''Saw IV'' Co-writer Marcus Dunstan tells that they start shooting ''Feast 2: Sloppy Seconds'' this week, and ''Feast 3: The Happy Finish'' will be shooting directly after that.

“It begins shooting on Halloween day! Feast 3 begins shooting about a month after that. It is a back-to-back bloodbath in lovely Louisiana. I can’t wait”, says Dunstan, who wrote the ''Feast'' films with co-writer Patrick Melton. “The scripts are really coming along. Once again, a lack of budget has forced us to think beyond the parameters of the story and engineer excitement, tension and character dynamics that a more affluent budget could drown in special effects. Maybe I just hate myself, but I really enjoy being shoved up against the low budget wall and forced to find the Twilight Zone solution to the Star Wars problem.”

”The bold ambition of director John Gulager’s battle plan for these sequels is fantastic. There is no way we are supposed to be able to pull off the multitude of action and horror that the two stories promise, but we are going for it anyway. We are going to reach into the magician’s hat until we pull out all the rabbits we need to.”

Dunstan’s also getting a little ahead of himself – or maybe he’s just being smart, considering the writer’s strike is just around the corner – revealing that he’s already written a draft of ''Feast 4''!!
