Im in pre production

Alright so I finally decided i'm going to attempt and shoot my first film. I was wondering if anyone could help if they had newspaper clippings of a body found somewhere in their town, or any murders? If you do could you please let me know it would be a big help if I can get a lot of these clippings, THANKS !

Good luck with your movie.

Keep us updated.

Can't help you with your newspaper, though, sorry.

I only have a few clippings about weird deaths, suicides, crematoriums that left bodies in lake, Ted Bundy execution, etc. Nothing that quite fits your criteria I'm afraid. You might be better off printing some up yourself.

Thanks for replying guys, after I posted it I relized who the hell is going to have clippings like that unless they themselves are a killer. :p I will keep updated, I think its a great fuckin idea, a horror movie has never been done the way I plan on doing it if it goes right. Won't be that long though i'm going to go for about a hour maybe hour and half pushing it. When I read my script I always want to change shit around.

Tip from a film-fan, never filmmaker:

Dont add pointless scenes just to make it long enough...God, if I had a dime for every movie that was ruined like that I could fund your movie myself...

EDIT- Stupid typo if anyone saw it;)

Funding isn't going to be a problem, I will probley do it for all under $100 that is if my friends can act like they are being murdered lol. If not i'm in some shit, I probley won't start the shoot until may or june though, I have to build the props I need. Altough I will post a picture up in a week of the killer :D That is if the stupid cloths get here before then.

Edit : Also does anyone know a good scary looking knife that would hurt really fucking bad? I need one for one of the scenes. Thanks.

uhm...ever heard of a library? You can find dozens of old newspaper clippings and shit.

If one person hasn't been murdered in your town within the past 1500 years, then I need to move there.
