Well, I guess Revolution liked it. They’ve hired a director. Patrick Lussier. He directed “Dracula 2000” for Dimension and has just wrapped two sequels that will go Direct to Video with Jason Scott Lee staring. Patrick and his producing partner, Lou Artkoff (I may have that last name wrong) were pulled in on Rev’s “Darkness Falls” to do rewrites and reshoots. They, of course, got no recognition so Revolution is giving them Scarecrow.
Patrick has clearly done some work because he had pages and pages of notes. Not bad notes but they seem to want to take a thriller and turn it more into a horror. Not a problem. I obviously liked what I’d come up with. I liked presenting the audience with a horror movie only to reveal at the end that it was all in the lead’s head. It turns out the movie wasn’t a horror at all but a thriller about a man going insane.
Feels like it’s going to be something a bit different now. Not that I didn’t like the notes. I thought they were fine…just different. Not better, not worse. Would be nice to one day make the movie I want to make.
