It's been a few months since we've gotten an update on writer/director Dave Zagorski's survival horror Killing Brooke, but he dropped us a line recently with some news on both that film as well as his newest project, The Devil's Nightmare.
Zagorski tells us, "I've recently just completed a rough cut on Killing Brooke. It's all put together, but I still have audio and color correction to do as well as adding credits and some other minor tweaking. All in all it looks like it's going to run about 75 minutes, which is a little shorter than I had hoped but still long enough to work as a feature. Overall it looks great; Jared (Skolnick, the Dp) has an amazing eye and did a really good job shooting. The cast did an amazing job as well, bringing these characters I wrote to life. There are definitely some standout performances. I've...
