[EARLY ACCESS] Since I'm still dealing with some copyright claim issues, I'm not sure when I'm actually going to release this – normally Patreon makes you set a timer so early access posts will go public in x amount of days, but I'm making this a sort of informal, indefinite early access instead. Enjoy!

Tasty things are cooking.
I just finished a hour-long super pretentious politically radical analysis of Ravenous which is very spicy. It's currently languishing in copyright claim hell – so it might be ready tomorrow, or it might be ready three weeks from now, I don't know.
Now that that's done, I'll be hopping back into The Sudbury Devil for a bit to po...

It's my first movie review in – gosh, two years?
What do these three films have in common?

Karl from InRange was kind enough to be my production assistant in my collaboration with Dr. Justin of Esoterica.
The video's about Alesteir Crowley (power bottom) and absinthe. I made sure to give make Herbert West proud with the lighting.

Been puttering around with side projects while I wait for updates on the score of Frozen '50s and the VFX of Sudbury. Don't get too excited though, it's still about a year out from filming.

What should I start with? The bad news? Okay.
The release of Frozen '50s Man 3 is going to be delayed. Due to some work/life circumstances out of his control, Maestro DeRosa hasn't been able to work on the score this past week, which is the only major component of post-production that needs doing.
He works fast, but there's still a major chunk of runtime that needs mu...

Making movies is a giant pain in the ass but it's also the best thing in the entire world.

Klaus didn't end up coming out for this one. I wrote a really funny scene for him, but after going deep into the plight of forcibly sterilized people only to have an SS officer show up and start dabbing to "connect with the youth" felt like tonal whiplash.

Apologies for the radio silence recently. It hasn't been a super eventful month in terms of work – just a lot of stuff slowly chugging away in the background.
But that's about to change. Mardi Gras is over and for Lent, I'm giving up free time. Here are some pics of the new set I built for the first day of the Frozen '50s Man 3 shoot. It's the World Headquarters of Antifa...

Here's a yawny boy.
I hope everybody had a good January! I've been keeping busy, as always.
Pre-production for Frozen '50s Man #3 is well underway. The episode is all cast and we're scheduling our filming dates now for after Mardi Gras – late February, early March. I've been ordering lots of new props and costumes (among other things, a shitload of faux fur and a pa...

I have no expectations at all here, since y'all do enough for me already – but I figured I'd let you guys know that I recently put the crypt closure tablets from Checkmate Lincolnites up for sale on Etsy. Each tablet comes with a fun but legally worthless certificate of authenticity autographed by me. https://www.etsy...

This New Years' Eve was the coolest day of documentary filming I've had in a loooong while.
Goodbye for now, New England. In the words of another resistance movement, tomorrow I'm "on to New Orleans!"

Thanks everybody for your generous continued support of my work. Hope you're all doing okay and are surrounded by people you love.
Here's my holiday present for you – a memed still from The Sudbury Devil. Yes, that's a real line in the movie.
I didn't tell you that Sudbury was a Christmas movie??? Well, it's not. This character is just insane. But here you ...

Here's Sal in the crypt. I've cleaned all the dirt off the floor (it got everywhere) but I haven't had the heart to take the whole thing down yet. A maintenance guy from the property management company came by yesterday – going through the set, I just mumbled something about shooting a short film with my friends, and incredibly, he barely even glanced at it.
Hope everyone is ha...
