Speak of the Devil

This past weekend, my roommate Jeff and I had a few people over to make a movie. The thing is, we didn't have a script, a concept or any sort of notion of what we'd make. The experiment was to see if we could make a movie in a night, with no pre-conceived notions of what it would be.

Four people came over, making us six total. Jeff had the idea of using the 48-hour film festival style of being forced to use a specific line of dialogue and being assigned a genre and a character name. Everyone wrote their suggestions down for each of those requirements and put them into a hat. Selections were picked. They were:

Genre: Horror
Line of Dialogue: "Are you mad? You're going to kill us all!"
Character: Tar Johnson

We picked a prop too, but that was after we started planning the movie and it didn't end up making it in. Boo us.

So out of these ideas, we built a story of an old blues musician, wrongfully murdered, and spiraled into a big backstory that involves all of rock history and multiple MURDERS!

I could explain and explain, but the best thing to do would be to watch it for yourself!

Remember, this was conceived, shot and edited in about 12 hours. Total! So please keep that in mind when watching - this is not a hollywood produced film. But it's also more amazing than any of those!
