I don't think I need to put too fine a point on it but  - THE END IS NEAR!!!!!!!!!!

The end of the Kickstarter campaign, that is.

For those of you who have backed us thus far: THANK YOU BEYOND THANKS!

For those of you who have promoted us thus far: WE COULDN'T DO IT WITHOUT YOU!

For those of you who might still be on the fence: JOIN US OVER HERE!

The support from family, friends, and fans of indie and horror has been awe inspiring and as we get closer to the last hours we need to keep up the hard work - especially with this being a holiday weekend.

Here's the link to post: http://kck.st/qZtHxk

As I'm sure you've seen, Zeke, Myke and I are constantly updating as things happen, like yesterday's addition of Vernon Wells the notable character actor who has donated time and money to the cause!

Zeke will be at the New Beverly Theater tonight for the screening of "Forbidden Zone" plugging away and I'll be around the O.C. reminding you college kids that beer may be fun, but supporting independent horror films is way more fun!

We're also going to try and shoot some video today to get up before we hit the LAST 24 HOURS!

Keep pluggin' and thank you all so much!

Curtis

Thank you is not sufficient to express the amount of gratitude that we have right now! 

Yesterday's pledges were humbling and amazing!

We have 2 days left and we are 40% funded!

Also, we have our first takers for the "Date with Gordy", "Make-Up Tutorial with The Wolf" and Co-Executive Producers! A thousand thank yous to you! 

The countdown on Kickstarter clock has changed from days to hours and, as you will learn from just about any book on screenwriting, nothing motivates a character like a ticking clock!

None of this - and I TRULY mean NONE of this - would be possible without your help! It has been wonderful and inspiring and most of all EFFECTIVE!

For the next two days I humbly request you keep it up!

Please continue to post it and, if you have a spare dollar we'd appreciate the donation!

I'm going to try and get through all of the thank yous today - it is a wonderful challenge! 

Thank you again!
Curtis

ONLY 3 DAYS LEFT!!!!!

There's only 3 days left and we are 20% funded!

Here's the Kickstarter link: http://kck.st/qZtHxk

Please keep spreading it! It's working!

Yesterday was a GREAT rally! I kept getting messages every few minutes about new backers and it was awesome! Zeke and I were actually in a meeting yesterday and my Blackberry kept blinking. It was a good reason to have to constantly check my phone!

The image above is a new poster that will be at The New Beverly Theater this Saturday night for the midnight screening of Forbidden Zone that Zeke will be attending. It's a fun movie that features the first appearance of Oingo Boingo when they were still The Mystical Knights of the Oingo Boingo. That's some trivia for ya'.

Zeke will be there pushing the campaign with post cards and pleas. Go have some fun!

Gotta' run, but keep up the good work!

See you tomorrow!

Kickstarter Update - Only SIX DAYS LEFT!!!

We have only SIX DAYS LEFT and I'd be lying if I said we aren't feeling the pressure.

It's there and we're feeling it.

To everyone else: We REALLY need you right now!

We happily accept any monetary support you can provide and, if we can be so bold, please pop out this link to everyone you know!

New "3 Minutes with Curtis & Dean - Tea vs. Coffee" & Updates!

It's Wednesday and the new "3 Minutes with Curtis & Dean" is up!

We are shooting more episodes soon and want to know what YOU want discussed!  Hit us at the Wiggy Twitter, Curtis's Twitter, The Wiggy Webs Channel, The Facebook Fan pages for Curtis or Wiggy or right here in the comments of this blog!  We've already received some great ideas, but the more we have the more we can shoot.

New shows are in the development phase and will start shooting in July!  "3 Things with Rene" has been pushed back due to schedule conflicts, but it will be worth the wait.

More news as it comes!

Distribution!

We are pleased to announce that Cheerleaders Must Die! will be distributed by none other than National Lampoon! Famous for their comedies like Animal House and Vacation, National Lampoon has help to create the comedy landscape that paved the way for filmmakers like Judd Apatow.

We are so pleased to be a part of the National Lampoon family and look forward to this summer even more!

More news as it comes!

Update - Casting News!

Hey Everyone!

We are far enough along that we can announce some preliminary cast for the Cheerleader Slasher!

Currently we are in final negotiations with:

Danielle Harris from the Halloween movies as our lead.

Shirly Brener from Righteous Kill as our villian.

Lochlyn Munroe from Freddy vs. Jason as a character named Billy.

And last but not least Aviva from Super Bad as Traci, one of the cheerleaders.

It's shaping up to be a great team and we are really looking forward to production.

More soon!

Small Update

Pleased to say that pre-pre-production is going along swimmingly. Our name cast is just about all locked. I can now say that Danielle Harris is attached and it looks like Shirly Brener is locked too! We'll bee meeting with other cast hopefuls this week and next and all the uninteresting business stuff is getting done.

More later when it is definite!
