The Black Lodge poster image
Here's an early poster idea for The Black Lodge. Thanks to photographer Jack Zeman for setting up the photo shoot and for doing such a great job. Thanks also to Robert Choate for doing special effects makeup.

Welcome to the Blog!
This is our new temporary home. Software (and time) issues have kept me from updating the Bare Ruined Films site for a few months now, so I've shifted to Blogger.com and have put BareRuinedFilms.com on temporary hiatus. We actually have a really cool new site designed by Eric Palmerlee of NYC's Lost Property Information, but have some content hurdles we're still dealing with. Hopefully we'll get the new site online in the first quarter of 2005. It's probably a good idea to strip the site down to its essentials, anyway, as I wonder how much information on the old site was barely ever viewed by anybody.
First, old business. Last September (17-19) I had a blast going to Lexington, Virigina to the Worldfest Lexington Film Festival. They only invited about 15 films, so it was a great honor to be flown out there and to be able to show Indefinitely to the fine folks at Washington & Lee University. Thanks to Hunter Todd and his main supporter in this endeavor, John Dean. A good time was had by all.
Also, last November 11th I was asked to show both Indefinitely and Night Dawn Day for film students at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas. I've never shown both films (which are, thematically, two halves of the same whole) together, so it was a unique experience among film screenings. Actresses Alaina Kalanj and Lisa Carnahan were able to make the trip with me, so it was great having them on hand to answer questions afterward and just hang out.
Here's a blast from the past: our 1999 music video for the Vigilantes of Love's "Resplendent" (featuring Emmylou Harris) is now available on the 2 DVD / 1 CD set, Vigilantes of Love: Fade to Black. You can order it from Fundamental Records and learn more about it at BillandVOL.com. I haven't seen a copy yet, but I know one DVD is a complete live show and the other DVD has the music video and a ton of special features. They're only making 1000 of these puppies.
Now, the future: Our main objective for 2005 is to make The Black Lodge, a brutal low-budget horror movie. Much of the same crew I've worked with in the past is on board -- DP Bill Schwarz, editor Jack Waldrip, actress Alaina Kalanj and line producer Cathy King. The movie will be scored by Kevin Manthei of Invader Zim fame. We are moving forward with the project and hope to shoot it this summer in Texas. We're very excited.
