Like I said after the first two posts. I KEEP FORGETTING WHAT CRABBY, NASTY PEOPLE YOU ARE. I'm pretty sure I'll remember now. I don't want your interest or your help. Because as this post shows (and Real horror fans) many of you are USELESS and childish.

LOL :D :D :D :D

Your mother must be very proud.

Speaks volumes about his movie(s), I would think.

I'm particularly proud that i saw him online at least once after my posts, but he didn't post anything. Perhaps he agreed with my message about not acknowledging the "immature" replies with immature replies...

okay, Vanlutz... where is the film? You have suffered our abuse and keep coming back for more which I appreciate.

I tend to discourage people as much as possible becasue those who are easily discouraged by a few words have no place in this business. It is a hard business and rejection is the norm, not the exception.

I usually don't download, but I'll take a look. And I promise I will review you honestly - it really isn't in me to do anything to the contrary.

"Its kind of immature."

I never said I was mature. But, if someone says something to you, nice or nasty, you should respond appropriately.

"Phalanx isn't rude, he is direct and honest. He become rude when pushed (much to our collective amusement)"

His first answer: No it's not spam. It's an unsolicited attempt at market research, conducted on a platform that would be free of charge to yourself, that will no doubt LEAD to spam once you think you have your target market interested.

Sorry man, that's RUDE. Even if it wasn't directed at me, it's not very funny or amusing.

"Roderick is a professional screenwriter with some very impressive recent accomplishments, so you should hang on his every work regarding movies. but he hurt your feelings, so you no longer have any use for him do you?"

What am I chop liver? He didn't hurt my feelings. It's almost impossible to hurt my feelings. I'll answer rudeness with rudeness, I go back to my original response of "I forgot... about horror.com"

"Your mother must be very proud."

As proud as your moms.

"I'm particularly proud that i saw him online at least once after my posts, but he didn't post anything. Perhaps he agreed with my message about not acknowledging the "immature" replies with immature replies..."

Sorry man, I was out all night in Atlantic City (whew hew I broke even. It's like a ghost town down there). BTW: I don't agree.

"okay, Vanlutz... where is the film? You have suffered our abuse and keep coming back for more which I appreciate."

It's not available. This post had nothing to do with my movie. It has to do with an OPTION. I'm not giving my movie away to a distributor for free. YOU could have won a copy by entering the contest. But, you didn't. Sorry. Since I had so few entrants I gave everyone a personally autographed copy. It'll be worth at least a buck on e-bay.

"Speaks volumes about his movie(s), I would think." "It is a hard business and rejection is the norm, not the exception."

I've played music and worked in live theatre for ten years. You live with it. But, my movie is the exception. No, it's not God's gift to cinema, but it's a damn good micro-budget movie.

I purposely set myself up to be criticized, by putting one of those "This movie is so disturbing" loglines on the poster. How much do you hate those? Reviewers do. They chomp at the bit aching to write that mean spirited review telling the arrogant dirt-bag film maker how lame and un-disturbing his picture was. Well everyone including the few people that didn't enjoy it agree, it really is as disturbing as the poster says. Everyone also agrees the lead actor is brilliant, picture-perfect, great, fantastic, and magnificent. Every review is pretty much a carbon copy of the prior. Though there are only eight on-line reviews, there are numerous other e-mails, from friends, strangers I sent the movie to.

One person who disliked the movie wrote an e-mail with this: It's memorable for sure - first-time filmmakers are frequently advised to be controversial, and the amount of thoroughly unpleasant acts herein lingers in the mind. They're not "enjoyable-gross" like slasher murders, but truly unpleasant things.

I would think that speaks volumes about my ONE movie.

why dont you just ignore the negative comments and move forward with the positive ones ?

this back and forth shit is embarrasing - like watching a husband and wife fight in public.

Kind of what I was getting at. Nice analogy, by the way.
