    Want To See Roddy Piper Fight Cthulhu?





    Indiegogo here, fund it!

    https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/portal-to-hell

    I put this in Upcoming Horror Films because they need $20k to make this and with over 20 days left..they already have 5k. So, it's probably going to happen.

    Jack is a simple man with simple needs. Mostly he just needs to be left alone to read his book. It’s a good book and he likes it, or at least he would if the tenants of the building he manages weren’t so damn needy themselves. And it’s not just blown fuses and clogged toilets here ... no, when the building power goes out the culprit is a pair of tenants opening a portal to hell in the basement. Does this count as building maintenance? Is battling the supernatural part of Jack’s job description? Maybe not, but if Jack can’t close the portal the entire building and – let’s face it – the whole world is screwed.

    Portal To Hell!!! is a short film born out of the love that director Vivieno Caldinelli (Picnicface, This Hour Has 22 Minutes) and writer Matt Watts (Michael: Tuesdays and Thursdays) share for the genre-mashing films of the late 1980’s and specifically the performance of WWF (it wasn’t always the WWE, kids) superstar Rowdy Roddy Piper in They Live. “Why didn't Piper ever really do another film like that? We should write something.” And so they did. And then Piper himself read it and liked it. And so what started as an idle wish is now becoming reality.

    And we’ve got an amazing team that starts with Caldinelli and Watts and continues on to include the producer of cult hit Todd & The Book Of Pure Evil, the executive producer of The Raid, the mad effects genius behind Manborg and the aural synth-maniacs Voyag3r. Heck, Portal To Hell!!! already has the support of the Harold Greenberg Fund’s Shorts-To-Features program, which gives us some funds to make this short film version of the Portal to Hell!!! story while we write and PLAN FOR THE FEATURE-LENGTH VERSION.

    With help from the Harold Greenberg Fund, we have support to make a basic version of Portal To Hell!!! as a short film. It means we're calling in a ton of favours and a lot of people donating their time for the love of the project. But we want to make the most kick-ass version of Portal to Hell!!! that we possibly can. We want this to be the return to form that Roddy deserves! So the money we raise will go towards better locations, more stunts, and more time to create more complicated special effects ... more of a lot of things that we just can’t get for free.

    Man, Lovecraft's mythos is becoming a punchline in the film making community.

    Having said that, though, I'd watch this.
