Buzzington takes ‘Breath of Hate’

June 10th, 2009

Velvet Hammer Films and ArsonCuff Entertainment have tapped Ezra Buzzington to play the lead in the upcoming, “Breath of Hate”. Last seen opposite Kiefer Sutherland in “Mirrors” and currently in Rob Zombie’s “H2,” Buzzington will collaborate, once again, with director Sean Cain (“Silent Night, Zombie Night”) in this Jack Ketchum-esque horror film.

The Wes Laurie penned script, “Breath” centers around a young woman in the escort business, who on her last job is confronted by a trio of escaped mental patients looking to change the world; one victim at a time. “I can’t wait to wrap my guts around this guy.” Buzzington says. “I get him. Man, do I get him. Every time I fucking drive in LA.”

Buzzington and Cain’s last successful collaboration was on “Someone’s Knocking at the Door”, another horror film Cain produced and Buzzington starred alongside genre vets such as Vernon “Commando” Wells and Lew “The Devil’s Rejects” Temple. It recently had its European premiere at the prestigious Amsterdam’s Fantastic Film Festival.

“Breath” begins filming in late summer. This is the second production out of Wes Laurie’s ArsonCuff Entertainment and Sean Cain’s Velvet Hammer Films who are currently finishing post-production on “Silent Night, Zombie Night.”

Wait… What year is it?

The otherworldly alliance of the Numa Guy and Silent-But-Deadly Productions

June 2nd, 2009

The ladies-only production company, Silent-But-Deadly has teamed with Gary “The Numa Guy” Brolsma, to bring Youtubers another series of shorts about two girls with skewed personalities, bent on vengeance, locked in eternal struggle with the devious cad who’s been pinching their morning paper. 

One girl is Gina, who suffers from a terminal case of Jokerphilia; the other is Jill, a delusional voyeur who whiles her days away in her home-made confessional room, musing about the cosmic ponderables, like, “Why does Gina never wear the same pair of underwear twice?” 

The story is screwball comedy at its most perverse: weird, wild and, strangest of all, largely based on true facts. This oddest of couples is played by producer/writer/directors Rachel Grubb and Brooke Lemke. Between the two of them they’ve made out with Captain Kirk, been devoured by werewolves, swallowed whole by swamp creatures, jilted one of Cosmo’s 50 sexiest bachelors, been gangsters, killed gangsters, kidnapped each other, traveled back in time and into the afterline, and beyond. 

Brolsma, owner of NewNuma.com, guested on “The Today Show,” “The Tonight Show” and “Good Morning, America”; was voted the greatest Internet icon by VH-1; was featured in “Guiness and the New York Times, and is, basically, a much-adored oddball. The show is called “Silly, But Delusional,” and is uploaded on the Numa Network every Tuesday, joining other popular series, such as “Rock That Ride,” “The Kristy Storms Show” and “Soap Athetic”.

Super Undead Doctor Roach

May 8th, 2009

The first production from PollyStaffle.com is the short “Super Undead Doctor Roach.” It was conceived as an entry into the 2009 Las Vegas 48 Hour Film Project. It was brought to life via Polly Staffle Films and Gorify.com.

Writer, director and producer Chad Clinton Freeman, who stayed awake 60 hours throughout the weekend, drew the genre Superhero out of a hat on April 17 to kick the insanity off.

Each entry into the Las Vegas competition had to include: an electrician named Jane or James Switzer, a plate as a prop and the line of dialogue: Just remember, you didn’t hear it from me.

The Polly Staffle crew decided The Electrician should be a villain and the dialogue should be delivered by the film’s hero - a scientist turned undead cockroach. Chad wrote a 7-page script in two hours. He used the prop in the script once, but then it was added in two other times while filming.

The film was shot on April 18 with a cast and crew of twenty or so. The bulk of the project was carried on the shoulders of Director of Photography and Fight Choreographer Michael Su, as well as Co-Producer, Supervising Art Director, Special F/X Makeup and Prosthetics Expert Teresa Fahs and Key Makeup Artist Angela Simpson.

The cast featured Derek Houck as the title role, Juliane Price as his nemisis Eva Kaneeva the Exterminator, Jason Kelly as Sampson the Garbageman and Daniel Nagelhout as James Switzer the Electrician. Also in the mix was Henry Clarke as The Man, Reagan Pfifer as April Sherman the Secretarial Tennis Warrior, Laura Moore as The Chameleon, Rachel Grubb as Anna Snyder and Kristine Wright as Mamma Roach.

The day began at 7:30 a.m. and did not wrap until 4 a.m. All involved were in good spirits throughout the day and most cast and crew members were laughing, giggling, carrying on and having a blast despite the long shoot.

Editing was to begin at 5 a.m. April 19, but due to technical difficulties did not start till 11:30 a.m. Michael did the chopping with Chad at his side. The film was turned in around 9:30 p.m. that night; two hours shy of the competition deadline.

“Super Undead Doctor Roach: The 48 Hour Cut,” featuring the music of Robert Becker, Mankind is Obsolete, Shatterance and Stephen Perry Price, then premiered April 23rd at Brendan Theaters inside The Palms hotel and casino. The short nabbed a runner up Audience Award.

Plans for a director’s cut are currently underway. But in the meantime, the Roach Man infests the online world. The film’s official site will be launching sometime soon at SuperUndeadDoctorRoach.com. Currently the link forwards to the official Myspace page. Production stills and promotional photos can be viewed at Curtis Joe Walker’s site here.

Vote Kaci as Fango’s 2010 Spooksmodel

March 25th, 2009

Vote for Kaci

Click here to vote in Fangoria’s Spooksmodel contest.

PollyStaffle.com and its blog WhatUpThug.com fully endorses Kaci Hansen as our candidate.

Why does she get our vote?

Well, she’s not only gorgeous, she also happens to be a die hard horror fan and completely represents what Fangoria and its Weekend of Horrors are all about.

She’s not a model like most of the potential Spooksmodels and she’s not an aspiring actress. She could be, but she’s not. What she does however is run the Central Valley Horror Club, host horror-related events every month and makes horror-influenced art.

We feel she isn’t in the contest trying to make a name for herself, but instead is a fan that wants to represent Fangoria and its conventions.

So vote Kaci!
