DVD's Finally Finished

For the past few months I have been recreating all my DVD's. The four films I have Written and Directed are now completed. These films can all be seen on my Myspace or Youtube however the quality is so much better on DVD especially for Watching the World Die which was shot in HD. (www.myspace.com/jeven_productions or www.youtube.com/jevendovey )

Each of these DVD's are packed with more than just the movie. I have created blooper reels slideshows and even some of my early highschool and elementary school films have made it on to a couple of these DVD's.

If you are interested in purchasing any one or all four please contact me at Jevendovey@yahoo.com. I am selling these DVD's for 6$ for one or all four for 20$. That covers all the cost to build out the DVD get the covers printed and have them shipped to you.

Thanks for all your support!

Master of Horror - Pelts Review

I don't know why they call this series the Master of Horror. There is nothing horrific about these films and the plots are so bad for the most part.

Pelts was one of the worse so far. How can you carry a film by raccoons who are not raccoons but smart animals who can make a person kill others and commit suicide if that person touches their pelt? Hmm Ancient temples being not explained, crazy ladys taking care of weird raccoons, person running through a building with his skin cut off after cutting it off himself...

Parts were gross. I'll give it that. There were some cool effects. I just dont get who would read this script and say "oh that sounds like it will be a really good film" Yeah there are some bloody scenes and stuff that hasnt been seen before but you can't carry a film on effects alone. There has got to be a story if your going to put this much effort into it and believe me its not easy making a film. There was a lot of thought going into making this but somehow people missed the lack of story...

"Cell" & "The Dark Tower" 2 possible new films?

Stephen Kings popular books, Cell and The Dark Tower series have been optioned for films.


Cell

It looks like Eli Roth will be directing King's new book Cell in 2009. Here is some information regarding the film.

Plot:When a strange signal pulsates through all cell phone networks worldwide, it starts a murderous epidemic of epic proportions when users become bloodthirsty creatures, and a group of people in New England are among the survivors to deal with the ensuing chaos after.

Directed by
Eli Roth

Writers
Screenplay
Scott Alexander
Larry Karaszewski Screenplay
Stephen King Novel

Producers
Chris Briggs ... producer
Brendan Deneen ... senior co-producer
Mike Fleiss ... producer
Eli Roth ... producer

Personally I am very excited to see this book made into a film. I really enjoyed the book and when I finished it I immediately started over from the beginning and re-read the entire book. It's a cool story and I think Eli Roth will do justice to the film.

Dark Tower

This series is by far my favorite of Kings work. There is so much to these books. I was surprised when I saw that J.J. Abrams optioned the rights to shoot the movie. I recently read an article in which King states that he will never give the rights for these novels. He believes a film will ruin the power these books have. When you make a movie from a book your limiting the imagination. Instead of using your own minds eye to discover a different world your stuck with one persons vision. Then if you read the books after you see the film that vision sticks and your not as free to enjoy the limitless possibilities your mind can create.

I think J.J. Abrams would make a very cool film however I am not sure if I want to see these books turned into a film or not. I think its one of those things you have to sit down and read. If you don't like to read I would suggest you change that because there is a huge world your missing out on. Films are fun and I love making films however books are something entirely different.

My personal favorite from this series is the second book. The Drawing of the Three. Read the first two books and you will be hooked!

"Teeth" Movie Review

This movie was a disappointment. I know what this was film was attempting to imitate however it seemed like a legit horror film at first turning into a campy horror film after a while. Cheesy lines, weird acting, and crazy scenes with dicks or fingers being bitten off. I was hoping that it would have taken this classic horror genre and ran with it. The Black Comedy Horror genre has been lacking in the past few years and new cult classics need to be created.

The plot was all over the place and changed multiple times. I'm not quite sure what the goal of this film was and I was constantly questioning what was real or fake towards the last half of the film. Cuts became jumpy and the story flashed all over the place. One moment shes a clueless girl and next she harnesses her power of biting guys dicks off and takes out her brother who apparently would rather fuck some girl in the ass than save his mom who is passed out in the living room. The writer needed to set up the brothers intentions way earlier in the film. It was a shock when he sicked the dog on his dad and told him that he loved his sister.

There were too many plot holes to get wrapped into this film the way I can get wrapped into Ghoulies, Gremlins, or Critters (some of the classic comedy horror films). So many of the scenes could have been redone or rearranged and this film would have been a gem. However as it stands I was not impressed.

Watch if you are interesed in the material and would like to see a bunch of dudes get their dicks bit off. However if you want a comedy horror film I would turn to some of the classics and hope that someone can achieve that quality in the near future.

Stephen King's "Duma Key"

I am about 200 pages in and absolutely blown away. This book is so good! It's not like some of his other novels where you know something creepy is going on. Rather it starts out as a story about a guy changing his life after a terrible accident. Slowly as he settles into his new home on Duma Key the reader settles into the mindset of the novel. And then together as a whole things start to change. People appear and phone calls are made. Nothing crazy has happened yet but there are things I'm defiantly questioning. I can see something is brewing....

If you are at all a Stephen King fan I would go to the store/library and get this book!!!
