About Me

we are mad monkey productions. we are a pittsburgh-based film production company currently getting ready to film our sophmore feature. the people responsible for this moral travesty guised as an underground filmmaking co-op are Mike McKown, Pittsburgh-area video guru and editor extrodinaire ([email protected]), Jim Towns ([email protected]) , Los Angeles-based Pittsburgh expatriot, and the lovely and talented Cate Boleyn([email protected]) , who has been seduced into our degenerate vortex through a voodoo mind-control spell...(insert sinister laughter here)...MMP's first feature is called PROMETHEUS TRIUMPHANT, A FUGUE IN THE KEY OF FLESH -it's a throwback to 20's german expressionist silent film (music, no sound, title cards, the works!) set in the period that stylistically looks like it was done decades ago. the content, however, leans toward a much more graphic contemporary edginess! You can order it HERE!stay tuned for updates about our next project! it's going to be good deal more intense than our last, but will still have the same degree of artistic integrity in the visuals and narrative as our previous endeavors! keep watching the blogs!I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

people interested in or working in the independant film bizness...actors and actresses from all over, sfx makeup people, lawyers who work pro-bono, production companies who want to hire wacky but highly talented filmmakers to work on their films, wealthy people looking to invest in that edgy horror that the kiddies love so...people who like to get naked on camera (for art's sake of course...)and have fake blood poured on them... fanatical followers...
