Memory, of the blockbuster that got away...


The year was 19sumfinnurotter, and cinematic history was not being made in north Texas. 3 college graduates had a dream, a Hollywood dream. They were originators, ahead of their time. Before youtube, before Blair Witch, before the indie horror explosion, there was...As Yet Named (And Or Name Forgotten) Self Made Horrorfilm!?!

Whatever happened to this long unheard of and uninterestworthy project? Many in the industry blame production infighting, many just ask what this blog is talking about, and ask it to let go of their arms, as they are not interested in "donating, or whatever?"

It is disagreed by even those involved as to where the spark of genius originated. Many believe it was all born from an idea belonging to Dagromm, which may be true, or perhaps thought up by Cyberd, a possibility, or perhaps, the most obvious possibility, that an idea this brilliant could only be the brainchild of the Pokiman(this is known of course to be completely false, the Pokiman is in no way the father of this pathetic attempt at local fame, and was only along because he was bored.), but somehow in this magical year, it was discovered that local cable providers in Texas were required by law to make available to the public all kinds of filming equipment, and free training on all of its use...cameras, mixing boards, big clunky tape machines. This lead to a series of the most amazing short films in the history of the far northern region of Texas. Much remembered scenes include Dag and Cyb hiding in bushes, Dag and Cyb following each other, Dag and Cyb being chased by a group of highschool cheerleaders involved in some kind of highschool cheerleader camp. And the possibility, with the proper use editing, of Dag and Cyb appearing to be preparing to kiss.

But the true lost object d' arte was the As Yet Named (And Or Name Forgotten) Self Made HoRrOrFiLm!?! Subjects that were to be touched on in this film included friendship, werewolves, the outdoors, werewolf victim mutilation, and the possibility, with the proper use of editing, of werewolf Dag and werewolf Cyb appearing to be preparing to werewolf kiss. All footage of this film is sadly lost to time, but those involved remember footage of Dag and Cyb fishing to be the only footage to ever have been filmed for this film in the first place...footage of them fishing, and with the proper use of editing...well.

I've thought of this many a time. Simply a casualty of the war that is our ADD brains.

lol, sounds like a lot of editing would have been called for.

Thanks for stating that those scenes were due to editing instead of saying they were due to Captain Morgan.

I believe the reason that we stopped filming was that you wouldn't commit to the hectic lifestyle that adult movi....er.. I mean artistic cinematography requires.

Any college memory that does not directly involve me is boring and not blog worthy.
