We close out #NewOIRvember 2 with a movie that New World Pictures didn't release, but they nearly could've if they hadn't chased off Roger Corman to start Concorde Pictures, where he released THE DRIFTER in 1988. starring Kim Delaney (New World's Tour of Duty) as hard-working designer who has a hard time driving from Los Angeles to San Francisco and back again, who meets a tall dark stranger in Miles O'Keeffe (ATOR, THE FIGHTING EAGLE, THE CARTEL) who - does he smell? He smells, right? He's a drifter, so...smelly is a big possibility, right? How dangerous is it to lose your sense of smell? We discuss! 



Written and directed by Larry Brand, who also acts in the movie, Brand's directorial debut, and also the debut of him writing, acting, and directing a movie as well, this also brings up the problems with conducting your business at the Oki Dog and giving family heirlooms to a stranger. Also, how important is project management? Why are people not going to movie theaters anymore? And, do cats like the ocean? THE DRIFTER brings up some serious and delicate topics, and we do our best to rip the door off of them all. 



So sit back and relax on that motel floor in the room you've just rented from some motel that is somewhere between the Bay Area and Los Angeles but also somehow near mountains, and enjoy this smoldering, sex-filled thriller that tears the lid off of doing your due diligence when hiring people. Background checks, folks! Don't be afraid of them!
