Greetings and Salutations,

Vanish is proud to announce that the Villisca Ax Murder House crew may be under the European influence and getting a bad ass linebacker.

The Dane (formerly known as “Mika”) is pulling some strings to saddle up in Denmark and ride to one of the most haunted places in America. He’ll be bringing his 10 gallon, so ya better show some respect! And ladies, this is not a Dane, this is THE Dane. Check out his myspace profile (1st friend on our list). Word around the campfire is that he’s a master of bed artistry. Delicious.

And Trevor, the baddest linebacker this side of the Mississippi, is coming along to witness these ghosts with his own Mike Singletary eyes. If any of them look at us cockeyed, we’re calling a 42 inside blitz. Straight-up suckas beware!

Mind your pints and quarts,

BVH

Greetings

The shoot for “Sweet Damnation” is one step closer to the end. The boys (and girl) gathered last weekend and hammered out some more scenes, which resulted in outtakes from a bottle of sweat, naughty hand signs and an uncontrollable controller. It will be the feel good movie of the year!

We also shot our first video blog where we introduced most of the cast and stumble through our first Q & A. Stay tuned. We’ll let you know when it’s posted.

Now we await the arrival of the notorious “Lisa,” who is played by Megan. One more weekend of shooting remains (early April), and then we shall all be damned.

Free OJ!

Greetings and Salutations,

We are in the midst of shooting “Sweet Damnation.” Nearly 20 pages done, 12 more to go (new pics posted!). Things are looking bright as we hit the home stretch. One thing we are sure of, there will be outtakes. It became such a concern that a mouse trap was utilized to prevent laughter during a scene. Didn’t work. Not enough pain…

The participants have risen to the occasion, and soon a female will enter the picture. Megan stopped by to see what she was in for, as her character has been the focus of the boys conversations. Hope she doesn’t come to her senses…
Soon the film will be in the can, and we will all be damned.

Mind your pints and quarts,

Here’s some projects coming up for Vanish Productions:

SWEET DAMNATION – The script is in its final draft, the roles have been cast and we are set to shoot in February. Its a comedy about the idiocy of men. Shocker!

VILLISCA AX MURDER HOUSE DOCUMENTARY – In a few months, the Vanish Productions crew will travel to Villisca, Iowa to stay overnight in one of the most haunted sites in America. Check out the website:

www.villiscaiowa.com

The cameras will be rolling… We’re positive that this documentary will be rated R for language.

TWO TEARS IN A BUCKET -A film about a good ol’ boy down on his luck. Filming schedule is yet to be determined.

As we were finishing the final draft of “The Legends,” we decided to have a little fun with Dave (saddle carrier at beginning of the film) since he already committed to doing the movie. Just for reference, Dave is happily married to his wife Shirley (caterer for the shoot).

We injected a small piece into the end of the script, right after the two cowboys get in the truck. When the “script” was ready, Mike (director) and Trista (producer, Dave’s daughter, Mike’s wife) read the script from the beginning for Dave. After the cowboys get in the truck, this is how it unfolds:

Rex spots a white band around Lane’s wrist. He turns the music down.

REX
Why in thee hell are you still wearin’ that?

Lane reads “St. Anthony’s Psychiatric Institution” on the band.Lane rips it off.

LANE
Sorry pardna.

Rex shakes his head.Lane puts his hand on Rex’s thigh.

LANE
I’ll make it up to ya, ’cause you’re my sugarplum.

Rex sets his hand on Lane’s and meets his gaze.

REX
And you’re my knight in leather armor.

They engage in a long, passionate kiss. They separate and adjust their cowboy hats.

LANE
Watch the 10 gallon.

Rex chuckles.

REX
Let’s git the hell outta here.

Apparently, Mike and Trista stayed in character, but Dave freaked out.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! No, no, no, no…what the hell does that say?!”

“It’s part of the story,” said Mike.

“No $%@ way!”

We eventually got the real script to Dave, without the torrid love affair. But he did have a hard time letting go of the “sugarplum” line…
