Scott Shaw is the world’s greatest multi-hyphenate star you’ve never heard of. He’s a musician, writer, martial arts master, teacher, sword owner, and most importantly, Zen filmmaker. What is Zen filmmaking? Well, it’s kind of like improv, but it’s absolutely not that. It’s inventing rollerblades. It’s re-releasing the same movie in seventeen different cuts. It’s filming your lunch.

For 1-900 HOT DOG this week, I wrote about Scott Shaw and his now-deceased collaborator, Donald G. Jackson, whom you might know from films like Hell Comes to Frogtown and Baby Ghost. Scott Shaw is absolutely going to yell at me for getting all of this wrong on his blog when he finds this. Thank you in advance for not kicking my ass, Scott.
