Jessicka Rabid

There’s something wrong about Jessica. This is the Tag line that was use to promote the movie Jessicka Rabid. But the thing surrounding this movie is that the producer of the film, Elske McCain decide to put the movie on the web so anybody can watch it ! Of course you can donate on the website. I’m wondering if this way will work !

A dysfunctional family, the Hoffmans, have been living their lives in a veil of secrecy. Incest, rape are a part of their everyday lives. A product of which, is Jessicka (Elske). After years of nameless abuse of her family and neighbors, Jessicka has been reduced to something less than human. She’s more of a family pet than she is a true member of the family. Jessicka is the tragic character brought up from her surroundings, and suddenly finds her opportunity for revenge. JESSICKA RABID was produced by Elske McCain (GIMMIE SKELTER) who also stars in the title role. Frequent FANGORIA RADIO guest Trent Haaga (TERROR FIRMER, DEADGIRL) co-stars.

Gun Town

Today it’s a little different ! A nice inde horror western movie !  The website of the movie is not bad but I can’t find any summary of the film. But it’s posible to see some review of the film on it so here’s one quotes.

I can hardly wait to see the entire move! I love Tim and Carole
and their “Gun Town” they created. It really has the feel of the old west!
Halloween is gonna be sooooo fun out there:)

I dig a good horror Western as much as the next guy, I just hope this one lives up to its potential. But you gotta give it props for being original! Can’t say I’ve come across a premise quite like that before.

Retro Friday : Timo Rose’s Barricade

After several years apart, old friends Nina and Michael reunite in Germany, accompanied by Michael’s associate, David. The three decide to take a weekend trip into the woods to escape the stress of their lives and relax for a few days. Unfortunately, the woods are inhabited by a long-forgotten family of cannibalistic mountain people – and these three look like the perfect meal.

Release in 2007, Barricade is a really gory film starring Joe Zaso and Raine Brown. The movie is directed by Timo Rose.  Since 2007, Rose directed 8 films.

This is one of the good inde production that I saw. The artwork is also really cool. Jason Beam did a really good job like usual.

Digger Wednesday : Stories of a Gravedigger trailers

Everyone have to start somewhere. Well our starting point was in 2003 when we did our first feature film : Stories of a Gravedigger. With this film, DiggerFilms was born and I was too. Today, for the Digger Wednesday, I upload on the Youtube DiggerFilms channel the 3 teaser of SOAG and the official trailer.

800_001Stories of a Gravedigger was shot in 2003 but the movie premiere was on Friday May 13th 2005. More then 330 persons went to the premiere and it was a really great night.

After, we had some really cool quotes in a lot of website or magazine like this one Michael Gingold did in Fangoria.

The movie features three tales of terror: JUST ANOTHER NIGHT, written and
directed by Steve Villeneuve, about former hospital patients seeking revenge;
LA DIABLE, written and directed by Simon Geraghty, in which six friends travel the titular river and soon come to regret it; and ROOM 66, directed by David Aubin, in which a writer tries to finish his book in a hotel room where strange things begin to happen. The FX for all three were overseen by David Therrien, who also produced the segments along with Villeneuve and Aubin; Aubin and Therrien additionally
created an animated segment.

And Digger Wednesday goes on with a second week in a row…..After The Hit last week……

The Closet, 2006

The Closet is a little film that we shot for fun with Scream Queen and friend Debbie Rochon in 2006. The movie was after screen at the Montreal spasm Film Festival, The Quebec City Vitesse Lumière Film Festival and also at the Fantisia Film Fest. We shot it in about 1h00 when we had nothing to do during a convention week-end and after we went to the restaurant to eat some really good pasta. So you must understand that we didn’t have any equipment really except a video camera and some seeling lamps.  This is what we call Independent !  :)
