Wow. Just wow. DEADGIRL was unleashed theatrically this weekend and apparently we did gangbusters. I hear that BOTH NYC and Dallas nights were SOLD OUT and at least one of the Austin shows was sold out as well. We came really close to selling out both nights in Chicago and the Los Angeles screening (which I attended) had a line around the block ... there were a few empty seats, but the NuArt was like 90% full. Amazing experience all around and the success of the theatrical run may mean that we get re-booked or land some new cities next month ... Regardless, I wanna thank everyone who came to see the movie and supported truly independent cinema.
Okay, so many reviews came out that I can't keep track of them! Naturally a lot of the mainstream reviewers from major papers and stuff just didn't dig it ... I get it. You just got out of a screening of THE UGLY TRUTH and then they ask you to review DEADGIRL. Of course it's gonna rankle you. This reviewer thing is really funny. Do they ask the Miley Cyrus fan to review the new Slayer album since they're both music?
Okay. I'm just gonna start linking in these things and you judge em for yourself. Otherwise this update'll take me all day ...

Wow. I'm sure that there's more, but to be quite honest I'm tired of linking up stuff right now. I'm sure I'll find and post more later in the week.
But there's one review of distinction that I'm gonna post up because, well, it's from the point of view of the real target audience. I'm tired of all of the reviewers out there being elderly cineastes and shit. It's about time we get a Siskel & Ebert for the young set:
Great stuff, guys!
All right, enough for today. I'll be back soon with more ...
