Anybody Still Here?

Geez, it's been like a month since I updated the blog. How lame.

Not a whole heck of a lot to talk about these days, once again. Been writing, trying to get stuff read, trying to land a gig. I couldn't take the facial hair any more and cut it off ... hoping that it doesn't end up being a case of Samson-itis.

Last week was Lynh's birthday, tomorrow is Max's 7th birthday, and next month is my ten year wedding anniversary, so this is always a busy time for me personally. But, as I said, not a lot to report on professionally at the moment.

A script that I wrote last year is seeking a director right now. Hopefully someone will attach themselves to the project and then I'll finally be able to talk about it. I'm trying hard to land another job with the same company writing a sequel to a big-budget film that came out last year ... but that's all I can say about it right now.

I just turned in a "guest writer" chapter to my boys Adam Minarovich and Kevin Woods' upcoming book entitled HOW NOT TO MAKE A MOVIE. Something I know a lot about. I'll keep you posted as that project nears its release date.

DEADGIRL continues to screen all over the world, dividing audiences wildly everywhere it goes. If you head over to the DEADGIRL BLOG, you can see that we made AMC's "Top Ten Best Horror Movies of 2008" list ... and also the top slot on someone else's "Top Ten Worst Movies of 2008" list. I love it all, good and bad.

There's also a really great interview with one of DEADGIRL's directors, Gadi Harel, on Twitch Film, which you can (and should) read HERE.

DEADGIRL is currently playing all over Germany as part of the Fantasy Film Festival. It's next stop is this weekend in Stuttgart. It's also been announced that we'll be playing two midnight shows at Orlando's Florida Film Festival in April. All the info for those screenings can be found HERE.

There are quite a few more festival screenings coming up, but I can't announce them until they're official. Heck, it'll give me an excuse to update the blog!

Not making any movies these days means not having any interesting new photos. Thank God for Facebook, though. Brad Harper, sound recorder for SUBURBAN NIGHTMARE and LIVING & DYING sent me an old-school shot from the set of SN, which I'll share right here in lieu of anything new. Enjoy. I'll be back when there's something to report ... who knows when that'll be ...

Hey man. I'm still reading up on you. I'll have to drop Lynh an email and wish her a happy late birthday. Tell Max I said hello and send my birthday wishes. And of course I can never forget your anniversary is my birthday.

Can't wait for things to get nailed down for you with the floating projects. Exciting stuff. And I truly hope DeadGirl lands some sort of NYC screening. I'm dying to see it.

Next time I hit up LA, I'm bringing my copy of Psychos In Love.
