Friday night nepotism
Those who've read over the past couple days probably believe I'm fiercely political.
I'm also fiercely proud of my brother, an independent filmmaker who's nearly done with editing his second film, "Cocked: A First Shot at Crime." A preview is up right now.
Shot against the lush backdrop of Oak Lawn, and produced by Brandt Street Studio (also located in glamourous Oak Lawn), "Cocked" is a must-see ... when it officially releases.
My brother also wrote, directed, shot and edited "Born for Death" (again, filmed in Oak Lawn), which won an award and accolades at the Chicago Horror Film Festival. You can buy the DVD here.
No Hollywood egos, trite endings or focus-group controlled cinema here, folks. Just a true love of good film ... and lots of fake blood.
And hey, you can say you were among his first fans, and I know how people love that kind of stuff.

Hey Imp, it's bret. I checked out some of this new fang-dangled blog stuff all the kids are talking about. Reads like you have a good handle on the idea....like you've had a little training in writing, maybe even practiced on youre own time :)
Your brother's new movie looks good, I like the teaser & especially love the use of Zappa music within....Peaches En Regailia, great choice!
