    Shot in 10 days on Betacam, but it's pretty decent!

    As the overworked director of this film, I have been pulling my copy of this picture out and showing it to people to show them what can be done on a microbudget. It's too bad we didn't shoot on 16mm, because a lot of us think it would have done more than languish on the straight-to-video shelves. But that's what happens when the Studio has a project they don't believe in and don't support. A lesson for filmmakers everywhere!

    The cast and crew were great, and the story is excellent. It was a great opportunity to try and make something with a thriller angle without a lot of money.

    This new film "Secret Window" is eerily similar in plot. If you have a chance to see it, I hope you like it. - Chris LaMont
