Yeah, looked good to me.
Yeah, looked good to me. I'd watch that movie based on what I just saw!
I loved the logline
"A voyeristic killer reverts to his old ways to protect his son"
Thats a good story. .... thats a good idea for a good story. The trailer looked good, I'd definitely watch this movie. Thanks for posting it, its a good thing to have in our spotlight this week.
Thanks for the vote of confidence
I appreciate the compliments, thank you very much. My partner Jerod Brennen came up with the logline, he also wrote the screenplay which is based on a story of my design, he's a hell of a writer. Directing it was major fun, especially the days we did the makeup. Matthias Saunders DP'd it for us, Jerod edited the movie, I through the trailer together with music from the movie by Jason Melick. We are working on the screenplay for the feature right now and hopefully it will be done in time to begin pre-production next year. I'm excited to see how it goes on the festival circuit, so far so good. Thanks again!

I would definetly be
I would definetly be interested in seeing the whole flick.
Hey frighty
This looks pretty long for a short. What's the running time?
26 minutes. The whole
26 minutes.
The whole story is a trilogy, I've been hacking away at it in short form. The plan is to make 3 features out of this. Many people have said it would make a better feature than a short and I agree because so much of the story is missing.
I've got a feature version in rough draft, I've got the third installment in draft as well. I'm working on how it will wrap up at the moment. I am also looking at revisions to the story to see what I want to tell, remove some influences that I didn't realize were there till recently and work on inserting other influences to mix things up a bit.
I'm back and forth on what characters I want to create with this. I am on the fence about some names (like Ian for instance) one minute it sounds weak to me the next it sounds creepy and that's what I want, something signature to the character and the family over-all.
I'm in the middle of this other project so the A Thousand Words stuff has been put on hold, but that's a good thing because it's giving me more time to develope the story and details. I've come up with some pretty gruesome things I'd like the characters to go through and some other ideas I"d like to try out.
The main concern is keeping the story tight and making sure it's characters are the driving force behind it, not the gore or stuff like that. I want to try to deliver on a lot of different horror genre tricks and techniques, but also keep the deep story that goes into it.
I've actually recently found some of myself in a lot of the characters, that's a good thing because it shows they were developed from the heart and not from some carbon copy of what I've seen on screen growing up watching horror movies.
26 minutes is kind of long, the original short is 14 minutes, the next one I'm trying to keep between those. Bloodline was meant to only be 20 minutes but there was too much good stuff to cut it down and I didn't see a reason to. Now that I'm considering putting it online sometime in the future I'm thinking I may just not be able to do it because of it's length. That's still ok, we have DVDs if people want to see it bad enough.
