I'll be at Fango this Saturday and Sunday so maybe you'll see me do something stupid. 
 

5/18/09 – The Tenement (lead role of Jimmy Wayne Garrick) is in the 30th anniversary June issue of Fangoria Magazine.

The movie is part of a list called "Fangoria On Screen" since the magazine made a cameo in the movie.

The man ripping the magazine is Michael Gingold, the REAL LIFE Managing Editor of Fangoria. His character states, "Who do you gotta blow to get into this rag?"

"All in all, "Insatiable" is a solid and entertaining short."

"... I really enjoyed the subtlety of it. This is one that gets better and better with repeated viewings.”

"'Insatiable' is currently making the festival rounds, so if it's playing at a horror fest near you, you might want to get a ticket … or two so you can watch it again!"

 
4/10/09 – Insatiable director Scott W. Perry has some kind words about me in his interview with Staugnews:

Casting the film was fun. I met Mike Lane and Zoe Daelman Chlanda on the set of Alan Rowe Kelly’s film “The Blood Shed” and was impressed by their performances. When it came time to get “Insatiable” together, they agreed to do the roles. I met Raine Brown while asking for an interview for my Colonel’s Crypt website and she loved the script. For acting without using any dialogue, they had to rely on their emotions and I felt all three did a phenomenal job.

4/9/09 – Alan Rowe Kelly, director of The Blood Shed (supporting role of Hubcap Bullion) and Down the Drain (supporting role of Principal Royce), in an interview with Horror Society says:

"I realized that everything occurring on set of THE BLOOD SHED was a reaffirmation that I made the right decision to become a filmmaker. Never was there a film set so fun, so free of ego and temperament, and yet so very serious and creative a collaborative. THE BLOOD SHED was never ‘MY’ film. It became everyone’s film involved – from the wonderfully talented actors, music composer, editor, and producers, make up artists, art director and cinematographer. We kept saying amongst ourselves - “this shouldn’t be this fun…something is wrong!” LOL! It was one the best film experiences ever and that will last me all my days." 

Plus, to top it off, we have the greatest range of horror indie notables starring in GALLERY OF FEAR like Terry M. West, Jerry Murdock, Zoë Daelman Chlanda, Katherine O’Sullivan, Raine Brown, Robert Norman, Benzy, Debbie DeVerde, Susan Adriensen, Joshua Nelson, Terry Shane, Don Money, Sandra Schaller, Mike Lane, and, hell yeah, I’m in it too!” 

4/3/09 – Horror Society covers the wrapping of the Gallery of Fear anthology (supporting role of Principal Royce in “Down the Drain”).

4/1/09 – For an incredibly great and extremely intellectual review of the The Blood Shed (supporting role of Hubcap Bullion), check out:

Quotes are below:

"This subtlety, completely uncommon in the realms of the horror genre, is exactly what makes this movie more important than what you would imagine just by seeing the cover of the DVD."

"I know for a fact that the next time someone asks me if I have watched anything good, I will say 'I haven’t seen anything good, but I saw something great: The Blood Shed by Alan Rowe Kelly.'”

3/22/09 – Wrapped the Insatiable DVD commentary (lead role of Derek) with Raine Brown, Zoe Daelman Chlanda and Scott W. Perry

Stay tuned for screening and festival news.
 

3/9/09 – The Video Graveyard gives Insatiable (lead role of Derek) a good review.  Read it at http://www.thevideograveyard.com/i/insatiable.html.

“[the] cast does relatively well with the material. Lane and Chlanda both appeared together earlier in the highly entertaining redneck horror flick, The Blood Shed and Raine Brown (who’s been busy in tons of b-movies including the upcoming remake of Don’t Look in the Basement!) brings a "can’t put my finger on it attraction to her character in her brief screen time."

The link to the whole review is below. Here are some quotes:

"Insatiable, takes the serial killer and the vampire, mixes them up a bit and turns out a movie that's just amazing."

“. . . the acting is great, the story is very good and, overall, Insatiable will leave you wanting more!"
