60 Second Horror Film

As I said in the previous post, I often create ideas for horror movies in my head. I spew them out and think about them for a day or two, then if I don’t act on them they fade away. A while back I had an idea for a character who stabs everything just to...More Please

I’ve Started My Own Film Festival

Movie TV in Bed

As a filmmaker, you become very opinionated quickly about submitting to and working with film festivals. There was a time when they were valid and even more so, a requirement to get your film seen and hopefully sold. But those days are gone and unless you’re politically connected or have a big name in your...More Please

How To Make A Low Budget Horror Film

Movie

A year ago I set out to make a low-budget horror film. It’s a companion piece to a documentary about cult films and how they came to be. I’ve talked to several actors and filmmakers of cult films and even managed to get a few into my own film. It’s been a fun journey. My...More Please

New Film “Hart of the Mountains” Coming Soon

Movie

2024 was the first year I was hired to shoot a movie that wasn’t my own. I wasn’t sure what the experience would be like, but I’m happy to remote it was pretty swell. A writer named Shannon Scruggs came to me with a script and the artist’s desire to create it. 6 months later...More Please

Will This Be The Year We Finish Ghostumentary 2?

Horror Film Movie

Back in 2015, I produced a Ghost Hunting Documentary called Ghostumentary. My addiction to the many ghost-hunting shows combined with my disbelief of the paranormal led me on a 9-month quest to find out if ghosts just might exist. I learned a lot during that time. Not so much that ghosts are real, but more...More Please

The First Trailer for God Dam

Horror Film Movie videos

As I’ve been mentioning, I’ve been working on a weird project. As addicted as I am to low-budget horror films, I’m just as fascinated by the fact that they get so many views and reviews. So last year I decided to write one. I gave myself a ton of rules, mostly based on how little...More Please

All The Makings of a Low-Budget Horror Film

Horror Film Movie

A few years back I watched a movie called Shark Exorcist. It was exactly what I thought it would be, amazingly bad. So I decided to make an amazingly bad horror film myself. And it’s almost done. I set a few rules. I couldn’t spend more than 5k. I couldn’t audition actors, only use my...More Please

How To Make A Bad Movie … While Really Trying

Movie

Now that Tv in Bed is complete and off for a festival run, it’s time for a new movie. This time it’s two movies for one. I had an idea a while back about attempting to make the worst low-budget horror film you could and sending it off to the wild. It’s time to make...More Please

TV in Bed – Screen shots

Movie TV in Bed

As I get ready to send my film TV in Bed to festivals, I need to capture a handful of screenshots. They ask for 9, and I grabbed too many. So I might as well just post them here.

TV in Bed is Done Filming

Horror Film Movie TV in Bed

During the pandemic, I shot two feature films. It was either really dumb or really ambitious. I’m hoping for the latter. In 2016 I started filming a mockumentary about a reality show surrounding a bunch of mystery hunters. I pieced it together, knew I needed to shoot the ending, and watched life take over. 5...More Please
