THE DEVIL'S TOY - a Sprocketboy production

Tarantino made the bold decision to put in a cut of Bowie's "Putting Out Fire with Gasoline" (originally debuted in the 1982 version of Cat People) in his new film, Inglorious Basterds. If you haven't seen the film... watch it!
 
I saw it, I liked it very much - it is extremely funny with great dilogue exchanges and action sequences, back to the Tarantino level we expect... But, it was incredibly silly and totally changed history, which was a shame in my book. I was also not overally happy with the mixing of Western and World War 2 genres.
Still well worth seeing though.

I hope so. I'm up to my armpits in US military gear and Nazi paraphernalia. I'm pretty excited about some of my recent contacts... they will be bringing some much needed production value to the film. I'm pretty sure that this campfire story will turn out to be one startling little flick.
 
Here are some locations I scouted this past week. I'm still looking for better options, but for now these locations are available with the land developer's blessing. My particular favorite is the last shot that I mocked up to use as reference in art direction. Its a 1 acre basement (cellar) built during the 1st world war to manufacture bicycle tires. The first two shots are the front and back of a spaghetti factory.

Great, great, great locations! They're all very atmospheric. I especially love the first picture -- There's something about that kind of sceneries when they're sunlit like that, which takes me back to the 70's and exploitation cinema (aesthetically speaking). :thumbsup:

Here are the lead actors of THE DEVIL'S TOY. The two young boys will be posted here after the shoot is over. Its quite an ensemble.
 
Haha, that's what my oldest said. 'How can you call him Grandpa when he's young?' Well he started as grandpa, so I kept him grandpa.:beer:
