11/24/2011 - Hello there folks, how are you all doing? It's been a while, I know, but I'm back and I've got a few things to tell you about... A lot of you dedicated fiends out there have been asking me about a little project called “Long Pig” I was talking about 2 years ago...Well, after the grueling principle photography wrapped on that flick, I got a little burned out and went away for a bit, leaving Long Pig gasping for breath halfway out of the birth canal. A lot has happened in my life, both personal and creative, in the last couple years. Among them was having the opportunity to meet some very talented people -- talented people who were kind enough to lend their hand in turning Long Pig into the film I always wanted it to be. I am extremely pleased to announce that Long Pig will be entering this world kicking, screaming, and covered in blood very soon! This one is a huge step forward for Reel Splatter, it's a very different film than you've seen from us before. Don't worry, it's still funny (hopefully), and it's definitely gory as hell, but it's a different style of film, one that I feel better expresses my writing and directing style. I think that you'll enjoy it. Keeping in the spirit of the holidays (and what better time of year than Thanksgiving Day to unveil news on Long Pig!), I decided to give you a little present...
This little beauty was done by our very good buddy Jason Pohlig over at Slightly Strange Studios, who I have been doing a nice assortment of outlandishly violent FX scenes for, in a nasty little upcoming short called “Til Death”. You'll be hearing a lot about that film very soon, so stay tuned! "When three good friends decide to go get dinner, one wrong turn transforms the idyllic summer afternoon into a deadly struggle for survival..." LONG PIG You are who you eat... -Coming December 2011- And finally, I would like to announce another film that is being released very soon from Reel Splatter Productions in association with Slightly Strange Studios, “The Stall”. It's the story of one man facing the apocalypse...in a public restroom. I don't want to give too many details on this one yet, but I will say that if you're an H.P. Lovecraft fan, you will enjoy this one very much. The Stall is completely shot and we should start editing and scoring it in a few months. More details on that one will be coming soon. Until then, have a Happy Thanksgiving and make sure you "like” our facebook page for the most up to date information and pics!
P.S. - Our dear friend Baron von Brunk may be far away in seclusion, but he's still cranking out the awesome designs -- especially his recent LEGO Cthulu model!

12/14/2010 - Many moons have passed since our most recent update, and quite a lot has changed! For Halloween, Mr. Lombardo did his typical routine of creating helluva spectacular parties, and this year he truly outdid himself. The Massacre-ade Part II: Terror Born of the Atom was a shocking thrillride for the whole family. We had toxic waste, hazmat suits, a butcher shop, but above all, I dressed as Artie: The Strongest Man in the World (of "Pete & Pete" notoriety)! To see our photos, look for our Facebook page and be sure to like it. Also, I personally ditched the 9 to 5 world and became a full member of AFTRA, the union for television and radio actors. Fortunately Reel Splatter is an indie film troupe (and not a public access channel), or else I'd be legally forbidden to star in any more short movies! To kick off my plunge into the world of for real for-real acting, I compiled a demo reel of my greatest Reel Splatter moments showcased:

9/7/2010 - HUGE NEWS!!!
Our film "Demonstration of The Dead" won the Fan Favorite Award at The Horrorfind Film Festival on Saturday! We competed against 31 films (which are listed here, along with the other winners) and took home the golden buzzsaw blade trophy! It was an honor to be in the running against such awesome flicks and we would like to thank all of the other filmmakers and the entire staff of Horrorfind Weekend for making this such a fantastic event! We are forever indebted to all of you kickass fans who came out to watch the film and to those who got bloody, grabbed a picket sign, and helped us launch the biggest marketing campaign we have ever attempted! It was a blast and a huge hit at the convention, most of which was captured on tape by filmmaker Nancy Gaglio, who is filming a documentary about me and my work in the splatter comedy genre! More details on that to come!
