This post first appeared in my newsletter I WAS BIGFOOT'S SHEMP.
Easter has come and gone, always a busy season for me. It's when I get on social media and interact with all of the people watching PETER ROTTENTAIL. For something I wrote back in the early 2000s, it has just hung around and hung around. It's fun to see.
It doesn't hurt that now you can watch it for free on Tubi.If you want to add more spirituality to your Easter viewing next year, another movie I wrote, NOAH'S SHARK, is free on Tubi now too.
Man, Tubi, I tell you what. Not that long ago I didn't know what it was, and now almost my entire career is on there (including what I thought was a lost movie I didn't get a credit for writing!). A lot of people are saying it's now the go-to place to see independent movies and it's hard to argue the point. What I like to do is type a word into the search engine, like "Amityville" or "Zombie" or "Ninja" or "Scarecrow" or "Massacre" and just click through a bunch of stuff and get the ebb and flow of it. It's a fun exercise to sort of get the juices flowing.
We are all trying to figure out how to get the machine running again in the movie world, even way out in the hinterland where I am. I am still quietly writing away, and maybe yet this year some of the fruits of that b-flavored labor will be out in the world.
I'm even falling behind on my annual goal of reading 50 books a year, but one I've read this season-- THE HEAP by Sean Adams--is a book I can recommend to people who like my stuff.
Hopefully will have some news to report soon, but until then, best to you all and thanks for sticking with me.
