Adam Beal’s short film THE LITTLE MISSUS played at the WILDsound FEEDBACK Film Festival in October 2015; part of the best of Horror/Thriller short films of the year event.

Watch the Audience FEEDBACK Video of THE LITTLE MISSUS:

I chatted with Adam Beal recently and talked about his very funny and very scary short film:

Matthew Toffolo: What motivated you to make this film?

Adam Beal: THE LITTLE MISSUS was made for a horror filmmaking contest; contestants were tasked to choose one word and make an under-3-minute short film based around. I went with Magnet,” and came up with a few variations on the concept that ends this short. The script I wrote for this version turned out the best, so that’s the one we went with.

From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this film?

It was late August when…

Watch the Best Scene Reading of COYOTE AND THE DUST DEVIL:

CAST LIST:

NARRATOR – Sean Ballantyne
JO – Aidan Black Allen
KRAMER- Steve Shand
CRANE – Brett Kelly

Get to know writer Jonah Jones:

1. What is your screenplay about?

How we connect with our inner selves and what happens when we fail to do so.

2. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie?

It’s an original idea with plenty of room for visual indulgence. The landscape in which it’s set is one of the most stunning in terms of starkness and contrast. The ways in which the Mescalero Apache express themselves are at once simple and stunning and so the contrast between their way of thinking and our technology-based violence provides a great background conflict.

3. This story has a lot going for it. How would you describe this story in two words?

God inside.

Get to know writer Andrew Akler:

1. What is your screenplay about?

Batman heads to Arkham Asylum when he hears that The Joker has escaped and staged a takeover. As he progresses through the asylum, Batman fights through a host of villains that challenge him in a different way. This forces Batman to examine parts of himself and eventually come to a shocking realization. My goal was to take the audience on an almost “standard” Batman crusade, while introducing the psychological elements until we land on that twist at the end. I wanted to give you…

DENVER – Brett Kelly
JEFF – Steve Shand

Get to know writer Lauren Hoekstra:

1. What is your screenplay about?

Yellow Touch Red, You’re Dead is the story of an impulsive high-school girl who gets accidentally caught up in a guns-for-drugs deal gone wrong. Trapped with the drug-runners fleeing the cartel, she plays a dangerous game of cat and mouse with the leader, who’s keeping her till she sleeps with him, no matter the cost.

2. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie?

Watch the Best Scene Reading of GONIES:

CAST LIST:

NARRATOR – Sean Ballantyne
PHILLIP – Steve Shand
FATHER MCCABE – Kunal Jaggi
DICKIE – Scott Beaudin
DEVEREAUX – Brett Kelly

Get to know writer Phil Stokes:

1. What is your screenplay about?

In GONIES, two boys – Phillip and Dickie – in a big city during WWII use cooked up strategies and the advice of the mysterious Walter finale to overcome obstacles, while matching wits with an old man who poses a danger they greatly underestimate. To give you an idea of the tone, here’s one of Phillip’s fears: “They are going to find me dead in the gutter with a load in my pants.”

2. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie?

GONIES is real and funny, there’s tension, and there’s nothing out there like it. It’s a family movie that will appeal to a broad audience…
