Big news! Risen took home a Silver Remi from the 41st annual WorldFest 2008 in the SciFi/Horror/Fantasy category. Out of literally thousands of entries, RISEN took home the silver! A little information about WorldFest. It's the third oldest film festival in the united states and winners are selected by a jury of known filmmakers. |

RISEN took the Chicago Horror Film Festival by storm taking both BEST FEATURE and BEST MAKE-UP EFFECTS! These two awards validate the hard work of the hundreds of people involved in making RISEN a total success! It was stunning to see RISEN on the big screen as the audience gasped, laughed, and cried. It was amazing! The reactions from the audience were universally positive with a very active Q&A afterwards full of great questions from the audience. I want to thank Jason R. Davis with Gatlin Pictures for putting on a great festival and thank all of the folks who attended! |

Risen screening scheduled for 4:40PM on Saturday, October 6th at The Portage Theatre ( 4050 N. Milwaukee Ave. Chicago, IL ) for the Chicago Horror Film Festival.
3 Day Passes are available for $30, 1 day passes are available for $12. Reserve your ticket today! (Click on the '07 Tickets link) An opportunity to not only see RISEN but 7 other features and dozens of shorts.
Out of hundreds of submissions, RISEN was one of the few selected to be screened at the Chicago Horror Festival, October 5-7. Precise date/time RISEN will be shown during this festival coming soon.
A completed screener and press kit is now available for interested distributors and film festival submission.
We're presently working on scheduling a screening in Bellmead with additional screenings to be determined.
I got the chance to watch Risen in it's entirety with everything layed in (including full audio!) last night. Total zen. It's turned out far above my wildest expectations. I want to thank everyone again for all thier work on Risen, especially Damon, David Feagan, Thomas Liberty, and Alan Shipp who have been locked in dungeons for months thanklessly working on the postproduction finishing this movie.
As Feagan was struggling with the rather massive audio requirements of Risen, he did a bit of analysis trying to figure out why it was taking so long. Apparently, among all of the zombie movies he researched (all of the zombie classics), we have the most minutes of screen time directly involving zombie action. The bad news for him was that meant that he had a very difficult job of creating a rather intense and complex foly job. The good news is for you my dear friends. Risen turned out precisely as I'd hoped-An action packed zombie movie with heart.
Freddie Agular is working on getting the DVD Menus put together, then we'll get a small run of DVDs created with Brian Level's artwork on them to send out for screeners to the distributors that have requested them.
The million dollar question-When will I get to see RISEN? Answer: I don't know. If we're able to work a deal fairly soon with one of the distributors that has requested a screener then the answer is it might be at a video store near you soon. Otherwise, we'll be doing months, maybe a year or more of marketing and film festivals around the world before Risen will be available in your area. I promise, however, that we will have a Waco area premimere, most likely at the Bellmead Civic center where 1/3 of the movie was shot. They've done some impressive rennovations over there since we managed to destroy it in the filming of Risen (Thanks again to the people of Bellmead, you are my HEROS!).
