critics showing some love for the Glass Eye Pix Fall releases:

I SELL THE DEADNew trailer Online NOW!

"a jauntily gothic period spook story. smart, gruesome and inventive enough to more than please niche genre fans who are likely to spread the word to fellow admirers of gallows humor."Hollywood Reporter

"It’s a fast, fun, and very funny tribute to a classic style that’s refreshingly free of irony and pretension. It’s pure entertainment, a capital-M Movie"Film Monthly

THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL

"From the first shot of West's au courant riff on Rosemary's Baby - a slow track that curves just a hair off center as it reaches its destination - you know you are in the hands of a purposeful, sophisticated genre director."Film Comment

"the best “things that go bump in the night” genre film in a long time"Dread Central

THE VIEWER in FANTASIA FILM FEST!

My Stereoscopic 3D short film

THE VIEWER

is playing in Montreal’s FANTASIA FILM FESTIVAL next Monday, July 27th, ahead of Glenn McQuaid’s I SELL THE DEAD (for which I did sound design).

Should be a lot of fun watching the 3D on a giant screen with a big crowd. If you’re going to be in the Montreal area or have friends that would like to go, tickets and schedule info is available here.
