(My furry son Luke this past Christmas)

It has been Philippine hot here in the Michigan the last two days. The rain might have brought in some coolness so I’m thankful. The garden is growing in abundance and we need to get in there and harvest beans, squash, tomatoes and more. Also after a week of worry my furry son should be coming home today or tomorrow from the MSU animal hospital. He had some internal bleeding and it was discovered to be the result of a tick born disease from a woodchuck he…sent to heaven. He started improving yesterday from proper treatment and we hope to get him home soon.

Aside from all the animal issues I had a very productive week. Let’s look at a few updates and I will get into development.

T Rex and DJ Perry (Moses & Jesus) on set “40 Nights”

40 Nights

We’ve had almost daily updates with this first film in our QUEST TRILOGY – here is a new video review. I appreciate the time taken. He lists his personal LIKES and DISLIKES and I especially like his unease with the angel/Jesus conversations. It is unsettling for many to think that maybe the angel class does not think highly of mankind. Here is his review but I hope you will all watch and form your own opinions.

CHASING THE STAR

Editing on #Chasingthestar

I had a few good chats with our director Bret Miller this week. We’ll be looking to release the first film footage in the form of a teaser or trailer in the coming weeks. The music is in full swing and soon VFX and additional sound design. I’m excited by where we are with this film and that motivates me as we develop Part 3: “The Christ Slayer” shooting in 2017.

“Donors,” “Ashes of Eden,” and “Bestseller” continue to expand their circle of distribution. Inspirational, thriller – whatever your taste, we have a film for you.

DEVELOPMENT

WILD FAITH

An old property that failed to launch was the point of inspiration for the new project with director Jesse Low (40 Nights). The film is entitled, “Wild Faith” and will star Shane Hagedorn (Ashes of Eden) in a lead role. Location scouting and casting is in full swing. Trust me when I say we are looking at all of you. IF you have a sizzle reel under 4 min feel free to email it directly and I will pass it along. (perrydj@aol.com) Michigan-based actors will get a stronger look. We are flying in a few name actors to participate but are limited in flights and hotels so if you’re not selected know budgetary/location is also factoring into that decision. I will be in front of the camera on this film and I’m looking forward to that.

Knight Chills 20th Anniversary

KNIGHT CHILLS 1 & 2

There is a whole lot of development underway with this film that will likely film parts in Nov-Jan 2017. The original film is having a special release in 2017 with the book. The sequel will have a book and perhaps a graphic novel. We will be announcing our director for this project shortly. We’ve been doing camera tests, castings, reads, concept work and distribution talks. I’m excited to be bringing this franchise back into the limelight.

The Christ Slayer (Part 3 “The Quest Trilogy”)

Again we are looking at shooting in the AZ area working with our west coast team. That script is being sent to returning cast members. We’ve also been exploring several possible directors. I’m REALLY excited about this third film!

Overall, it has been a great couple of weeks of promotion, post work and development and once again we’ll be moving into pre-production. It’s a lot of hard work to do these film projects and at the end of the day we produce them for all of you – the audience. So once again, thank you!

Have a great day and week ahead!
