My new short FILM THAT NEVER BEGINS has its world premiere in Hoboken tomorrow, and screens in Denver next weekend. More to come, hopefully!

Hopefully, I’ll have some news about 5002 Space Aliens by the end of the year…😁🤞

If your Frankenstein movie ISN'T based on the 1973 #1 hit by the Edgar Winter Group, what are you even doing?

Urgh: my new feature film is 0-12 at getting into film festivals so far.

I’ve had a few programmers tell me they love it but it doesn’t fit into the “themes” they’re doing at their festivals.

US film festivals all brag about “celebrating the storyteller,” but I don’t tell stories, so…🤷 #filmsky

Feeling very stuck on what to do next. I’m not really getting any good ideas for any projects that I feel excited about.

Part of the problem is that I don’t really have financial resources to make something right now.

Urgh.
