It was the scene where Famke Janssen meets the Ghost and the Fango audience  jumped. Eric and Michael had a blast and would like to thank their gracious host Fangoria editor Tony Timpone and all the fans who came by.

Hey all! We’re back! You can now view an approved promo reel for ERIC RED’S 100 FEET HERE! As for the film’s current status, Writer/Director ERIC RED had this to say:

Eric Red: We are in the last stages of post production and will have more news soon..

Expect more Blog updates to roll on in within the following weeks!

 
Michael Pare as Mike Watson

Michael Pare: I was at the AFM promoting another film and ran into Eric Red. We hugged and he said he was making another movie and before he could say anything else I asked if I could be in it. He said he actually wrote a character with me in mind. It was a ghost story with an offer out to Famke and he wanted me to play the ghost. Of course I said yes absolutely, Bad Moon was such a wonderful experience I couldn’t wait to read the script and get to work.

My character Mike Watson is married to Marnie (Janssen) right out of the police academy. Like 99% of the people that become cops I wanted to be like my heroes fighting for right, saving the under dog and locking up bad guys. Then life’s dark realities started to become more apparent and I became jaded. Marnie knew me better than anyone, and saw me turning and giving into first anger then depression then to temptation and finally self loathing. That is when the abuse started. When I looked at my wife I saw reflected in her eyes who I had become “A BAD GUY” I hated myself and was aware that Marnie knew what I become; a vile creature. She was still good and pure and I couldn’t stand her.

When I passed over thanks to that self righteous bitch I found myself in this cold empty void that made me feel like I was washing down an endless dirty toilet bowl full of the foulest waste from the lowest beast. The only thing that keeps me from drowning is my hate for Marnie and my hunger to exact some revenge by torturing that bitch. If she had only waited a little longer I could have taken an early retirement. But that barren waste land of a women just kept looking at me with those eyes that said you are not the man I fell in love with you are not a good guy, you’re just a piece of shit crooked cop that is worse then the lowest crack smoking rapist mugger piece of shit because at least they don’t deny who they are. Well fuck her let’s see how she likes it where I am.

That is kind of where my character comes from and that came out from time spent with Eric just talking about what his story needed. Working this way is really my favorite I hope it serves the story well and entertains the audience.

(Right) Writer/Director Eric Red (Left) Editor Anthony Redman.

ERIC RED: We are working in a facility in Hollywood, California and are about a month into the editing of the picture.  I’m enjoying working again with veteran editor Anthony Redman, who did a great job for me on “BODY PARTS.”  The picture is scary and frightening and really shaping up. 

At the moment the running time is about 105 tense minutes.  I’ve cut a few scenes from the script that were shot because the editing is the final rewriting.  The picture has a slow and deliberate build, then its balls to the wall. Our sound editor is Stephen Hunter Flick, who did the sound for the “THE HITCHER” and also did films like “DIE HARD,” “ROBOCOP” and “TOTAL RECALL.” Sound and frightening use of subliminal sound effects will play a big part in the fear factor of this film.The film will be completed in January 2008.  The foreign sales company is Voltage Pictures and territories all over Europe have already been sold. 

In terms of domestic distribution the film is presently in post and only once its completed will the “100 FEET” team begin exploring the varied domestic distribution deals that are on the table.  The exact release date in 2008 will be determined at that point.

I’m happy to report “100 FEET” has one of the scariest scenes in any of my films.  The audiences I’ve screened it for have talked at the screen and literally jumped out of their seats.  What is satisfying for me is that there is no blood in this sequence at all!  

In the coming weeks, look for more stills and some select scenes from the film to be released on The Arrow at Arrowinthead.com/JoBlo.com.
