Directed by Sam Thompson

I'll let Sam answer any questions.

[Matt Sconce]

hehehehe this should be very disturbing and fun!

[Jack Daniel Stanley]

OMG I'm imagining something with teeth coming out of that urinal "where I least expect it" awesome, lol.

Welcome :beer:

[MOVIE STUNTS]

That guy looks like he's got alot of green onions in his diet... Or toxic waste.

[Jack Daniel Stanley]

ha .. like he drank a glow stick you mean?

[Mark Johnson]

Crap. My shy bladder just got more shy.

Maybe great minds thing alike?

[VersuS]

Welcome guys! Good luck! Looking forward to this, must be funny as hell!

[Slimothy]

This is giving me "stinging" visuals.

Oh-and my pee has been that bright before. I carried it around in a jar for three weeks.

[Kholi]

LOL. Sorry, I had to say that it's cool that you're playing on words.

I'm sure everyone else caught it--

You're In Trouble
Urine Trouble.

Witty.

[griffin]

My friend used to take 'mega man' pills to lose weight and gain muscle and he said after a week or so of using it, his pee was neon green. I'm thinking the actor in this also used those pills?

[NSumner]

Awesome!!!! Can't wait for some BTS :) : ):)

[SBT7000]

Griffin->
That's interesting, will have to keep the green-pee pills in mind for future use. But for now, I've got enough to worry about with our mutilated-crotch appliances. Thanks for all the support up in here, we're super-close to production and can't wait see other entries.

[Aaron Marshall]

hahahaha great title. This'll be fun.

[EvilTeenIdols]

My weiner shivers in fear...oh wait, that's just a cool breeze.

[SBT7000]

I'd like to get that one song.... "Detachable Penis" except I don't know who made it, I just remember it being on Beavis and Butthead. "Dammit Stewart, tell your mom to get some more nachos!"

[SBT7000]

Speaking nostalgic, anyone here ever see the "Return of the Killer Tomatoes" with the young George Clooney? We're close to getting a guest appearance outta him for "Urine Trouble"

[insanityfw]

good luck guys. you've now given me the courage to move forward with my horror/comedy.

[EvilTeenIdols]

I am a PA about to work on this movie here. The director has asked me to keep journal entries of the production on here. We shoot this Sunday so I'll make sure to have an account of the shoot by Monday.

[SBT7000]

Hey I found this restroom sign and took a picture of it. Seems as though our stars have found their way into the real world and are now affecting the signage.

What in the hell is a "mutilated-crotch appliance"? :eek:

Maybe I don't want to know.

Damn it! Now I'll have the song stuck in my head all day. :)

That tune's by King Missle, BTW.


John G.

[-zach-]

Detachable Penis is by King Missile.

[SBT7000]

a mutilated crotch appliance may be many things... latex and blood, pizza and latex, torn-up condoms filled with pudding. But a detachable penis, now thats pure bliss

[Kholi]

Still do a chuckle-laugh when I read "urine trouble." As I mentioned before, the double-play on words is neato.

I have NO IDEA where you're going with it but it stands to be interesting as it is. Just... I hope nothing crawls into someone's penis. -=(

Should I even ask what your prime location is?

[Tom Marshall]

If you shake it more than 3 times, you're playing with it...

Hey, that would make a great tagline... :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

[cinealma]

If you shake it more than 3 times, you're playing with it...

Hey, that would make a great tagline... :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)


How about,

If you shake more than 3 times, you're dead.

[Kholi]

The burning sensation is the least of your worries...

[Tom Marshall]

How about,

If you shake more than 3 times, you're dead.

Yeah, that's good... that really should be the tagline.

[Matt Sconce]

What about this....

"Urine Trouble" It hides within....

[SBT7000]

Several other tags I thoght of (which are eerily similiar to what you all are talking...)
Shake, Shake, Your Dead
Mr. Happy No More
...A Different Kind of Burn

But I really like, "You'll Never Pee Again" that just cracks me up, so does the gratuitous use of "wiener"
OK OK.... I wanted this project to be shrouded in a bit of mystery, but I'll give a few aspects away. Most of the horror takes place in a public restroom, which could been guessed, and No, nothing crawls up a penis. Cmon, that's just messed up. But we do plan to operate on a similiar level of taboo.... more to come, big shoot this Sunday.

[Tom Marshall]

I think he should do a fake critic writeup on it that says "...you'll never pee in a urinal again after watching this." or "...you'll always pee sitting down after seeing this movie."

[Kholi]

=( I pee sitting down...

What's wrong with that?

[Tom Marshall]

Oh, I'm not saying it's a BAD thing...

[Jack Daniel Stanley]

Critics Review of Urine Trouble

This movie will grab you where it counts and and shake until it squeezes every last drop of terror out of you. Just when you think everything will come out OK, you'll find yourself clinched without any hope that relief will ever flow. This film will leave even the most macho man robbed of his manhood. So utterly horrifying is this film that even the devoted club of horror fans eagerly awaiting its release will have significantly fewer members after viewing. See this film at your own risk.

[Kholi]

For a second there I thought you were gonna write--

"And just when you thought everything came out OK? You pull up your pants and you walk out and more dribbles down your thigh."...

APparently that only happens to me.

[Edgen]

ha!! its great to see another one out there with a 'dirty mind' down in the gutters. Cept... of course yours looks to be literal with the 'john'. :) Mine's just one big brwon pond.

Looking forward to seeing your film!

/j

[SBT7000]

YO Koli>
It sounds as though you got some major Urine Troubles! HAHAHHAHAH Ahhh... puns. no really, I like that write up. Especially: "See this film at your own risk." That would get me into a theater instantly. Our monster has finally been designed. Pics may be posted soon, not sure if I wanna give it all away, though.

[Tom Marshall]

Hey, there's another idea for a tagline... "Urine trouble... unleash the monster." :Drogar-Evil(DBG):

[cinealma]

Ha! How about:

"Urine trouble... it ain't the monster in your trousers you have to worry about."

Urine Trouble: How Not to take a Whizz

[Tom Marshall]

Hey, we should team up and write tag lines for the studios! :thumbsup:
I'm with ya! :beer:

[mameragex]

This is exactly why you should always google your idea first, then titles...Just to make sure nobody has the same exact name.

But on the good note. Since this is for the Horror Fest I'm sure seejay1031's idea will have a better spin to it.

Good luck buddy:thumbup:

[SBT7000]

I was well aware that the phrase "Urine Trouble" isn't 100% original. Off the top of my head, I know of a Sage Francis CD... "Still Sick... Urine Trouble" and without googling, I KNOW its been used in a mess of other places. Most likely some wacky newspaper headlines. BUT, what IS 100& original is our ghouls, our creepy critters and monsters that are the culprits in this short. No one has done this before. You all may be amazed by this sudden wave of originality. All of these other movies look relatively promising, and I love seeing some severed limbs in screen grabs. But what gets me are MONSTERS. I wanna see some ambitious wackiness here, folks. Otherwise, it looks as though our flick is far off on another plane of horror.

[EvilTeenIdols]

I was there. I saw first hand the blood shed, the twisted minds, and the fear that came over everyone there. Now in my dreams all I hear is "More blood goddamnit!! More blood!" This is by far the most disturbing shoot I've ever been on. Now when I pee, I have to sit down.

[seejay1031]

But on the good note. Since this is for the Horror Fest I'm sure seejay1031's idea will have a better spin to it.


I cannot take credit for this idea. This is the brainchild of our Director (SBT7000) Sam Thompson. I am the Director of Photography.

In other news- we had our first of two days of shooting yesterday. All went well, although there is an aweful lot of blood. But I was promised it mostly fake... mostly.

[SBT7000]

Yeah, I thought of the idea one night when I was peeing in the middle of the night: Takin' a whizz, nothing too special... I always peed with the lights off as to not burn my freshly awakened retinas (I have excellent aim). Anyways, OUT OF NOWHERE comes a breadbox-sized furry monster. It flew from the toilet past my Area 51 then up and out the window. It damn near took my wiener right along with it! True Story.

[Edgen]

friggin' disgusting!! LOVE iT! What is it?.. a burnt turd? :)

/j

[SBT7000]

thats funny, and makes me think your REALLY into poo

[SBT7000]

Raw footage of Urine Trouble coming soon...

[Jack Daniel Stanley]

SBT ... FYI there's only a couple of No No's and posting actual footage from the film is one of them.

I think you mean raw grabs though ... which is cool and eagerly anticipated!

[SBT7000]

JDS> Thanks for the warning, wouldnt wanna get disqualified after this much. But, i was going to post raw footage from our shoot. Not anything that would make it into the movie, but some sort of inbetween-takes kinda-footage. thats cool, right?

[Lingothree]

That picture is great!

For this Fest we are going to try something a little different. We are going to allow the hype machine to come out. What does that mean ?

It mean's you can pimp and promote your film. There is a catch

Film's can only be promoted here at dvxuser inside your own unique threads. No external site(s) or link's are permitted (Unless a video or image host) Like the indiviual film discussion's, we will have the same for the Horrorfest films.

You can showcase storyboards, script segments, final score's or in progress, production still's, audition's, headshot's, behind the scene's video and making of specials, art-work and conceptual design, set dressing, location's and even One Sheet's (the Film's poster) but one thing you cannot do:

NO FOOTAGE FROM ACTUAL FILM CAN BE SHOWN UNTIL THE OFFICIAL FESTIVAL START.

Keep in mind, like all good film's, what you show can help or hurt you; giving away the plot point and secret may not be in your best interest or maybe hyping it too much may let some people down. Consider this an excercise is marketing and promotion for future project's, but

NO FILM FOOTAGE FROM THE ACTUAL FILM!

Th only Footy allowed is behind the scene's and interview type stuff. Last time said:

NO ACTUAL FOOTAGE FROM THE FILM IS ALLOWED UNTIL THE FESTIVAL PREMIERE

I think that's Ok ... sounds like BTS to me.

But I heave to make a disclaimer with this. If you read the rules above as I do then post away. But DON'T DO IT based on anything I say. Even though it seems cool, I would hate to mislead someone accidently and have them get DQed so if you have the slightest doubt PM John_Hudson and make sure.

Between takes stuff seems kosher by my reading though - AND I WANT TO SEE IT!

[SBT7000]

Thanks for the objective info, appreciate it.

Not sure if its clear: That above frame is NOT, i repeat, NOT from Urine Trouble, but from something seperate, a feature called, Pink Crane Knob. I'm helping our special efx guy shoot the rest of his movie in return for some model-making and blood spray-work on Urine Trouble. Basically I'm shooting two horror flicks at once here. I just thought horror fans may enjoy the general nastiness that Urine Trouble has at its disposal. thanks for the feedback

[jdraimer]

Last movie I did with this guy, he made people chew on raw cow stomach. Now a urine movie! I can only imagine!

[SBT7000]

RAW?! We cooked it over the campfire... well, maybe it was just well defrosted. But who wants to chew on frozen cow stomach, anyways. thats just gross.

[MOVIE STUNTS]

A few drops of methane blue, found at most pet stores will make your best friends pee blue for a few days (non-toxic) hell use a whole bottle.

[SBT7000]

So far in this discussion I've learned how to make pee two different colors. Good ol' internet!

[EvilTeenIdols]

So I get a call from the director last night. "Our lead has dropped out, we need a replacement." Of course I agree and yet I get no response. "So, what should we do?" I ask. "Well, you kind of look like our guy. Why don't you do it?". I think about it and decide maybe I should step in and help in this way. Then I ask, "When will we reshoot that first scene then?". Silence..."Hello?". "Like I said you guys kind of look a like so it shouldn't be a problem."

To be continuted...

(not that you lost your lead, but the conversation)

KEEP US POSTED ON THIS ONE!

Good Luck :thumbsup:

[SBT7000]

ANOTHER POSTER YA'LLL!!!!!
I figure if I keep making these posters, the 5min movie will shoot itself.

Cmon people, check my NewKids on the Block horror

[Jaime V]

I like it...retro toilet horror.

[TheatreGuy]

"stunk to a new low" That's GREAT!

This is going to ba a very fun fest to watch!

[SBT7000]

Speaking of toilet horror... last night I ate a bunch of bratwurst and grilled corn on the cob, along with that I drank like 7 beers. And after drinking some coffee just now, i think my horror movie just shot itself. RIGHT INTO THE TOILET

If you'd tried to hold it in, you could've made the sequel to Urine Trouble...called it "Prairie Doggin': Curse of the 'Wurst " or something.

:grin:

[SBT7000]

Thats incredibly funny, but my guts hurt everytime I laugh at "curse of the 'wurst"... they're still sore from the movement.

[Justin Kuhn]

It flew from the toilet past my Area 51 then up and out the window. ...True Story.

"my Area 51," hah.

[SBT7000]

Quick Update from the Director's Log:
Serious setbacks. I'm unable to export the 1st half of project to our sound designer due to a deep, dark ghetto that's been growing inside my computer. Our composer is having similiar, but more viral issues with his computer and is unable to get me the music. Our main actor's employer (I won't drop names... BEST BUY) has been quite late in supplying next week's schedule to him, putting off our shoot and the location's reservation. Also, while making his feature film, our special effx guy seems to have fallen in love with one of the many random girls he pulls off of the sidewalk to act in his movie. He has been unreachable for a few days, and is holding on to all of the foam rubber, latex, fake blood and the finished mutilated crotch appliance needed for this weeks shoot. More to come....

[Jack Daniel Stanley]

Man ... whew ... sounds like Ur ... ine Trouble

sorry couldn't resist.

Seriously sorry to hear that. We've had a ton of pitfalls too. Hope you get through it all :thumbsup:

[SBT7000]

no big whoop

[SBT7000]

Directors Log:
Our location is no longer available. I guess the Amtrak station doesn't wanna give up the mens room for 4 hours without having another, unisex bathroom as backup for dudes who have to pee. Setbacks galore!

[SBT7000]

Scored a new bathroom location, this time in a downtown office building. Current setback: main actor's face is ALWAYS stubbly, which doesn't work well for face-casting. he's worried he'll get his face-pubes ripped right out. I told him that would work well for the movie, but he's not that committed. dammit

[seejay1031]

The second and final shoot was completed today. Copious amounts of blood. The smell... well if we were able to distribute smell-a-rama cards along with a download... uggh... just be glad that we can't. But the shoot went beautifully and we almost finished at our scheduled time!

And a DVX Geeks horror of all horrors!!! We forgot to bring a protective UV filter for the dvx, and blood was seriously everywhere. Living on the edge. the stupid edge.

Stay tuned for BTS shots and some more info on our very cool monster.

Grats on finishing up your shooting and overcoming your setbacks. Can't wait to see what this is all about :-)

[cinealma]

Ditto. Can't wait!


John G.

[Brandon Rice]

whoo hoo can't wait to see some stuff.

[TheatreGuy]

I wanna see some BTS in the bathroom!!! (um, well... you know what I meant.)

Congrats guys!

[Tom Marshall]

I hate it when locations fall through...

[SBT7000]

The smell was so thick I could see it. Props to our main actor, when we had him lay on the ground he got bits of the "monster" in his hair, which then fell into his eye after standing up. It stung, I'm sure, all that paradichlorobenzene...
Behind the scene pics will be posted later today!

[TheatreGuy]

Man, that is a nasty image.

I thought of you guys last week when I got hired to shoot a car race. Didn't know what I was in for and it turned out to be a rinky-dink short track way out in the boonies. The place was O-L-D. I went to the restroom and it was one of those cinder block structures, poured concrete floor and rusty porcelain fixtures with a "thick smell." The best part was that the latrine was one of those long trough styles with the rusty pipe running the length of it and a steady drip of water dropping from a few holes. Just nasty. But I thought of you guys and the "monster" that could come out of that thing!

Almost took a picture of it but I didn't even want to take my camera in there!

[SBT7000]

That sounds like a beautiful place, theatre guy... I bet you're glad THIS didn't happen to you:::::::
http://www.dvxuser6.com/uploaded/7510/1158544950.gif

[TheatreGuy]

OMG... OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why did I look at that before going to bed?!??!?!?!??!?!!


F*CK!

Don't Do That!!!

[SBT7000]

Our main actor just called and has expressed that he misses his wiener.

[Tom Marshall]

That's disgusting

[SBT7000]

One more for the ultimate hardcores->

kiss him and win 1000$!

[Edgen]

damnit... now i've got to stay up another hour or so to get that image out of my head.

ow. oww owie.

Awesome grabs.. just friggin' gruelsome!


/j

[Fugitive]

Good thing it looks a little fake, or else...

[TheatreGuy]

Oh man, I signed off immediately after seeing the pic above in post #91 (guy with bloody underwear).

That was too much.

Great grab. (or bite! or whatever you want to call it!)

I think I'm looking forward to your film.

[Jaime V]

ok that's one of the most horrible things I've seen here. Reminds me of the bathroom scene in "I Spit On Your Grave". I imagine this guy would freak out about as much.

[jdraimer]

Those screen grabs are amazing! Keep up the good work bro.

[Brandon Rice]

Ugh... Ugh... Guh!!!

[SBT7000]

I figure so far we've hit two major taboos: Gettin' your genitalia mutilated and smashing your teeth in. Several more to come, watch out...

[TheatreGuy]

No thanks! Those two are enough! I wait for the film!!! :)

[EvilTeenIdols]

The director is a special kind of person. And when I mean special that could mean many different things but one is he just doesn't have the same mental boundaries as the rest of us. If only you could see his ideas on making this a feature. It pushes every boundary whether it be visually, socially, and maybe even morally.

*Special note: He doesn't mean that last reply about dead babies and bestiality and such. But then again, he could surprise me.

[VersuS]

where is John Waters when you need him....

HEY! I came up with a nice title for a sequel or something ---> M(y)arse Attacks!

It can be a Sci-Horror-Fest kinda thing

[SBT7000]

As some may have noticed, we've been rather secretive about what exactly our horror short is about. Soon enough, we'll unleash the true beast behind Urine Trouble, and believe me, its originality, grotesqueness and familiarity to most members of this thread will shock those who dare to comprehend. have a good day! pics coming soon....

[hvxabuser]

great title!!!

[hvxabuser]

also gross!

[SBT7000]

First Hint: Our monsters take abuse but don't get shat upon

[Charli]

OMG did that guy just flash me! ouch.

[spooky138]

I hate to be the party pooper (so to speak) but has no one else noticed that the title is grammatically incorrect? Shouldn't the title be: You're In Trouble? I mean, people might be turned off by the movie if the filmmakers' lack of attention to detail is so blatant as to be apparent in the title. :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

[jdraimer]

who is this guy!?

[conrad_johnson]

That guys weiner is way smaller than mine......at least now anyway.

[Tom Marshall]

Some monster went Loreanna Bobbit on his a**... :D

[SBT7000]

I'm pleased to see people are picking up the correct, medical terminology for a man's "3rd leg." All is going as planned!

[TheatreGuy]

You know SBT700, your short is short a few things... like the thing in that guys bloody shorts! And that's what scares me!!!

You've got a real horror flick on your hands. Can't wait to see it. (I think!)

[SBT7000]

This the last person to get slaughtered in our SHORT, my buddy Pauly

I've got the big last shoot today. Crew consists of: Me, the Special EFX guru, the camera, all our props, a miniature bathroom, rubber foam chunks of flesh, 4 gallons of runny blood and about 1 gallon of goopy blood. oh yeah, some broken teeth, too. Oh yeah, and a mutilated wiener.

Ah there's nothing like passing your first kidney stone! :Drogar-Smoke(DBG):

My uncle did that once. Its strange knowing people have peed rocks

[Ralph Oshiro]

This film is gonna be the damned scariest of them all . . . to all us GUYS!

[seejay1031]

This film is gonna be the damned scariest of them all . . . to all us GUYS!

Admittedly, the primary threat of our film is against males, our monster is much more "used" to them. Females get the violent end of the stick too often anyways in horror film. Probably cause the contrast of femine beauty and gore is more striking than masculine dumpyness and gore. We avoid this problem by going straight for the insecurities. But the fairer sex might not be safe in the rumored upcoming feature film. hehe.

In other news>
The final shoot was done on Sunday and was all gore pickup and reshoots. I saw the footage yesterday. It takes the gore from a 7 to a strong 9.5. I think it also ups the comedy a notch. I laughed and then I threw up a lung. Its OK cause I got 2.

[SBT7000]

I've been editing nonstop and am getting a little bugged out. The 9.50-gore rating isn't quite whats bothering me, its the 12.5 Taboo Rating. Seriously folks, I'm almost embarassed to put this thing out. Its gonna freak people out

[SBT7000]

Its weird how this footage is SO grotesque to anyone else, but to those involved, the images are labors of love... WE LOVE MUTILATED WEINERS sing it with me

[Beat Takeshi]

This looks like its going to be good. I like "different".

[GTP]

dude...gross FX!!

[The Anti]

Congradulations Sam. I cannot wait to see the finished project and please know that your the only person I want to make soundtracks for.
Yours Cruelly,
The Anti

[SBT7000]

Not too many internet sites get graced with that guy's presence. Thanks much, The Anti, we will forge forward with many projects I'm sure.

[seejay1031]

Uploaded and I'm going to bed.

[spidey]

lol i love this movie.

[Charli]

FEEDBACK/SPOILERS:

Script: Funny, funny, funny.

Direction: I didn't notice it which is a good thing.

Acting: The jerk played the jerk like a jerk, good job. The nervous hero made me
believe he was nervous. Weak links were the girls.

Score: The music was cute however, it set the tone that this was a 'short' film.

OVERALL: Omg this was a complete riot. I would have preferred a scream when
they saw their friend all bloodied, and wasn't too crazy on the end at the waiter,
the overall story though was - enjoyable. Made me laugh. Made my staff laugh.
Made my hubby laugh. We laughed and we laughed. Best line: I need to wash
my hair!

[Michael_Petro]

wasn't sure if I was supposed to laugh or cringe so i did both at the same time :) You can have your cake and IT will eat you too :)



I gotta go wash MY hair ...hahahahahahha

[cinealma]

OMG! This was a GOOD one. Kevin Smith, eat your heart out!

Yeah, the dude in the pink shirt played the part to a tee. Some of the bathroom stuff was kind of cheesy (the busted teeth on the sink), but most of it was hilarious. I really like the part when he crushed a urinal cake into powder and the other urinal cake looked over at his buddy like, WTF? This one's for Larry, you SOB!

And I liked the pink "Urinal Cake Vision".


John G.

[jpbankesmercer]

Acting: Not bad but if I lost my d&^k, man I would be screaming!
Script: Fun.
Direction: Nice job.
Music: Suited the piece, I LOVED the cakes voice!
Editing: Flowed
Lighting: Solid.
Loved: The idea. The cakes, the cakes! Bloodied stump ouch! Those evil cakes.
The cakes teeth!
Hated: Nothing much, maybe the thickness of the blood but just being picky!
Overall: Guys I really laughed, you definitely have your own style going on keep it up!

Really enjoyed it, thanks!

the best actors were the ones who weren't actors. Something I continue to learn. Thanks for the comments, ya'll!

[VersuS]

My God!! That is hilarious!!!!! I cant take it seriously but its a video I ll be showing off to my friends forever!!!!!!!!!!

ps. man on a more serious note, you had some great music (even though I m getting tired of these pianos in here) and your intro was professional with the credits layered on your images...like a real movie....I really dug your intro....it could have been part of a major production!

[gwmesler]

WTF?!!! Somebody find out where this guy lives and lock him up!!! What kind of a sick, twisted, demented mind thinks up this stuff? I was shocked. I stared in horror at this movie..... well, most of the time I was cracking up, actually. This is definitely the funniest thing I've seen yet. You are going into my top three. Not just because it was freaking hilarious, but because the filmmaking was pretty darn good, the effects worked, and the acting was decent (especially the dickhead in the urinal cake colored Polo).

[SBT7000]

The song, "Urinal Birthday Cake" was done by The Anti (www.myspace.com/theantionline) He does wonderful cock-pop death-rock soundtracks, including one for my earlier movie, UNSETTLED: Worlds Only Zombie and Pilgrim Movie. Oh yeah, if anyone's looking for me I live in the Midwest. We have Horror EVERYWHERE.

[n8ture]

I now bring offerings of food for the urinal mints whenever I go out. :)

This has to be the funniest flick of the entire fest.

[Cory_Doggett]

I must say this was one of the funniest things I have seen in a long time. You got something right that MOST people in this contest cant, and thats an entertaining movie! you should be proud for being one of the few.

I have to give you guys props.


EDIT:

Oh yeah the douche bag line = Classic

[Mark Harris]

Never thought I would say this, but for the first time, when it comes to urinating in public restrooms, I wish I was a girl.

[Kyle Stebbins]

You got something right that MOST people in this contest cant, and thats an entertaining movie!

Actually most of the movies in the fest are awfully entertaining... not sure whether this comment was justified or not.

Great work on the movie, guys. I'm terrified of the urinal cakes now!!!

[Edgen]

I'll never look at toilet freshners the same way again. Thanks buddy.

/j

[Kyle Stebbins]

i just rewatched it. man, guys on the site HAVE to be cringing.... MAN!

[SBT7000]

I like movies that physically change what you think about everyday objects, such as urinal cakes. I want people to think about this whenever they take a pee (just need to think of a female equivalant, double the audience!). I really like that movie, The Money Pit.

[Matt Sconce]

Okay Okay.......I almost didn't watch this due to ghost pains from even thinking about the screen grabs, but I scraped up the courage and clicked play. I then proceeded to laugh a lot! this film is definitely one of the most entertaining shorts here. I loved the little urinal cakes making weird noises and frothing. this is hilarious and could DEFINITELY become a cult B horror movie!!!!!

[SBT7000]

Thanks, the feature script is halfway done.

[wesley]

hahha attack of the unrinal cakes. very funny and not bad either.

good job

[Cory_Doggett]

Actually most of the movies in the fest are awfully entertaining... not sure whether this comment was justified or not.



Well you did have something right in that statement you made, and that was the word awfully. they entertained awfully.

So this is where I have to disagree....I found most of the movies in the fest actually quite boring. so in point I did not find them entertaining( except a few of course) and that is completely justified

[Kholi]

Review | POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT! I watch the movies first time around strictly for enjoyment, second and third for review.

Another funny entry with some CRITTERS worthy special effects. A horribly cheesy idea taken to a different level.

Script - Terrible. LOL. I'm sorry but it was probably the worst idea ever. However, you had funny dialogue going on. A line that comes to mind is "he's probably taking a big dump!" and "what happened to his weiner!?". Just a bad script, dude.

Direction - Suprisingly decent. Your camera action in the beginning was pretty good. When you ended up within the constraints of the bathroom it falls apart, for the most part. Coverage on the freaky urinal cakes was actually pretty darned good, though. You had a creative Urinale Cake POV shot going on in the urinal. Overall this aspect was pretty surprising given the material.

Acting - Your urinal cakes upstaged your humans. Your two guys were good, two girls were pretty bad. Your "jerK" was the best actor of all. And your married couple weren't too bad with reactions.

Cine/Lighting - Something tells me you didn't have enough space/time to light the diner as well as you wanted too. Maybe not enough funds. It wasn't bad by any means but I see an odd contrast of light to dark between your subjects and your background; it feels like the background should've been darker, not lighter. Otherwise I've got no complaints.

Editing - Whoooo your cuts took forever. Stuck on things too long. I'd have to say that it could be tightened for pacing, right now it's a little laggy. For what it's worth, I think that this could help you out some.

Sound - Easily one of the worst parts of this. Your creature's snarls and grumbles outshine everything else in this short. The diner is way too airy and I hear too much unwanted "noise", and the dialogue's a little muffled. This is me speaking from Headphone experience. I do have to say that your little Urinal Demons sounded just like CRITTERS, which works. The score just didn't cut it for me. THen again it made it funnier so I guess it worked.

Special Effects/Art Direction/Wardrobe - Your puppet Urinal Cakes should win something for sure. These are some of the best creatures in the fest. I dunno how the heck you did it, maybe you faked the size? But they're CRITTERS worthy and I loved CRITTERS to begin with. I also think your destroyed male groin was pretty nasty. Pretty bold too. Blood was way too painty on the girls face, but worked on the floor and elsewhere. I think your special effects outshined everything else in this.

Scariest Moments - The Urinal Demon with the green crap in it's mouth. THat was just gross.

Overall consensus - A horrible, funny concept taken to the next level for sure. I think if you applied your critter/urinal demon creation techniques in a more serious fashion, coupled with your cine-quality in the beginning you could do something pretty damned decent. This was in no way as bad as I thought it was going to be, and kicked a lot of ass in the creature creation department. Thanks for solidifying the reason I never use Urinals to begin with; I'm a stall-with-door kinda guy, anyway. Thanks for exhibiting!

[J.R. Hudson]

Peter Jackson would be proud. I am more or less on the same page as Kholi on this one. The drunk dude was cracking me up; I enjoyed the prod value of an actual location with more than a cast of 2

You're not getting terribly high marks on this one from me; but I still enjoyed it

[Kholi]

Agreed. Between your actual Urinal Demons and the Location with all the extras and employees, that all seems pretty costly. I'd be interested in knowing what your budget was.

[EvilTeenIdols]

$100 was the realtive budget of the short.

[Slappydappy]

Your movie didn't really qualify as horror, but neither did half of the submissions so it doesn't matter.

I like your short. It was simple, coherent, and didn't take itself seriously. Plus, it was original. Urinal cakes killing people? It doesn't get more original than that.

It was refreshing to get to Urine Trouble and have a laugh.

[J.R. Hudson]

What qualifies as horror ?

[Slappydappy]

Movies that cause horror.

Horror - an overwhelming and painful feeling caused by something frightfully shocking, terrifying, or revolting; a shuddering fear.

[VersuS]

Ok...I ve seem frightening, I've seen shocking, I've seen terrifying, and I've seen revolting.

I even saw funny!

So yeah, 80% of the films has at least one of the above, some have combos...its like McDonalds in here...

[J.R. Hudson]

Movies that cause horror.

Horror - an overwhelming and painful feeling caused by something frightfully shocking, terrifying, or revolting; a shuddering fear.

Most of the films attempted that. Even Hollywood can barely accomplish that definition anymore.

[Slappydappy]

I agree, it's almost impossible to pull off.

The Descent could have been a great new horror film but then they screwed it up halfway through. Oh well.

[SBT7000]

I figured the idea of getting your weiner bit off would make anyone shudder. And thanks for recognizing the Critters reference, that was definately one of my inspirations. Along with Peter Jackson, of course. Now Slappy, isn't "Critters" a horror movie? As for the budget, we used what we had. That included our DP's workplace and couch cushions for urinal cakes.

[Ralph Oshiro]

I'm actually too scared to view this film.

[Kyle Stebbins]

I'm actually too scared to view this film.

Go watch Flesh, then you'll be ready to watch anything. :huh:

[Ralph Oshiro]

I watched "Flesh" while eating a steak, rib eye--RARE. Anything showing a wee-wee getting sliced off scares the pee outta me.

[Matt Sconce]

You gotta watch this! It is great!

[Ralph Oshiro]

I laughed, I cried, I peed my pants!

[mameragex]

I thought it was funny that dude had just got his tool bit off but he was still silently trying to explain to his date "It's not what it looks like". Also, I did squinch at the sight. It does make you look twice into urinal before just whippin out Mr happy.:thumbup:

[JoshuaNitschke]

I am so repulsed.

But I'm still laughing so hard.

[TheatreGuy]

Okay, I have to tell you that I have WAITED to watch this film because I thought that it was going to disturb me... as a guy.

It wasn't as bad as I had feared. The humor in your story kept me from imagining this happening to me. Thank you for the humor. It works!

I loved the full glasses of water in the opening shots. It made me have to go to the bathroom myself just watching this guy wince and drink.

Very funny "bad date" business. Made me laugh. The guy in the pink polo was perfect butthole!

I loved the use of your extras. The shot on the "dorks" on the line was great. You have a great feel for humor.

The bathroom scene... well, that was just... sick. I mean, WTF?

I knew that you had a urinal creature, but I NEVER guessed it was the cakes! Even after seeing the cakes, I didn't think that THEY were the culprets!!!

Very funny. Thank you for keeping it fun.

The SFX were a valiant attempt. I couldn't have pulled that off. Still could be better, but not by me.

Music worked. Happy Birthday Cake... priceless!

The lighting at the table in the guy in the pink polo could have been better. The right side of him was rather dark.

All in all, I am glad that I "bit" the bullet and watched.

Good fun!

Congrats on the film!!!

Ted

[Matthew B. Moore]

Damn it! Damn it! This film is nasty, silly, gross, goofy, and a whole bunch of other slappy words and that is just the way I like it.

Thank you for making me laugh out loud!

More fun than most of the films

[kimko]

it's funny i always think about how i hate those scent tablets because when you urinate on them that strong smell comes up and grabs you by the nose and you want to puke. this was funny and gross and it won't be in the top 10....but i guarantee every guy here who goes into the stall to do his thing is GOING TO REMEMBER THIS SHORT!

[SBT7000]

Films, especially shorts, SHOULD be fun.

[hvxabuser]

this is a fun film. i love the other actor in it he wasa great at keeping me laughing. i enjoed it so much its my number on entertainment vaule wise. great job!

[arielman]

lmao...Penis eating pucks..Man's worst nightmare !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like the Humor in this..hahaha after the girl sees the guy holding whats left of his...she is coveredf in Blood and she walks out as if nothing happened ..lmao..

Like Kimko said ..now that every guy has seen this ..he always think of this short the next he visits the stall and eyes those Penis eating Pucks in there ...

Marketing at it's best!!

Still love those killer cakes, best of luck guys!

[TheatreGuy]

Hey stb700, congratulations on your film! OUTSTANDING! Gotta say...

Best of luck to you!

I've had a blast!

[Lingothree]

I can recognize a fellow Minneapolitan's work.

dOOOshbag. As only a minnesotan can say it.

This looked great.

[Aaron Marshall]

This looked great.

This movie was great. It was one of the best in the fest. It didn't try to tell an emotional story, or make us think about current events or socio-economical bullshit. It got straight to fabricating an illogical fear of urinal cakes. It was that absurdity that made this film good horror.

Your FX looked great. Your cinematography was awesome. I was scared by those little urinal cakes. The next time I use a public restroom I can guarantee you I will be thinking about your film. I'll be laughing, but in the back of my mind hoping one doesn't latch on to my "wheener". That's good horror.

Great job!

[SBT7000]

Thank you fellow internet people. I'm glad its recognized how we weren't going for anything heavy and the storyline is simple, basically real-time.
