I spent three months raising money and working on special effects in a garage and then directed this movie with my buddy John. We had around 32 people working on it with us, including actors and crew. We shot it on the Red One super-hi-def camera.
During filming three of my friends were hit by lightning, the guy holding the boom, the camera operator and our DP. Amazingly the camera was not fried and they all lived with minor burns. I thought one of them was going to die for sure and I was certain the entire cast and crew would leave the next day because the whole scene was so horrific. Even the lighting was surreal because he had used a giant light plant and other lights we rented to light up the whole forest with artifical moonlight. Picture that, plus girls screaming and crying while 20 of us run into a house and dump my twitching friend onto a sleeping actress.
Here they are getting out of the hospital:

Here is the teaser trailer
Doesn't show that much of the movie but we wanted to get one up soon.
the trailer look pretty good, dude! i'm impressed by the music track and some of the camera pans and whatnot. is there copious amounts of nudity and gore (say yes plz)

lostwords there are more to movies than nudity and gore.
That said, make with the tits and the awesome kills.

Partial nudity, definitely gore. Not too much though we weren't going for campy.
I'm glad you guys like it. Best part is we didn't even use our big money shots for this teaser.
Also I hate youtube, makes all those hi-rez images look like crap. You should see the actual file.
so whats the plan now? submitting to festivals, release on youtube, pressing dvds and seling online, etc etc? just curious, the process is fascinating to me.
When looking into the silent monologue of the director's eye, I found the dénouement to be lacking in structural intensity, but as a way to pass the time, there are worse ways to go.

Spend 3-5 months editing, doing sound effects and tailor-making all the music.
Then send it to film festivals all over and try to get in the big ones.
Then lure men in suits into the theater to hopefully buy it.
Man that spider looked so fake, I could so totally see the strings on it 8-)
Those are tentacles coming out of the Old Man's mouth.
Also the acting was far above average for an independent film. We got lucky with the cast. They had a couple of scenes that almost brought me to tears actually.

Yeah, acting is a big hurdle with films with this kind of budget. We worked with them pretty hard though and we got some decent to really good performances out of them. Especially for a bunch of first-timers.

Yeah, but you're a crybaby.
I bet you cried when you watched Rudy.
He cried when he saw Watchmen, I know that for a fact.
most important question: did you use your position as director of a movie to take advantage of aspiring, slutty actresses during tryouts?
No. Actually I got friendly with one, had to draw the line and then figured I'd be a gentlemen the whole shoot and hook up with her after. Then she hooked up with one of the actors and then one of the crew and well...she was like Heather Graham's character in Bowfinger.

You know, since I just finished casting a show, I don't understand when the actresses are supposed to line up for the prod staff. We were up 'till 2AM each of the three nights we were casting, well after all the auditionees had left, and they only saw us for like 5 minutes while they actually did their audition.
Like are they supposed to stalk the staff to find their numbers and set something up? And since the staff has just come from 2 hours of discussion and want to fucking sleep what kind of pickup line would even work?
I'm confused about the whole theoretical situation unless you're already banging the actress going into auditions.

well, look, it's a combination of things that work around those complications
actresses need to be super fucking dedicated to bang a guy for a part, there's scheduling issues and such
and conversely you as a director need to be prepared to go to great lengths to give the cock to your cast

I've got nothing but hi5s for that
What spring does with the cherry trees.

Other than that I actually lied the trailer, pretty well edited and looks cool.
But fuck that score.
Dude we rip apart shit that sucks. Not shit that obviously effort went into it.

Where's the part where the main character gets with his cousin?
also it had titties in it
exactly
the acting looks pretty bad
but this doesn't seem like a movie focussed on masterful acting, anyway (with all due respect)

Like a 6.5 to 7. Occasionally an 8.
