"Not 'Hollywood Independent' - writer John Oak Dalton is the real Real Thing." --Cinema Minima."Very weird and unpopular b-movies and comics."--Blogalicious. "After watching the film I am left to wonder if he had some childhood trauma he is not telling us about."--IMDB user review. "Screenwriter John Oak Dalton wanted to be in Hollywood. Instead, he's in the rustic kitchen above the Germania General Store, stirring a pot of boiling hot dogs."

Look out! Nazi Zombies!
The first picture from second-unit shooting on HELLSHOCK, courtesy John Polonia. Medic Todd Carpenter is soon to be in need of medical attention as a zombie Nazi comes a-creepin'.
I tell you John, that image of a "Nazizombie" holding a schmeisser (sp?) sub-machine gun is your casewrap art for the DVD.
Get plenty of still of that guy in a variety of poses and angles.
For you filmmakers out there - your still camera is your greatest asset on set to "sell" your film that you have. Always, always get lots of shots of scenes from the most dramatic angle possible. Every shot needs to be a cover shot.
These are authentic costumes on loan from a local guy who apparently doesn't mind, or isn't aware, how much mud and blood will end up on them. This is from a dream sequence where the Nazi-zombie makes the squad's medic Cathcart dig his own grave, then rattatattat! in he goes.
Thanks for the comments. Hopefully I'll pry some more stills from the Brothers, and I will take a pantsload of my own when I go out there.

I know it would be rental suicide, but I'd love for them to make this black & white in the end.
