From a torrentially wet first day to a 2 a.m. pool fall, this episode tears the curtain back on The Handyman — a scrappy, action-packed film that evolves from cheeky home-invasion slapstick into full-throttle, wrench-and-hammer mayhem. Hear the writer, director and the film’s grunting, boxer-short-clad hero recount broken props, improvised cameos, midnight shoots and the brutal crowbar-and-hammer kills that had test audiences gasping.
They’ll take you through the comedy-rooted rework of the script, the practical and AI-assisted effects that turned miniatures and stock footage into a Rambo-style finale, and the small-budget hustle that pushed the team to steal shots after being kicked out of an Airbnb. Tune in if you love raw behind-the-scenes stories where chaos, creativity and a stubborn hero make a movie that keeps punching — literally — until the credits roll.
