Jack Daniel Stanley & Mark Johnson's REKINDLED

awesome bro, you have a great imagination for horror/ sci fi, my favorite genres... kick ass poster as well. I'm looking forward to standing beside you on the digital battlefield.
 
Great! I love Better Off Dead. So let me guess the plot. John Cusack is goes back to his roots in 80's teen films only to find out that he's over 40 and can only play the parent roles now. In despair he lights himself on fire by tying six gasoline soaked rabbits to his torso and finding an ignition source at the end of disheartened assassins cigarette. Once alight he realizes his mistake and jumps into strangle accessible vat of goo labeled “biohazard”. After a short blackout he wakes to find himself in a conveniently clear bodybag. But he is not alone. He is surrounded by dozens of hot undead naked chicks in their own conveniently clear body bags. Hilarity and horror ensues. All in 5 minutes.

[FONT=&quot]Congrats on your decision. As always I offer my help and support. How about some high falls, a car chase and some exploding heads?[/FONT]
 
Better Off Dead was actually funny.

The kid on the bike was the best part.

Sorry, thread Hi-Jack.

Great marketing scheme y'got going on, Jack. Very creative.

Hey you stole my script. But with Molly Ringwald. :Drogar-Evil(DBG):
 
I watched the other shorts you've made for the fests here today. Great stuff. Can't wait to see this one. The poster looks better than most made for full length movies

Thanks guys ... sorry I haven't been around.
Had one of my sister's wedding in Dallas last night.
Tonight I am in L.A. where I'm checking out the HVX and DVX bootcamps and where I also had a meeting regarding my first feature (but that's all I can say about that for now) :lipsrseal

But back to more pertinent matters ... check out the teaser polaroid in the first post ... something disturbing is developing there ... :thumbsup:

The developing poster thing is pretty sweet... Great idea! When John said create hype you took it literally!

yeah ... they announced it as an aspect of the contest/competition this time and there are dudes that have had their threads up for almost a month before me ... so I can either whine about the fact that they have had longer to garner attention, or I can try to get some of it. I kinda did like the old days when the starter pistol went off and you had no idea about the horses in the race until then ... but this is fun too though. :)

thanks director mod :thumbsup:

working hard on the script now.

got the arc of it and the ending, just working on the scenes and arc within the time frame.

:thumbsup:
 
Jack, how do you keep coming up with this stuff? This thing already looks amazing. That poster is a work of art. I wouldn't want it hanging on my wall, but it's incredible. If your film has the same tone then we're all in for one heck of a ride.

Can't wait!
 
I can tell you guys.. keep your eyes on this joker... Jack is one of those guys that comes along once inawhile that becomes something big.... He has the juice to make it to the top.

Too much talent in one man! :furious3: :crybaby: lol

Hey JD, I was wondering if there were any sources you turn to for developing your stories. At the bootcamp you talked a bit about the process you go through to develop your stories and was wondering if there was a book or something you would suggest on what makes a story really good and complete.

Personally, I think your shorts are some of the most compelling because of their substance. Technically your films are great, but you never forsake story, and that's what I really appreciate about your films. Any suggestions?
