Calling all artists!

     Do you like to draw? Sketch? Paint?
     I am currently looking for someone who can draw up some sketches or drawing for my zombie screenplay, Seekers.  
     It's a non paying gig, but you will get publicity and promotions from me. 
     If you think you have what it takes to draw some scary, creepy, eerie, zombie-fied sketches then show me what you got.  Nothing is too grotesque or morbid, just no over-the-top-gore.  Remember, it's not gore or blood and guts that sells.  It's the way its presented.
     The best sketches will be hand picked personally by me.  Multiple artists are encouraged because I love to see everyone's interpretation of their take on a zombie!  The scarier the better! 
     Each sketch(up to 4 or 5) will be made into 4"x6" or 5" x 7" postcards for distribution, promotion and publicity.  Yes your name will be on the postcards as the artist!
     So send as many as you like either by e-mail or postal mail. Looking forward to seeing what you can come up with to scare me!  Hehehe.

horror short story

     In the midst of writing a sequel, I'm also working on another short story.  There's no title as of yet, but the story follows a young woman named Cathy, who witnesses her boyfriend Mark's brutal murder at the hands of his mother and father. She goes to the police, but they do not believe her.  After Cathy has one last run in with Mark's parents, killing the mother, she packs a bag and drives herself to her parents remote cabin in the woods, far from civilization.  She thinks she's safe,until a strange elderly woman shows up and begins to show signs that she may be related to her boyfriend's parents.
     Also, I am going to finish another short story I started writing back in October after my weekend in Michigan with my friends.  Had quite a night while we sat around the bonfire.  Let's just say what happened scared us all.  It was perfect to write a story.  Hopefully when that is finished it will give you the willies just as it gave us.
      Will keep you posted on my progress. :)

"Seekers 2" being written!

     While waiting to hear if my first screenplay Seekers will be a semi finalist or a finalist in the Shriekfrest Screenplay and Film competition, I've started writing the sequel.  I'm confident.
     Picking up where the first one ended, the character of Ashlie is now alone and injured.  Along the way she meets four friends who are also making their way to the shelter set up in Chicago by the CDC, but soon discover that the entire city has become over run by the undead.  After being rescued by the military, Ashlie and her four friends are taken to a shelter not far from where they were.  As the days go on, Ashlie discovers that the CDC had set up the shelter where she is taken two years previously and that the zombie outbreak was a planned study go awry.  Now, she must stop them from "animating" more of the undead before they take over the nation and, eventually, the world. 
     The character of Ashlie, as I may have said before, is like the Ripley of the Alien series.  She's tough but also has a soft spot and a heart for mankind.  There really hasn't been many strong female leads lately.  And speaking of Ripley, I have actually introduced a character in Seekers 2 that would be perfect for Sigourney Weaver.  Hehehe. 
     

Rob Zombie's 'Halloween 2'

Here's another clip I did.  I added the score "Jamie's Nightmare" from Halloween 4 to give this scene a little bit more of a Halloween feel.

Enjoy!

My dream "Halloween" movie

Here is a faux teaser I made for the 9th installment to the original Halloween series.  If only. 

Enjoy!

I used clips from Jamie Lee Curtis' latest film, You Again, and a clip from Hatchet 2.  And the obvious clip from Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers. 

Danielle Harris tribute video

     Check out this little video I made of my favorite actress, Danielle Harris, star of the Halloween series, Hatchet 2, and her up-coming directorial debut, Among Friends.
     Set to the song, Start Me Up by The Rolling Stones, the video is a slideshow of some of the best pictures of America's favorite Scream Queen. 
     Enjoy!!

 

Two new short stories in the works

     While my screenplay, Seekers, is at the Shriekfest Film Festival, I am taking this down time to write two new short stories for a horror website that is producing an anthology series. 
     The first is called Shadow, a ghost story revolving around a girl who learns that the ghost she has been encountering is no Casper.  The second, is a prequel to my screenplay.  In that it is discovered how the zombie's came about and the lives the characters led up until the outbreak. 
     I havent written anything in over a week because I spent so much time writing my screenplay and getting it sent in, that I needed a break from writing to refocus and to give my eyes a rest, hehe. 
     As far as the screenplay, I wont know until September if I am a semi finalist or a finalist.  So keep your fingers crossed.
