Rotten Tomatoes Editor-in-Chief, Joel Meares on The Best Scary Movies, Why We Love to Be Scared & The Role of the Critic - Unleash SPOOKT...
Hello my little creative goblin! Today I have a very spooky special for you with a cinematic flair! I’ll be chatting with Joel Meares who is the Editor in Chief of Rotten Tomatoes and an overall film and writing aficionado, as well as a delightful human being!
I wanted to have Joel on the show for two reasons:
1) Rotten Tomatoes has this really cool editorial section up right now called Scare Central where they basically detail every scary movie you could ever want or need to know about. I thought it would be really fun to do a more themed episode and one where we specifically dive into movies, scary movies and why we, as humans, love to be scared.
2) I think Joel is pretty damn creative and even a rebel. Not only has he really expanded much of rotten tomatoes content, in addition, much of the work Joel has overseen, lovingly pokes fun at the brand with cheeky titles such as the book, “Rotten Movies We Love” and the podcast, Rotten Tomatoes is Wrong. Acknowledging that while it’s nice to know how something holds up critically, it isn’t everything. In Rotten Tomatoes words, “The Score is just the start of the conversation”.
