I'm a writer and director. Hint--if you want to make a genuinely good horror movie, don't focus on the gore, try to do a lot of off-screen, brutal bits (for example, you'll noticed quite a bit of off-screen violence in the Devil's Rejects) and focus on the pain in a character's face. Kind of obvious, I know, but you'd be surprised how people don't realise this.

I know you hate to promote aka Spam, especially something you're working on, but is there someplace we can see this online scene?

I have worked with models who wanted to become actresses, one in particular is well on her way. Very talented. Some others make good eye candy in small roles.

I won't mention that my signature usually contains info that I won't start threads on for breaking my cardinal rule :D

sorry for making you point that out. I completely missed it.

CK, the part with her describing the bat is hilarious.

MisterSadistro 11-18-2005 12:03 AM

Thanks. Another reason I used so many quick, multiple cuts (besides her saying "dude", "f**kin'", or "seriously" constantly) was a lot of laughing on the set. Everyone was in hysterics when she did that take and I knew I had to use it. And, yes, we both know Bela Lugosi played 'Dracula'. I wrote it that way as a joke. A serious film student actually IMed me to point out my "mistake" :D

MIght this movie be going under another title? I thought I saw some of the same frame caps somewhere else as well? Or do these two ladies act together a lot?

MisterSadistro 11-19-2005 12:11 PM

Both have done some modeling gigs together before, but this is the first movie for either. There was a prior title, but my screenplay is so drastically different that I didn't even want that title attached to it. Shooting in a few hours and I'm getting together some horrible Polish disco music CD for bar owner as a payment to use her place LOL

Ah, blessed be the barter system!

Note to self: Never shoot in bar on Saturday night during regular business hours again. Suddenly everybody is a DP, script writer, acting coach, etc and they all want to pitch you their ideas while you're shooting. Footage looks good, sound will be a nightmare. To think I didn't want any special treatment and shoot after closing either. Idiot ! LOL
