#213 – Psycho Beach Party | Directed by Robert Lee King (with Connor Kujawinski)

Now we shall wrap that up by bringing back Connor Kujawinski (@connorkuj) for a breakdown of Psycho Beach Party, the 2000 comedy-horror beach movie spoof that follows a whirlwind of surfing, dissociative identity disorder, murder, and other shenanigans over in 1962-set Malibu.

The “mildly talented” (100% his term, not ours) actor, Nick D’Agosto tweeted enthusiastically about The Life You Can Save, and when the team saw the tweet, they jumped on it! They reached out and connected Nick and Charlie, and a friendship was formed. Nick invited Charlie to appear on his (Nick’s) podcast, “God & Other Delicacies,” and now Charlie is returning the favor. If Nick sounds familiar, it’s because his voice graces the beginning and end of each of Charlie’s episodes (and some movies and TV shows, as well). Born and raised in a middle- to upp...
