Two Shorts


I wanted to tell everyone that I am making two short films. One is called "Hacked" and was written by Jeff O'brien (Alien Incursion, Insecticidal & Bone Dry with Lance Henriksen) and the other is called "The Stockholm Syndrome" written by me. Jeff's script, "Hacked", should be fun. It's a comedy horror. If you merged "Weird Science" and "Texas Chanisaw Massacre" you would have the basic feel for this one. My script is pretty dark and nasty but should be at the very least a good conversation piece. I will be shooting these on HI Def with the cinema lense package. They should look great. I am in casting mode now which is always very difficult when you don't have a lot of money.

If only I knew what it was like casting a no-budget flick!

Good luck. But why two shorts? Not much money in shorts, ya know. Using them for calling cards?

Aric: I will use these as calling cards and also I just feel a little out of practice since it's been about 4 years since my first feature. Plus it looks like I can get these films on Fangoria TV.

They will cost me next to nothing since the film co. I work for has studio space, all the lights we will need, camera and post equipment.
