Terror at Crimson Creek

fury Terror at Crimson Creek Terror at Crimson Creek is a new found footage horror film by Justus League Films.  Director Cherokee Hall did a Roger Corman by shooting the main bulk of the film just under 36 hours.  It was a lot of fun, a lot of hard work, and of course several roadblocks by some actor/production gremlins always makes the process interesting.  The amazing cool thing is we got the film in the can with a large cast, incredible sequences, and an awesome film when the smoke clears.  Besides production side, I did a brief cameo as a sinister guard of an insane asylum.  I also shot a behind the scenes short.  Here are some of pics I took on set as well as some frame grabs.  Worth a look for fans of Spandex and Monster.

The first time lord?

the first Dr. Who William Hartnell The first time lord?   Before William Hartnell started his run as the iconic time lord for Doctor Who, there was a show that had some of the elements that would be explored in more detail in Doctor Who.   Roy Steffensen - star/writer of Captain Z-Ro This show was called Captain Z-Ro, and its hero could travel in space and time.  It was originally broadcast live in the San Francisco area almost a decade earlier, and would introduce many of the concepts that would be used in Doctor Who, so you could argue that Captain Z-Ro was in effect the first time lord. Captain Z-Ro was a children's show, and would feature a 'mentor' role which was Captain Z-Ro and his 'companion' role which was the teen called Jet.  Like Doctor Who, the Captain would witness and influence historical events and he and his companion would get into adventures.   Captain Z-Ro was shot simply with an nonexistent budget, with at most four ac...

EBE aka 'Mona Lisa' Apollo 20... secret mission for moon aliens? The last manned mission to the moon was Apollo 17.  Budget concerns grounded the last three Apollo flights.  That's the official version, but there had been grumblings for years afterward about NASA and some funny business on the moon. Apollo 20 Sometime about in 2007 a man who identified himself as Rutledge started posting youtube videos of his alleged involvement in a secret mission to explore an ancient alien space craft on the moon.  Apollo 18 was a trial run, and Apollo 19 was lost to tragedy with an impact with meteorite.  Apollo 20 was a secret mission to explore the alien space craft supposedly spotted by Apollo 15.

The Creeping Terror, 300 DVDs for Zeppo, and Shoki's bag

The Creeping Terror (1964) The Creeping Terror A bizarre science fiction horror film hybrid from the 1960's which also boasted a strange genesis.  On the surface it is about a slug creature that terrorizes the town from a crashed flying saucer.  Another creature on the ship also attacks those who enter the space craft.  It is deduced that these space slugs are mindless creatures and with a handy grenade, the creeping terror is destroyed.  Unfortunately a signal was sent to another galaxy, and it might be bad for the human race, but the extreme distance means it will be hundreds or thousands of years before the slug creatures return. the monster The creeping terror eats! Production This film was in the golden era of independent films, where a quick monster cheapie could in theory brings in lots of money when it was screened in theaters.  Enter ex con and conman Vic Savage who directed it, produced, and edited the film under the alias of A....

Elske Mccain and Ouija board magic

Elske McCain and Ouija board magic Actress/model/director Elske Mccain Actress/director Elske McCain (Jessicka Rabid) is working on a horror film that has the ouija board as a central theme.  I'm excited to see the results of her film when it gets into production phase.  At the moment, she is working on the script in between her other projects. Elske with a ouija board in a haunted hotel Above is a promo shot she did while in a haunted hotel congress where they caught the Dillinger gang.  Oddly enough Elske reminds me of Majorie Cameron, the wife of occultist/JPL founder Jack Parsons who was an artist, actress, and continued Parson's work into the occult.  I believe art/music/dreams and magic at the essence are one and the same, and if so Elske is a powerful magician.  I'm excited to see her film when it gets off the ground. Her last film was the controversial film Jessicka Rabid which was an old school grind house film, so I'm definitely intere...
