AdamHOST
It's the movie.
AdamHOST
Even Lloyd Kaufman shies away from.
AdamHOST
Okay.
AdamHOST
So, which I think says a lot, giving all the movies in the trauma library, uh, it's the one that when it's brought up, he's kind of like, he gets kind of nervous and he's shifting around his chair.

AdamHOST
So... about this movie though accused of some kind of unforgivable misogyny of a gone by era I find the end to be an extreme form of actual like feminism like feminine freedom you know freedom from the shackles of the patriarchal oppressors, okay? I don't think a lot of people see the movie that way, but I do.
AdamHOST
I actually think this movie is really empowering to women.
AdamHOST
So, you know, wrong again, Lloyd Kaufman.
AdamHOST
You know, he pooh-poohs this movie and is just like, oh, it's so sexist and misogynist.
BrimstoneGUEST
I can tell you that as of right now, as long as everything goes smoothly and people don't forget, we've got DMC from Run DMC coming on, Taboo from Black Eyed Peas, Charles Martinet, Mario and Luigi from Nintendo.
BrimstoneGUEST
My buddy Jason Moore from The Punisher, from Marvel and Disney, Kevin Smith, and Lloyd Kaufman.
BrimstoneGUEST
And we've got some surprises for our next round as well, but we're filming 12 in a day, and then we've got a little bit of a reprieve for a few months.
BrimstoneGUEST
Then we're going to do another 12.
David M. LattGUEST
Here I am today.
Dave BullisHOST
You mentioned permission to make movies because, you know, Lloyd Kaufman, when I bought his filmmaking DVD set, it actually came with a degree from Troma University.
Dave BullisHOST
He's just like, just write your name in there.
Dave BullisHOST
He's like, just write it in with pen and hang it up on your wall and you can make movies too.
Aaron ChristensenHOST
Few independent film studios have cultivated a cinematic identity as unmistakable or as gloriously unhinged as Troma.
Aaron ChristensenHOST
Founded by Lloyd Kaufman and Michael Herz, the New York-based outfit built its reputation on giving audiences the movies Hollywood wouldn't touch.
Aaron ChristensenHOST
Outrageous, irreverent, low-budget spectacles that mixed horror, comedy, sex, punk attitude, and social satire.
Aaron ChristensenHOST
Released in 1986, Class of Newcomb High is one of the best examples of the Troma formula.
Aaron ChristensenHOST
Directed by Richard W. Haynes and Lloyd Kaufman, the film transforms the familiar high school horror movie into a radioactive free-for-all, with Tromaville High sitting dangerously close to a nuclear power plant.
Aaron ChristensenHOST
Students mutate, and the school becomes ground zero for a gleeful collision of sci-fi, splatter, and teenage rebellion.
Aaron ChristensenHOST
Troma's radioactive teen classic became a cult favorite and spawned two equally outrageous sequels, introducing radioactive giant squirrels, lip-smacking belly buttons, and a battle against corporate greed.
Aaron ChristensenHOST
In other words, fun for the whole family.
Joey LewandowskiHOST
It's like Jamie Lee Curtis.
ShredsHOST
Or Troma, Lloyd Kaufman.
Joey LewandowskiHOST
Oh, yeah.
Joey LewandowskiHOST
But, uh-
ShredsHOST
Lloyd Kaufman's The Chain.
Joey LewandowskiHOST
I would watch that.
ShredsHOST
[laughs] Yeah.
Peaches ChristHOST
And I think, you know, Ted V. Michaels is in that canon of...
Peaches ChristHOST
You know, everyone talks about independent film, and then there's sort of like the, the Lloyd Kaufmans [laughs] and the Ted Michaels, the early John Waters, where you go, "Okay, that's really independent." So I'm wondering, Elijah, if you can talk about, especially for, for listeners who may be being introduced to Ted V.
Peaches ChristHOST
Michaels for the first time, like, who is this filmmaker, and why do so many of us admire the way he did it?
Elijah DrennerGUEST
Well, I think William Goldman wrote in one of his books, "The only true auteur was ever Russ Meyer," and I'm gonna get to Ted in a second, because Russ wrote, shot, edited-
DustinHOST
For a trauma movie, too, even though it's more of them just releasing it, I don't think they really had much to do with any writing or anything.
DustinHOST
I don't think Lloyd Kaufman really had anything to do with any writing on this at all, but I think they just released it.
AnnaHOST
I didn't even realize that.
AnnaHOST
That's pretty cool, though.

Brendan WallHOST
There's more here.
Brendan WallHOST
Apparently Lloyd Kaufman's in this movie somewhere from Troma.
Jason McLeodHOST
Yeah, I would think I would have noticed him, but I didn't.
Jason McLeodHOST
Maybe he's dressed up as a Nazi in the way that Mel Brooks would like to dress up as a Nazi.
Jeff BoggessGUEST
But Troma was already around by the time that this movie came out.
Jeff BoggessGUEST
I think it's Lloyd Kaufman, right? He's the Troma guy.
Tristan MooreGUEST
He kind of
