Bonanza!

Welcome, friends, to the Undead or Alive blog, an important documentary project that will chronicle the production and marketing of a film soon to be recognized as a landmark event in American cinema.

Oddlot Entertainment has offered to produce a screenplay I wrote based on a zombie Western concept proposed by Scott Pourroy. Moreover, Oddlot has offered to let me direct the movie, a decision we all hope they will not regret. This will be my first feature. We’re planning to shoot in spring 2006, about six months from now. Next week we’re going to New Mexico, where they have suitable landscapes and fantastic incentives, to scout locations. This is one of the sweet places we’re going: Bonanza Ranch
