HAPPY 17TH ANNIVERSARY TO "INTO THE WOODS"!

Our 80's Horror Homage, INTO THE WOODS, which took us into a wooded sweat factory for 13 days in the summer of 2008 is turning 17 today!  In honor of that, here are a few behind-the-scenes photos from the shoot.

"Iver's Wilhelm Scream" [2025]

 My 5 Year Old, Iver, has been learning how to edit on a computer here and there.  He has also become a little obsessed with the Wilhelm Scream as of late.  The other day he asked me to be in a video that he wanted to feature said scream.  It soon became a production/post training exercise of sorts.  We tried to do it all in one single shot but we ended up having to make it two in the end.  I walked him through it but he pushed all the buttons.  Iver came up with basic concept, made the titles, added the sound effects (the screams and the fight sounds), and he just experimented and learned.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN 2024: "MONSTER SMUD 2" [Recovered Footage]

During the Goosebumps craze in the mid 1990's we had a fake spin-off fan series of our own in a similar vein called "EYEBALLS".  This past year, after returning from our Winter Holidays Illinois trip, I was transferring some old VHS tapes.  On one of them I came across some completely forgotten footage for an incomplete sequel to one of our "EYEBALLS" Episodes, a follow up to "MONSTER SMUD".  So I cut together a teaser trailer.  It features much younger versions of my brothers and I, and it would appear that the "SMUD" has survived and moved with us to a new house.  Check it out HERE!
