Craig - I'd love to have a slice at Quatro's... I had my very first slice of Casrbondale Pizza at Quatro's Pizza in August of 1977, right after visiting the record store just around the corner, which name escapes me. I used to love those giant quarter slices of pizza from COVONE'S.. on up the street. Great cheese.

Man, I wish Columbus IN was closer so I could get to the B Movie Celebration. I hope it gets wider distribution. I'll have to do a piece for Static Multimedia, get some press around Chicago.

I hope I can treat you to a Quatro's pizza (still there a year or so ago and still terrific) and a pitcher. You don't know how much I wish we'd been introduced back in the 80's - it would have been cool to see you guys at work on those productions and maybe to pitch in somewhere. Can't wait to see this movie - even as a screener if you're looking for pre-release reviews...

We did the premiere in Tennesee because one of the cast members (David Browning) is from there. It was a benefit. Out in Soledad canyon we recreated the original Killer Shrews compound, with the squat ranch style building and wooden fence... and recreated the living room/bar set from the original film inside the building. Fans of the original movie will be impressed, I think. It was very much Deja Vu for James Best, care of our set design genius Billy Jett. Billy built a lab set inside the Bronson Canyon caves that was amazing. And for the fans, in addition to CGI, we also had a "live" shrew puppet for certain sequences... we couldn't make this movie without showing the shrews trying to gnaw ther way into doors and under fences.
