"The Key"

Two filmmaking friends of mine have teamed up for a film titled "The Key" and they sure put together a fine piece of indie work. The script was written by Steve "Papaw" Pyatte, while it was directed by Jim Dougherty. Papaw also does some more acting in the film, and I have to say that I really enjoyed it. A while back I was sent the linnk to the trailer for the film, and I'll be honest - I was NOT impressed by the trailer. It caused a minor rift between Papaw and I, he took my comments a little harsher than intended, but we eventually got it all straightened out. I'm glad to say that the final film is much better than the trailer had me thinking it was going to be. I suggest everyone take a look at it, and then you might want to visit the sites I link to following the video, to learn more about these two guys.



Frankenstein 1931 Films.
Indie Sunts.

There's nothing I care about coming out this weekend, so I doubt I'll be going to any screenings tonight - which is cool, because I've actually got two other indie DVDs at home that I need to burn copies of and watch. One is a documentary. I've previously written a review on the film "Luke's Father and the Sled" - which I really enjoyed - and the guys who made the film provided me with a make-of documentary, which also shows them at the Lake County Film Festival. While at this film festival, they were introduced to a film called "Grodmin" and I've borrowed the DVD of it - because it's suppose to have the most twisted ending to any indie film ever made. And that's not just coming from my friends - that's coming from the internet. I've actually spoken to the director via emails, and he's going to send me the final version of the DVD when it is finished. For now, I have a copy (which I'm going to copy) of the festival version of the film. It turns out that they've come into some more money, and are remastering the film, for a final DVD release. I'm really in the mood to watch some indie film (although, I'm more in the mood to kick out somemore episodes of "24" tonight) so, maybe at some point I can get those watched and talk about them...
