<description>&lt;div&gt;On this week’s show I talked to Rod Blackhurst, the director of the new film &lt;em&gt;Blood for Dust&lt;/em&gt;, about … well, a whole bunch of stuff. From his early shorts on the comedy website Funny or Die starring Dave Franco and Christopher Mintz-Plasse, to a documentary about Amanda Knox, to the horror short “Night Swim” (which recently received the feature-length treatment), to his new picture with the great Scoot McNairy and an all-star supporting cast that includes Ethan Suplee, Stephen Dorff, Josh Lucas, and Kit Harrington, we cover his whole career.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Blood for Dust&lt;/em&gt; hits VOD and has a limited theatrical engagement six days from now, and if you’re in the mood for a western neo-noir that deals with people who feel real (and have real-feeling problems), you’re not going to want to miss it. &lt;/div&gt;
