about that, and then finally we get into questions from AdrianL, GWLEdits, Παναγιώτης Συσκάκης, ST Graves, Sticky_Keys, Flaws23, and Mika K.

SFCCC: Robert Mukes

When you see Robert Mukes, you automatically think Rufus, from House of 1000 Corpses. He has accomplished a lot more than this one film, but regardless, lets start with the 2003 horror classic.

After House of 1000 Corpses was completed, it sat on the shelf for 3 years. Universal didn't want to release it and MGM didn't want to release it. They simply did not understand the energy. Ultimately, Rob Zombie had to purchase the film back and find Lions Gate who was willing to Release it. 

Robert says that he's Incredibly fortunate to have been a part of House of 1000 Corpses. A film that very few studios believed in initially, but once someone gave it a chance, it became a cult classic.

Through Robert's experiences, he is able to bring a unique perspective to his roles. As a child, he was a little kid who was picked on by bigger kids from the rough crowd. This provided him a lot of fuel for his roles. Now that he is, to say the least, a much larger man, he is able to channel those experiences that most people his size do not have. This leads to more authentic portrayals on the big screen. This ability mixed with his stature makes for a very unique and memorable actor.

When it comes down to it. Robert Mukes is just a guy who loves his work, and is ready and willing to do a lot more of it. He is a lot like House of 1000 Corpses. The film is done, and ready to be seen, full of raw energy, he just needs the right people to place in him the same faith that Lions Gate put in to House of 1000 Corpses, and they will get their very own classic Actor.
