Making progress ....baby steps

YEah so I have not been keeping up with this thing. I ran into a period again where I had that mental wall again. ITs kind of like that wall Simon Pegg's character hit in "Run fat boy Run". But I think I have busted through that and hope to keep the momentum. I finished a lonely trooper episode for the curious. You can catch it at my youtube site http:\\www.youtube.com\SpecialMarkProd

I also am making progress on my Doctor Who/Fae'th story. Fae'th is a fantasy series that I came up with years ago and have been making very slow progress. I realize I have to narrow my interests a bit or at least narrow what I want to work on because if I try to touch everything I will get nothing done.
I saw the trailer for the Friday the 13th remake. I admire New Line for wanting to reboot the series but there is something special about the original. Why they feel they have to do a reboot and can't just do another sequel is beyond me. Jason is a classic Icon much like Leatherface or Freddie K. I really didn't like what they did with the remake of Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The prequel one was ok but not really needed. Part of the horror of the beast is the unknow part of it and when you give it an origin, as interesting it maybe as in the Halloween remake, it still I think takes away abit of the edge of the monster. The thing that makes those characters scarey is that unknown of what made them the way they were to begin with, you know before they were hideously deformed. Leaving that little bit in the back of your mind asking "Is this character just plain evil. No outside influences or trauma they just are. I think that is the scariest villian of them all. The one that just is evil.

Anyway speaking of evil. It is truely evil on what get put out for distribution nowadays. While it makes me hopeful on one day being able to find a distributor for my future film, it also makes me afraid that there will be so much shit on the market no one will care.
Today a brief review of Bachelor Party in the Bungalow of the Damned

So these guys end up having a bachelor party and the strippers turn out to be vampire, demons, something or other. They werer just as scary out of makeup as they were in makeup which was not saying much. Now being a low budget film expectations aren't exactly high but since it was bachelor party themed I figured there would be some decent you know T & A. Yeah I know it sounds sexist but lets face it sometimes that can be the most redeeming factor of a bad film. Anyway no such luck here. This movie is slow to get things started and when they do you can barely tell what is going on. Now in the plus column the video quality and audio it self were very good which are two things that can really destroy a low budget film. This movie was not even in the bad but good category as much as a yawner....with scarey strippers. Anyway to sum up

Breast shots 1

SImulated oral sex

Death by man eating breasts ( not as cool as you might think)

1 fight with intestines

1 Beheading

2 neck bites

Death by ass stabbing


Thats about it. You can leave this one off your que folks its not hardly worth the disk it is written on. Even the gore was disappointing and the CGI was just plain aweful....not funny haha aweful just bad.
