It's every film maker's worst nightmare. The lights go up, an uncomfortable silence envelopes the theater. A moderator walks to the front, microphone in hand. "Let's talk about the film you've just seen" he says, innocently enough, and unleashes from the audience a chain reaction of hate-filled...

The life of an indie filmmaker is one of fits and starts: you have a flash of inspiration; you carefully and lovingly coax that spark into a fully formed idea; you motivate your friends and colleagues to join you in making this dream a reality; you toil through the process of production and post...

Since it's February, I thought now would be the perfect time to post my year-end best of list. You know, to beat out all the competition from the rest of those other bloggers and get my list out first to show how smart I am and stuff. Oops. Truth be told, it's just too dang difficult to get my...

After more than a year and almost 40 festival screenings, Enter the Dark's World Tour 2010 - 2011 is finally at an end. It's been a great experience and I've learned quite a few things that will help me as I move forward with new projects. I figured I might as well pass along some of these...

It's been a great run. My little horror film which started out originally as a simple exercise in micro-budget filmmaking has now played in over 30 film festivals worldwide, garnered 6 awards, and introduced me to a whole new family of horror and indie film enthusiasts. Along the way, I've...

We are living in turbulent times my friends. Most of us live under a cloud of uncertainty - an omnipresent gloom that permeates every waking moment. How will I pay my rent? Keep my house? Find a job? What happens if I get sick? What kind of a world will my kids live in? How will our country...

So, it's been a while since I posted about my little bundle of cinematic chills - or about anything for that matter. Seems like "real life" has been taking most of my time lately. My day job as freelance video editor has finally picked up again and since I've been quite slow the past two years,...

So I was in Vegas recently, and while I was there I was stopped not once, but twice by strangers who wanted to comment on the shirt I was wearing. I happened to be sporting my Black Country Communion t-shirt. Who are Black Country Communion you say? Shame... Shame on you for not knowing. Well,...

... you know, like, "San Francisco needs another film festival like it needs another hole in the head." Except in this case, San Francisco really needs this festival, because this is the only bay area film fest that celebrates horror, sci-fi, exploitation and general wackiness. And y'all are...

You probably haven't heard of Chauntal Lewis yet. Hopefully, that will soon change. I was lucky enough to work with her on the indie film, The Commune. She recently took some time off her busy schedule to do this interview with me for Horror Society. Take a sec to read about her inspirational...

I've been so fortunate with the success that Enter the Dark has had so far: screenings around the world, great reviews and multiple awards. More importantly, people really seem to respond to it and have encouraged me to keep going. And therein lies the problem. That dreaded sophomore slump. ...

Big money baby - Big Money!! Who says filmmaking doesn't pay off? My first official check for Enter the Dark from DVD and streaming sales at IndieFlix is a whopper! $21 big bucks! Looks like I can now pay off that line item for Oreos eaten during production of my little horror...
