Thought you all might enjoy seeing the poster art so far. It's not quite finished but here's the gist of it. Let me know what you think please...leave a comment.
C-
I want to thank everyone for their time and effort in making this film. Every one of you was critical to the success of this script and I couldn't be more pleased with the performances. I don't think I will ever film in the snow again....unless I am paid a whole lot.
And have my own trailer.
I thought I would dish out a couple awards.
The 'Creepiest' Award goes to Lawrence as Dt. Mills. All those pedophile comments.........
The 'Most Painful to Play' Award goes to Jesse as CJ. The nice welt you have on your arm today pretty much put this award in the bag.
The 'Funniest Moment' Award goes to Marquell for his interrogation scene. 'Mt. Dew is a girl's drink.'
The 'Please Don't Hit ME' award goes to Eric for his interrogation scene. Couldn't have looked more awkward there.
The 'BEST REALISTIC ACTING' AWARD goes to Dave as Chance....he ACTUALLY HURLED for the film. For like two minutes of real hurling. He made himself do it.
The 'SADDEST MOMENT' AWARD goes to Steve as Shane....your dead face makes me want to cry. Please don't die.
The BEST jpg PICTURE AWARD goes to Adetiba for his Artic Fox Hat pic.
The AWARD for the most 'That's what she said' comments goes to John the sound tech. You really need to stop that. (That's what she said.)
The I AM FRICKIN COLD AWARD goes to Keivan. I think your skin was actually turning blue there for a while.
Peter Cody gets the AWARD for 'The Director doesn't remember my name without saying Peter FIRST' AWARD.
The 'I CAN'T FIND A CORD THAT WORKS' Award goes to STOLL the sound tech.
The Funniest comments award goes to Joe. Lets face it. He has the funniest comments. And his nipples are pierced so that pushed him over the top.
The 'I HAVE WEIRD PEOPLE SHOWING UP IN MY WOODS ALL DAY' Award goes to Andrew. Buy a shotgun. Use a shotgun.
The 'BIGGEST PAIN IN MY @$$' Award goes to THE COP. If you were there, then you know who I am talking about. If he got hit by a bus I wouldn't mind so much...
The 'SMILEY' Award goes to Kim who I barely ever saw her not smile. It's kinda contagious.
The 'COULDN'T HAVE MADE IT WITHOUT THEM' AWARD goes to my Aunt Debbie and Uncle Craig. The pretty much sheltered me for a month. I don't think they thought I was ever going to leave......
The 'BEST OVERALL TROOPER' Award goes to my now nine month pregnant wife who has been stuck with my son without me for three+ weeks.
Thank you all again. I will be in touch.
'I have an announcement. This is the end. I'm going now. Goodbye.' - Bilbo Baggins.

Hey people,
Just a note. The current schedule up through the 12th remains in tact. We have already had a few delays - we will probably have more. If that is the case, then I will work with whoever is needed, around their schedules, to get the remaining shots. I try to get what we need but sometimes I cannot predict weather or people surviving in the cold for 5 hours at a time...
Here are a few more pics.
Enjoy.
Ok guys, longest day of the shoot - I'm sorry, but at least there's only one really bad day like this. But it's an awesome film so....
