The Alley Cat Theater Improv Challenge

Ever wanted to be in a LIVE STUDIO AUDIENCE while they tape a TV show?  Ever wanted to have your ideas used in that show?

Here’s your chance (for our local fans) to do it right here in LOUISVILLE!  And it benefits some GREAT charities.

The CW and WYCS present the Alley Theater’s "Improv Challenge."  In the same vein as "Who’s Line is it Anyway," teams of local talent square off in several rounds of hilarious improv comedy challenges.

And, by the way, Anubis Digital Studios has a team in the contest.

It’s being filmed on Thursdays at 7:30 PM in the Alley Theater at City Block.

You really need to come out for a show – and it would be great if you could show us some love this coming Thursday September 11.

See the website (www.alleytheaterlouisville.com) for details.

Review of Dead Moon Rising from PeanutTV in the United Kingdom

You've got to see this!  Alex, a young movie reviewer from the United Kingdom, loved Dead Moon Rising, even though movie hasn't been released in the UK yet, and he had a hard time getting a copy.

This is too funny.  We think this young man has a bright future ahead of him AND great taste in movies.

Enjoy!

Louisville Director Mark E. Poole to Speak at Fright Night Film Fest
Director Mark E. Poole, the creative force behind the award-winning zombie/comedy DEAD MOON RISING (DMR1) will be speaking at the 2008 Fright Night Film Fest in Louisville, KY on Sunday August 17, 2008 at 3:00 PM.  He will share his experience with...

DMR2 is in full production!
We're filming scenes for the trailer with a goal of completing in time for Fright Night in Mid-August.  Our First shoot was on Thursday, July 17, 2008.  We are using professional grade HD cameras, cranes, and digital capture equipment.  We filmed some post-apocalyptic empty street scenes.  We will need extras for other shoots very soon - so STAY TUNED.  This will be in smooth as silk slo-mo on HD, so it will be sexy-cool.

Who wants to be a Female Action Star?
This event will be shot LIVE at City Block on Wednesday, July 23, 2008.  The event starts at 9:00 PM and goes LATE (after midnight?). City Block is getting radio spots, and we’ll be drumming up support from the press.  This venue will gain us a lot of publicity for DMR2, the Halloween Zombie event, and we may actually find a diamond in the rough.  The goal is to find young women who can act and are hungry for a chance to star in the biggest action series to hit the Internet.  This will round out our existing beautiful cast (and Mike Seely).  John Wells of MSD has agreed to MC the event, and we hope to add Jason Crowe as co-anchor.  Artistic Director Mike Seely, Assistant Director Janice Poole, and Director Mark E. Poole will act as judges.

EOH
We are introducing EOH, the Magazine of Anubis Digital Studios.  It will be published in PDF.  Janice Poole will be Executive Editor. The format will be a photo spread of our cast and crew with articles.  We will eventually sell high-resolution copies of the pictures, and possibly posters.  Bill Spangler has completed two photo sessions (Tucky Williams & Kate Stanley), and we’ve given him direction to take provocative photos.  This will be a very classy vehicle, and Janice will have complete control over content.  She will work with others for submissions to round out each monthly edition.  

 

Who Wants to Be a Female Action Hero

As we continue to gear up production for DEAD MOON RISING 2, Anubis is continuing our trend of locating the best regional talent we can find.  And, in this case, we're looking for the best looking regional talent we can find.

First Episode of DMR 2 Released!

(COMMENTS - let us know what you think)


LOOK OUT BOYS AND GIRLS.  Our first feature, DEAD MOON RISING, took a year to make, and even longer to distribute.  Well, waiting just became a thing of the past.  DEAD MOON RISING 2 (DMR 2) will be delivered to you - as we make it.

And, even better, DMR 2 will be interactive.  You'll can participate in making the movie/series.  If you want to act, let us know.  If you want to write, let us know.  If you have suggestions on where the series should go, tell us. 

We're just getting started.  In this scene, we start to get some insight into how the "infection" is spreading around the world with a character that is quite creepy to many - a clown.

This is just a taste.  As we go along, you need to help us figure out just where this infection is coming from and HOW IT CAN BE STOPPED!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DEAD MOON RISING Hits It Big!

Wow!  Check this out.  DEAD MOON RISING hit the #7 most popular movie at Coconuts.  Not too shabby!


DEAD MOON RISING is Fangoria Magazine's Video of the Month!!

DEAD MOON RISING, Zombies Falling By CHRIS HABERMAN On a bright August day, DEAD MOON RISING writer/director Mark E. Poole made Louisville, KY history—and all it took was approximately 600 bikers, 500 zombies, one closed downtown street, one broken rib and one dead fish. The occasion was the outrageous final shoot for Poole’s saga of car rental clerks taking on the living dead, debuting this week on DVD from Anthem Pictures. The filmmaker actually had to turn away 300 zombie wannabes who showed up ready for battle, but the ones that got in the flick…oh, brother. Let’s take a look at the more interesting flesheaters...
