This week on BEHIND THE LENS, it's all about mysteries thanks to director STEPHEN SHIMEK talking about MURDER AT THE EMBASSY, and writer/director LOTFY NATHAN discussing THE CARPENTER'S SON.
But first, let's take a little trip to Cairo with director STEPHEN SHIMEK and MURDER AT THE EMBASSY.
The second film in the Miranda Greene franchise, this story is fun, and the film is as entertaining as it is beautiful, as it drenches you in the beauty and wonder of Egypt. Set in 1930s Cairo with pyramids and antiquities at the height of Egyptology and archaeology, private detective Miranda Green is called to investigate a suspicious murder inside Cairo's seemingly impenetrable British Embassy when she discovers a second crime has been committed that could spark war across the globe. Everyone within the walls of the embassy is a suspect, but the ultimate evil force is lurking right around the corner.
Directed by STEPHEN SHIMEK and written by Mark Brennan, MURDER AT THE EMBASSY stars Mischa Barton, Mido Hamada, Kojo Attah, Nell Barlow, Raha Rahbari, Antonia Bernath, and Richard Dillane.
Now let's switch gears and talk about another type of mystery with writer/director LOTFY NATHAN and THE CARPENTER'S SON. Not your cut-and-dry faith-based or historical religious film, Lotfy pushes the envelope here as he draws from the apocryphal Infancy Gospel of Thomas for this story. This is a film that has already drawn some ire in the Christian community as it is developed from the apocryphal Infancy Gospel of Thomas about the childhood of Jesus and fills in the New Testament canonical gospels, often clashing with some of those accepted writings. A powerful and fascinating film that is exquisitely made. And did I mention it stars Nic Cage as Jesus' father, the carpenter Joseph?
Written and directed by LOTFY NATHAN, THE CARPENTER'S SON stars Nic Cage as "The Carpenter", Noah Jupe as "The Boy" aka Jesus, and FKA Twigs as "The Mother" aka Mary.

BEHIND THE LENS #498: Featuring Shane Dax Taylor and Michael Dowse
This week on BEHIND THE LENS, it's all about action thanks to director SHANE DAX TAYLOR and his new film, EXIT PROTOCOL, and director MICHAEL DOWSE and his latest film, TRAP HOUSE.
First up, let's take a look at TRAP HOUSE and my exclusive interview with director MICHAEL DOWSE. TRAP HOUSE is set in El Paso, Texas, at the border where DEA Agent Ray Seale and his team infiltrate a drug trafficking operation run by notorious cartel boss 'Guzman'. But things go wrong, and one of his team is shot and killed. In the aftermath, the slain agent's son, Jesse, is devastated and struggles financially, having to move back to Spain with his mom. Ray's own son, Cody feels sorry for Jesse and bands together a group of other DEA kids to utilize their skills and access to resources to enact revenge, stealing money from trap houses operated by the Guzman family.
Directed by Michael Dowse and written by Gary Scott Thompson and Tom O'Connor, TRAP HOUSE stars Dave Bautista and Bobby Cannavale as DEA agents Ray Seals and Andre Washburn, Jack Champion as Ray's son Cody, and Sophia Lillis, Whitney Peak, Zaire Adams, and Blu del Barrio as Cody's friends Deni, Sophia, Kyle, and Jesse. Plus, Inde Navarette and Kate del Castillo.
Now let's keep the action going with director SHANE DAX TAYLOR and his new film, EXIT PROTOCOL. I love this film. I had so much fun watching the film with a terrific blend of action, emotion, humor, and performances from some of my favorite actors, ike Dolph Lundgren, Michael Jai White, Charlotte Kirk, and Scott Martin. And the story itself is great!
A simple tale of assassins, aka hitmen. A notorious hitman, Sam Hayden, who made a career of killing other assassins, wants out. But walking away is not that easy. He's got one last job to do, and that is to take out his rival Charles Mangold. Unfortunately, Hayden gets double-crossed by his boss, who has hits out on Mangold AND Hayden. Now marked for death, Hayden unexpectedly finds himself partnering with Mangold to outrun his boss and the third hitman in the mix.
Directed by Shane Dax Taylor and written by Chad Law, EXIT PROTOCOL stars Scott Martin, Dolph Lundgren, Charlotte Kirk, Lina Maya, Stephanie Beran, and Michael Jai White.
