FOUR short film scripts completed since late August. Connected with a cinematographer yesterday. Started development on a mini web-series for my YouTube channel. And a friend of my brother's read 2 of the 4 scripts (just for notes) and volunteered to act in both.

Hollywood should know that the best thing about the features i write is that they would be pretty cheap to shoot without having to sacrifice anything in the story. so, if you have about $1.5-3 million you want to burn 😬🤷🏿‍♂️

"Sinners isn't a horror movie...it's about the Black experience"--
yeah, which - speaking from experience - is pretty damn horrifying, my guy. 🤦🏿‍♂️

“It’S nOt a HoRrOr MoViE”

The way people bend over backwards to justify liking a movie in the horror genre is sad. Horror is not a dirty word. Dismissing an entire genre isn’t taste, it’s ignorance.

Doesn’t matter how many great horror movies get made, doesn’t matter how many times they’ve saved the theatrical movie business since Covid…the genre still can’t get any respect. The “it’s not a horror movie” crowd is always there. This includes filmmakers who can’t admit they made a horror movie.
The reason Sinners is so good is that it’s not a horror movie. It is a film about the Black experience, and the immigrant experience in America. It tells the story of marginalized peoples and uses vampires as allegory to tell that story. It is SO much more than a “vampire movie.”

wrote 2 short films based on 2 new comics i drew, finished a new pilot based on a recent experience, and about 45 pages deep in a new horror idea - all were started this month! no idea where the spark is coming from but I'm damn sure not complaining!

LAST LAUGH is my sci-fi feature that basically started with the question "What if Ready Player One was a horror movie?"

This one will make your blood boil.
