️ Interview with John Hsu – Director of Dead Talents Society In
this special episode of the Art or Trash Cinema Podcast — the
Swiss film podcast dedicated to arthouse, horror, and
exploitation cinema — we speak with acclaimed Taiwanese director
John Hsu (Detention).


His latest film, Dead Talents Society, a sharp and truly-funny
horror-comedy screened at NIFFF 2025, sparks a rich discussion
covering:


The existential struggles of ghosts in the afterlife Explorations
of hustle culture and imposter syndrome The rising importance of
Taiwanese folklore in cinema and national identity
Recommendations and examples of Taiwanese genre filmmaking


John shares how blending horror, humor, and folklore allows for
emotional and political storytelling — and how pride in Taiwanese
traditions may play a role in shaping modern genre films.

film podcast fix.
