My First Grindhouse Trailer

This video was the first trailer that I ever edited and shot. I used unused footage from a documentary that I shot called Fourth of July BBQ and I decided to put this trailer together. You'll notice a Rubik's Cube in the poster as well as in the beginning and in the lower right corner; before I came up with the studio name John's Paradise Productions there was Smoking Rubik's Productions. Well, copyright interfered with that.

You'll also notice that the video footage that I used from Creepshow, An American Werewolf in London and The Blob are all really crappy quality. This is because I made this before I got any proper editing and DVD burning equipment so I had to video tap all the footage directly off of the computer. So I placed a camera on a tripod in front of the computer screen and recorded everything that way.

I hope you enjoy.

The "Common Life"

Just a simple thought, I just got done watching “Hellraiser 3” and out of all the demons and monsters that have been portrayed on film…. The Cenobites are my favorite. They look like mutations and they dress in sadomasochistic clothing and they look disgusting. What else is there to say? Although since the first “Hellraiser” they have lost their charm, my favorite Cenobite has to be the adorable Butterball.

He is so pudgy, he wears shades, he waddles and he is just an overall butterball. I mean, honestly, can you say no to that face:
