Watch chlorine kills in beautiful widescreen. Indie films at this level just don’t get made like this everyday. youtu.be/LoK5W58V6V4?si…

I loved the vision on kanye's bully when he dropped the initial draft, and now that I'm listening to it, it sound fantastically smooth one of his most chill albums.

the flashbacks get me everytime

One of the best reviews I've ever received.

@codyclarke on my tv! Out of character out now!

@TasteRay Enjoy!!!

@DAN_LOTZ Fantastic, always looking for a new film to obsess over.

I made a brand new movie.. Time to watch it! youtu.be/3jflw00TSgQ?si…

@coreypinemusic lets goooo! :D

Coming soon.

Out of Character ™ coming 2026.

youtu.be/7rtnFXzQLEA?si… Have Only 365 Days to Save My Youtube Channel. I'm giving myself an ultimatum this year.

Going into 2026 I feel a pensive nervousness I haven't felt in years entering the new year.. This could be the one that makes or breaks my youtube dreams. The goal is to go full throttle this year. Lets see what I actually do.

It turns out Epstein was in the middle of Iran-Contra. There were no civilians involved in that. There's absolutely no question Epstein was intelligence, either Mossad or CIA or both. Establishment media ignoring this is so absurd that it makes you wonder who they're working for.

First review is in! "Our lead actress takes to the dialogue in a way I've never seen in one of Cody's previous movies, these lines feel made for her to say in the moment she's saying them." - @DAN_LOTZ on MY SUBMISSION

Director's Statement for 'My Submission' (2025) Directed by Cody Clarke and starring Allison Sonson

youtu.be/sS7lFernF2k?si… I'm back. You know what this probably is.

@codyclarke Let’s goooo

@DAN_LOTZ ill of course send you a screener, youre grandfathered in

the thing about youtube nowadays is you can make a feature film as beautiful as this one (NO JOB) and it gets less than 1000 views in a year because the algorithm has been programmed to see it as nothing. like the second it goes up it has been robotically analyzed as not a thing

@codyclarke LOL yeah basically how i see it as well.

@DAN_LOTZ youtube, intentionally, doesnt know either. as with most AI-powered stuff, there's no hood to look under, by design. that way, intent cant be proven. they learned this lesson when some online platforms got scrutinized for shadowbans. so its just 'the algorithm works mysteriously'

@codyclarke Yeah Id agree there. Excited to see your new movie sad to say it probably wont be anytime soon since no youtube release hoping to catch it on tubi or if you ever come to chicago!

@DAN_LOTZ the system is designed to be incomprehensible and different for everyone. virtually every online platform is like this, where one person's experience is intentionally better than another's, so that certain % will be like 'idk seems fine to me'. thats long been uncovered

@codyclarke Not disagreeing feels like youtube viewership on a whole is down and its pushing out less and less creative original stuff. Totally agree there. Just odd how one film will get past the wall and others wont, its not sustainable how it currently is for sure.

@codyclarke I'd agree sort of. But then one of my most successful films in terms of views and performance dropped less than a year ago. So I'm not sure what it is about the algorithm that trips some films into the "dont show this to anyone camp" Its gotten harder as the years have gone on.
