Clive Barker just sent this very nice note about ABCs of Death entry T IS FOR TRICK so I feel comfortable sharing it with folks who might be interested in checking it out and possibly ‘hitting the Heart Vote button’ like Clive describes at the link below. I’m currently in 13th place out of 171 entries! Top ten go on to the next level. If you like it, please VOTE! Hope you’re good! Cheers!

Shade
From Clive:
Hey there Shade,
That was an elegantly shot, sharply edited and strongly conceived and directed four minutes of film-making. Colour me impressed. You managed to imply a whole range of character options for us, from which entirely plausible narrative solutions spilled. Very fine, courageous work from you and your actors. I hit the heart to say I’d been there. I hope it helps and i will certainly make sure my guys do the same.
My entry for Drafthouse Films’ ABCs of Death short film contest. Winner ends up in the final movie! If you like it, please vote! Four minutes long, have fun!
Just entered JT Petty’s Hellbenders 3-D contest. They have 19 entries. They’re picking three to cut into the film. We’ll know July 1st! I had a great time making this with New York actor Nate Faust (www.natefaust.com) and New York musician Bliss Blood of the Pain Teens (www.blissblood.com). Here’s the vid!
I entered the Kuchar Brothers-inspired film contest for the documentary IT CAME FROM KUCHAR. You can vote once a day, every day, until March 26. Final voting is April 2nd by the judges and the Kuchar Brothers themselves! Winners get screened and live-streamed on April 9th, the film’s theatrical premiere. Cheers!
Hey! If you’ve got a moment please merely click on the below and help me get some views for my contest entry for the Washington State Bar Association’s The Promise of Justice for All contest. And vote if you feel like it. I know it’s not my usual thing but I’m happy I made something else videowise. Thanks!
I helped make this film happen in small ways that helped big things occur. Come join Robert Meyer Burnett, Dave Parker, and Shade Rupe in welcoming a new horror film unto the Earth.
UK publisher Headpress and Shade Rupe have joined forces to release a book of the last 24 years of Shade’s interviews with various creators of darker art: DARK STARS RISING.
