On the Set of Greed

Well yesterday I had the opportunity to star in a horror-drama film that was being directed by my friend Frank Holly (he is the person I hang out with and end up doing crazy stuff around the city with) Well, I was the main character and his film was entitled Greed. The story is about a young man who runs into a mysterious Nomad and he offers the young man a red bean. Well, the beans give him what he desires most but what he doesn’t understand is that if you abuse this power, there are dire consequences to from it. It’s based on the saying “Lust, greed and anger are the gates to Hell,” which for my character is absolutely true.

Below are the production photos. We were shooting up off the Linden stop on the Purple Line all the way in Wilmette. We were shooting up near the Bahai Temple.
