REMAKES: THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UNGODLY AWFUL (Part 1)

Alright lets face it, remakes aren't going away anytime soon. 

They just make too much money to warrant them not being an easy cash in for studios. Original ideas always run that risk of not making those glorious dolla' dolla' bills for the studio execs, and the easiest way in the film industry to make a quick buck is to rehash an old idea, slather some new glossy effects all over it and beat that dead horse until it stops producing green.

Help A Brotha Out

Buz 'Danger' Wallick

The horror community is said to have the kindest most dedicated fan base in any genre of film, hell we have horror conventions where we all get together and discuss horror films. Ever heard of a romantic comedy con? No? Yeah, neither have I. But now its time to band together and contribute as one to get a very interesting original film off the ground.
Buz 'Danger' Wallick is producing a new original film but needs our help.
Buz is a name you have probably heard of. He was cinematographer on a short film called Thirsty which blew up on the internet and he was also cinematographer on the most acclaimed horror documentary ever made Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy. You may also know him on Dreadcentrals Dinner For Fiends podcast and also his own podcast Same Shit Different Show 
He has also done the upcoming Friday The 13th documentary Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History of Friday The 13th as well as the previous Friday The 13th documentary His Name Was Jason.
His newest project is something called Truth or Dare. An original film where he has taken the role of producer. You can help this film by contributing to it but the neat thing is the more you contribute the more stuff you get. Like if you donate $25 you will receive a signed and personalized 8.5 x 11 inch photograph of director Jessica Cameron. You can choose between sexy or conservative photographs of her. The more you donate the more things the makers through at you.
