    Karen Cliche Uncut
    2026/09/01

    Keith Reza sits down with actress Karen Cliche for a fun, wide-ranging conversation that moves from horror movies and Hollywood stories to real-life fears, career pivots, family, and the strange things that stay with us from childhood. Karen talks about her new movie The Ice Cream Man and what it was like acting opposite Eli Roth while he was also directing. She shares how that creative dynamic worked on set, how they built believable parents for the film, and why grounding horror in recognizable family energy makes the chaos hit harder.

    The conversation also revisits Karen's work in Thanksgiving and Saw VI, including the physical demands of horror performances and how imagination plays a huge role in selling fear on screen. Beyond film, Karen opens up about life between Canada and Los Angeles, being in the process of applying for a U.S. work visa, her thoughts on fame at conventions, food, health-conscious pizza experiments, protecting kids from exploitation, and even a wild detour into pyramid theories. It's funny, candid, and packed with the kind of unexpected tangents that make Reza Rifts such an entertaining listen.

We talk about how the nickname "Citric" was born, what it was like working alongside Christian Bale on Harsh Times, getting cast in the cult classic Idiocracy, the experience of voicing a character on one of America's most beloved animated shows, the very real challenges of Latino representation in Hollywood, and so much more.

  • Undercover Narcotics Detective to Hollywood Actor – Jim Klock Unplugged

    Undercover Narcotics Detective to Hollywood Actor – Jim Klock Unplugged
    2026/07/28
    Undercover Narcotics Detective to Hollywood Actor – Jim Klock Unplugged Jim Klock spent a decade on the police beat, including undercover narcotics work in Virginia, before moving to LA at 30 to chase Hollywood. His first role? Playing an undercover cop on HBO's The Wire while he was still actually an undercover narcotics detective back home. This week on Reza Rifts, host Keith Reza and Jim get into everything: the time he chased a violent suspect past an elementary school, working opposite Woody Harrelson on True Detective, learning craft from acting coach Jack Plotnick, the Sam Elliott "I'm the best Sam Elliott in the world" moment, his upcoming roles on Boston Blue, The Florist, and the shark movie Chum, plus Reza opens up about why he calls his Aspergers a superpower. Guest Info Jim Klock is a Virginia-born American actor, writer, director, and former law-enforcement officer. After a decorated 10-year career as a police officer and undercover narcotics detective complete with private-sector dignitary-protection work to fund his acting training, Klock hit Los Angeles and built a steady career playing the kind of cop, detective and morally-gray character you absolutely believe on screen. A working writer/director whose microbudget feature Red Letters he helmed himself, Jim is also part-time with the Stafford County Sheriff's Office, teaches at the law-enforcement academy, and is now gearing up to release The Florist, Chum, and a role on Boston Blue in 2026.
