Five years ago, I wrote an action/horror script called "God of Vampires" about chinese vampires. It could described as an ultra-violent kungfu horror movie, like a combination of a Hong Kong Action flick and Evil Dead. Having no money and knowing that nobody gives you money to make your first film (at least in my world), I set out to raise enough money to make the film myself on a bare bones budget. I got people to invest about $26,000 and we started shooting on weekends and whenever people were available. Because our budget was so low, we all had to work regular jobs. As the years passed on I changed jobs many times but kept plugging away at "God of Vampires". Interestingly enough, as we progressed, the film became more involved and bigger in scale. The sets got more elaborate and the fx became more graphic. Instead of the enthusiasm fading away and slowing down it would build and gain momentum even with the production being halted for several months at a time due to an array of bizarre circumstances. We've had our lead actor in a really bad car accident, we've run out of funds, our cameraman actually went to Iraq to film the war during the first couple of months as an entreched journalist. He actually got mortar schrapnel in his ass when one blew up next to him! There are a million things that happened to us over the years both good and bad, but we pulled through anyway and five years later we have completed "God of Vampires".
Sincerely
A most humble Director
