What's going on in my life.

Today I am sitting on my bed watching George A. Romero's 'Monkey Shines'.

It is February 23rd. 3 days before I was supposed to shoot my short 'Day of the Neanderthal'.

I say "supposed" because earlier in the month Maryland was hit by, not 1, but two blizzards. Resulting in over 3 feet of snow....which has yet to melt.

So instead of forcing my cast and crew to suffer through cold, snow and mud I have decided to wait for things freshen up.

During this down time I have started writing a feature film with two of my friends. This is something I have became extremely passionate about and will stop at nothing to get made!

We are currently working every day on the script and hope to start pre-production immediately when it and 'DotN' are finished. I can honestly say it's something original and exciting; that I hope in the future you all can see!

I will keep you guys posted!!

An Introduction to Riot Releasing

So what is Riot Releasing?

Riot Releasing is an independent film/production company started by C.D. Kelly (me!). I currently own the rights to the 1982 SOV Slasher film 'Sledgehammer', which I plan on releasing on DVD in the very near feature on the Riot Releasing DVD label.

Plus on February 26th weekend I begin to shoot the first short film on the RR banner, 'Day of the Neanderthal'.

So in a nutshell Riot Releasing is a home for all things horror!

Stay tuned for updates on my various projects and any ramblings I might have on the genre.
