I am pleased to announce that the 1st draft of the script for Redress is about 2/3 complete. Most of the people I’ve clued in about the story say this will be the scariest thing I’ve done yet.

Redress - Pre-production Begins! (0)

Posted on 18 August, 2007 in Redress

I’ve been wanting to make two types of films for a while now: (1) a ghost story, and (2) a very short film. Judging from my past reviews I know that I can scare people and I know I can gross them out and creep them out. Now I want to prove I can scare you…

I am pleased to announce I have begun work on my new short film “Redress“:

One night during the long ride home, a convicted felon is visited by the ghost of a murdered woman and becomes a pawn in a mission of spiritual vengeance.

Redress will appear on Tales from the Carnal Morgue - Volume Two and hopefully at some film festivals near you.

For those of you who are screatching your heads about what “Redress” means, I suggest you grab a dictionary or follow this link…

More details soon… I promise…

Goals and Festivals (0)

Posted on 6 August, 2007 in News Blurbs

I am extremely please that I was able to accomplish 3 my goals for 2007. I was so happy that I actually sat back and said to myself, “Take a short break, you deserve it.”

• Goal Number One - I completed the Tales from the Carnal Morgue DVD in time for the Comic-Con. Due to some screw up at the replicator the DVDs arrived a day late, but hey, I did my part.
• Goal Number Two - My film Mr. Buttons was accepted at both the Horrorfind Weekend Film Festival and the El Cajon Video and Film Festivals. These were fests I specifically designed the film for, so it was great to see it actually get accepted there.
• Goal Number Three - I implemented a new shopping cart for the Steel Web Studios site. The new cart allows me extreme flexibilty in adding products, having specials and coupons and Wholesale Discounts for some of our business partners. I’ve been so busy doing other things that I didn’t have time to dick around with the programming, so I took the week after Comic-Con off and focued solely on installing and integrating the cart. Within 12 hours of going live with the new cart I had my first order through it, so it was a relief to know it is working well.

Now I am going to sit back and rest a little - just a little - and soon I will announce a new project for you…

Bedbugs from Hell - The Teatment Begins (0)

Posted on 3 August, 2007 in Bedbugs from Hell

I have officially started on the first draft of the script for Bedbugs from Hell. I’ve been spending the last few weeks getting the Carnal Morgue DVD ready and then preparing for Comic-Con. It feels good just to sit down and write again. I have to admit I’ve been researching topics from the story for a while now and I have been methodically filling my notebook and index cards with plot points and character development. It’s good just to let all of that information begin to purge itself into a storyline.

I’ve told a few people about the plot of the film, and It’s funny, but I love the look on people’s faces when they say, “Oh, how are you going to work hardcore sex into that”.I really enjoy making people guess what the hell I’m going to do next. I can definitely say that this next film will take splatter porn to a whole new level. As far as the hardcore stuff, you all need to stop worrying about it. In the end, I’m going to sit you down in a dark room and tell you a scary story…and those sick fucks that liked Slaughter Disc are really going to love this one or they are going to run from the room throwing up
