The first thing people will notice about horror director Alan Rowe Kelly (Don't Look In The Basement, I'll Bury You Tomorrow) is that he is a gender bender, but Kelly has been bending more then genders his entire career as he has broken out the idea of conventionality. At the age of 39, with 40 just right around the corner, he had an epiphany. Bored with a career as a stylist, he made the sudden and dramatic move to horror. First testing the waters as an author, he switched over to the world of indie horror film directing where he won great acclaim for "I"ll Bury You Tomorrow". As he continued to direct films, he also started making a name for himself in the indie horror world as an actor playing power players, agents, something that rhymes with witch, etc. These were powerful, empowered characters that personally reflected upon Alan Rowe Kelly himself.

Director Jeremiah KippThe Sadist was previously known as Swine and the film stars make-up phenom Tom Savini (The Dead Matter). The script has been penned by Fangoria writer Jeremiah Kipp and The Sadist will be Kipp's debut in the director's chair. The first trailer for this feature shows a crazed Savini taunting and tormenting hunters in the bush. Maniacal eyes aside, this independent project has potential despite the challenges of a small budget. No word on the release, but low budget horror fans can look at the clip inside.
The synopsis for The Sadist here:
"The Sadist stars Savini as a combat veteran with serious psychological damage who stalks campers and hunters in the woods" (Fangoria).
Director: Jeremiah Kipp.
Writers: Frank Wihbey, Joe Pisani and Pedro Ondrush.
Cast: Tom Savini, Mackenzie Christine Hawkins, Miguel Lopez, Jerry Murdock, Santo Fazio, Zoe Daelman Chlanda, Carl Burrows and Tom Reid.

I watched this very cool and creepy short film the other day called Contact from writer/director Jeremiah Kipp. Contact stars Zoe Daelman Chlanda, Robb Leigh Davis, Katherine O'Sullivan, Tom Reid, Danny Lopes and Alan Rowe Kelly and includes a very talented production team.
Contact is a 10 minute black and white short felt more like a full-length feature. It starts out in what is an uneasy and uncomfortable setting then moves to the main story which to me focuses on drug use and finally ends back where it all begins but with forgiveness and redemption. It feels like a Twilight Zone episode on drugs!
I personally think everyone should check this short film out, for one reason or another it kind of has a message for a lot of us!

Actor/producer Marv Blauvelt sent over some on-set photos (see ’em below) from “Come on Down,” the wraparound story for the currently lensing independent horror anthology Psycho Street. He also gave us the first look at a trailer for the movie’s over-the-top comedic segment “Hypochondriac,” which you can see at the bottom of the page.
Busy scream starlets Tiffany Shepis and Raine Brown star in “Come on Down” alongside Austin Dossey, Kirk Chastain and Jason Hignite for director Arthur Cullipher. The setting is the town of Kronanburg, and Blauvelt provides a synopsis: “When newcomer to town Aubrie Harris [Brown] sends her husband Casey [Dossey] next door to borrow tools and he doesn’t return, she becomes concerned and decides to visit her new neighbor in hopes of finding Casey’s whereabouts. Making a visit to her neighbor Leya Barker [Shepis], she discovers through her ‘friendly’ visit that Kronanburg may not be the...

Fango got word of a new horror anthology project combining the talents of a number of independent East Coast horror filmmakers and actors. Titled Psycho Street, it’s a collaboration between Dark Ryder Filmworks and Rainey Daze Productions, along with a trio of other indie production companies.
Rainey Daze’s Raine Brown (first photo) will appear in all four segments, with the scripts written by Marv Blauvelt (second photo) and Trevor Wright of the upcoming Sculpture. That movie’s director, Pete Jacelone, takes the helm of the “Hypochondriac” story, co-produced by his THR Productions, about a small-town doctor and nurse (Blauvelt and Brown) who encounter a woman (The Blood Shed’s Alan Rowe Kelly) obsessed with surgery—performed on herself. Susan Adrienson, Zoe Daelman Chlanda, Jeremy Mulkey, David Gilke, Carl Burrows and Edward X. Young also star. Kelly himself directs “No Rest for the Wicked,” about a young, frustrated single...

If you were lucky enough to attend Fango’s recently wrapped Weekend of Horrors, you hopefully were also fortunate enough to check out the phenomenal short Insatiable, which screened on Sunday. As much about vampirism and fetishism as it is about a dwindling marriage, the flick is a rare silent pleasure, harking back to the days when creating films was more about experimentation than making money.
“Insatiable really started out of my frustration from trying to sell a feature script of mine in 2004,” writer/director Scott W. Perry reveals. “I kept on inquiring to many production companies looking for scripts, but the answers were all the same: no vampires, because they’ve been done to death. I had just left a job at A&E, where one of my duties was to watch their prime-time programming before it went to air for quality control. Now, it was reality shit, but...
