Hello Everyone,

It's been a while. I hope everyone's been doing well and that you all had a safe and happy New Year's. This past year has been crazy for us over here at the "FCS" camp and I have no doubt that this coming year will prove to be even crazier.

I wanted to make everyone aware of an amazing new magazine that's hit the scene called ShriekFreak Quarterly. ShriekFreak is a horror magazine and it's got it all. There are cool interviews, interesting articles and columns, movie reviews, book reviews, game reviews, bios on sweet up-and-comers in the industry, ect. I have their first issue and it's a great read.

Issue 2 just became available on the first of the year and it's a very special issue for us here on "FCS" for a few reasons. Inside you'll find a handful of "For Christ's Sake" related goodies. First off, there's a highly amusing interview the man, the myth, the Legend - Joel D. Wynkoop! He's the King of the B-movies and he talks to ShriekFreak about his crazy life in the indie horror scene. After reading it you'll see why he's the King. Another point of interest is the fact that "FCS" actress and producer Nicola Fiore is their featured "Sinister Siren". Check out the piece about her career, upcoming projects and more. Plus, there's a handful of sexy pictures too. Finally, inside you'll find my article I wrote, a ShriekFreak exclusive, which is a "For Christ's Sake" tell-all. Read about who the uest to clone Christ wasn't as easy as most of you might think. We had a lot of obstacles thrown in our way at all turns. It was crazy in and of itself and you'll find whacky info about the trials of our production that you won't be able to read anywhere else but here! So be sure and check it out and lemme know what you think. The feedback is always welcome.

You can order your issue of ShriekFreak Quarterly at this link: http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=2894775. You can get the PDF download for a mere $3.00 or you can grab the collectable print issue for only $8.00. So go check it out. You won't be sorry you did. And while you're at it, be sure and add the ShriekFreak Quarterly Myspace page to profile as well. It can be found here: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewProfile&friendID=342388830.

As always thanks for the interest and the support. You're all beyond awesome.

Now, now go have a great 2009 everyone!!

All My Best,
Dustin Hubbard

Hello,

I wanted to quickly address some situation that has come to my attention recently.

Misconceptions 1: The Craigslist Ads

They appeared on the date December 4th, 2008. They were posted by an unknown person, who may be potentially involved within the production of "FCS", placed an ad on Craigslist seeking an investor for post-production. I have no clue who posted this notice but it completely and utterly NOT TRUE. We are NOT seeking an investor to help push us through the final stages of post. We are doing just fine. Even if weren't we'd seek out a competion bond, not an investor.

This ad was posted on not only Craigslist in Manhattan but also in Miami, DC and Los Angeles. I have contacted multiple people within the production and asked for clarification as to why this ad may have been posted and ultimately who did it. My search has come up fruitless though.

So to all of you out there, if you see anything by way of ads seeking investors on this project please know that they are FALSE! Also, if you do happen to come across anymore of these ads please forward them to me ASAP!

It's saddenign to knwo that someone out there has been placing these ads honestly. Maybe they think they're only tryign to help. Well, the way I take it is that whoever is doing it is most certainly involved in the film and that they have zero faith in Michael, Nicola and I's abilities to get this thing finished without someone swooping in and saving us. NOT THE CASE!

Also, if you are responsible for these ads don't be coward. Send me a private message and own up to them. Show some level courage admitt it. I'd t least respect you more for telling me.

Misconception 2: Release Dates

I have been being contacted regularly asking about when the public screenign of "FSC" are going to be going down this month. I amnot sure as to who these people ahve been talking to but currently there are NO public screenings planned this year. Anything you may have heard is nothing more than misinformation and until you hear it cme from me personally it's all hearsay. When an official release date and screening are set I will make it know here first and foremost.

Thanks for your time and if any of you have anything you'd like to say to me, ads you'd like to own up to posting or wanna tell me where you're hearing about all of these false release dates you know where to find me. These types of behavior will NOT tollerated!!

Take care and talk soon all!

Hi All,

So I took the time respond to the devilish mastermind behind our last hate mail issue. I'm sure you all remember that it came from a self-proclaimed satanist. His original message read as follows:

Subject

fuck u bitch...

Well, I got back to the dark side and was treated to another spectacularly written message. It was this:

well i am sorry if the name of ur profile had me thinking that it WAS cristian... and i did that... if it is an anti-crist thing than that is cool...

Ok, the fact that a guy who is "satanic" would actually try and hate on a killer Jesus flick in the first place it mind-boggling. At least devil worshippers seem to be apologetic until the Christian profilers. Apologetic yes, good spellers . . . absolutely not!!

Dustin

Hello All,

I just wanted to give everyone who might not have known a heads up. "FCS" actress and producer Nicola Fiore recenty did a cool interview with Nic Brown of Rogue Cinema. If you have a moment click on the link and read it here:  http://www.roguecinema.com/.

For those of you who are extra adventurous, scroll down below where Nicola's piece is found on the main page and you'll find another Nic Brown interview with low budget director Jim Wynorski. He talks a lot about the screening of his new masterpiece-of-shit (I'll assume based on title alone!) "Cleavagefield" that was screened at the recent B-movie Celebration in Franklin, Indiana that Nicola attended along with "FCS" cameo actor and Troma head Lloyd Kaufman. Why would I think this piece about big Jim would interest any of the friends on this page you might ask!? Well, turns out that while he was there promoting his newest big boobie spoof he revealed that his next film he wanted to be a serious horror film about Jesus Christ coming back from the dead and getting revenge because he's pissed off. So there you have it folks. Maybe I should feel flattered that an auteur of his calibur is planning on ripping this film off a that Michael, Nicola and I have been working our asses off over?! I mean hell, I haven't been as lucky as him to be directing softcore satires starring bad porn actresses and lame, by-the-numbers Sci-Fi Channel movies!! At least Christ will be a ghost or some shit in his movie

Dustin Hubbard

Here is our new Hate Mail!!!!! :)  This time it wasn't some Christian who was pissed because Jesus is being cloned .  Who would have thought right???  Well this guy was offended because he loves Satan!  Go figure!  Again, it's short and to the point...enjoy.....

Hello Again,

It's insane to think that one of our previously posted blogs entitled "Hate Mail" is by far our most read and commented blog yet. That specific post had been brewing for quite a long time because of the usual preachy messages we get. It wasn't until "For Christ's Sake" actor and co-producer Michael Kenneth Fahr told me I should post the message in blog that I decided to actually do so.

In my previous post I had said how I do in fact respond to all of these messages and that may have sounded insane or even like a waste of time. In truth it's probably both I'm not always known for my restraint or common sense I suppose. Haha. So tonight I kept my word and replied to this man with my take on his ridiculous message.

What follows is first his original message then followed by my, quite possibly over-long, reply.

Alabama Man:

You guys are sick............... My Lord Jesus Christ is not a joke nor should be mocked in a (B) movie such a yours. What jesus did for you and I giving his life to save fools like you and I from the burning pits of hell. I pray that you all gey right with the Lord before it's to late. You are in my PRAYERS. Make a movie about satan he is the LOSER in the end. Jesys Christ will never fail.

My Response:

Ok, I really don't know what to say to you. First off, if you were as good of a christian as you supposedly think you are you wouldn't be prejudging me or my film without having actually seen it first. It's certainly NOT your place to judge me or my actions, my film's religious merits or anything else for that matter. Only God has the right to judge me so try and actually live by the ideas Jesus taught like love for all mankind. This blind hate and finger-pointing seriusly gets old honestly.

I understand your viewpoint but you have NO CLUE what my film IS, what it's ABOUT or what's contained IN IT!! I would truly appreciate you reserving your whining and preaching until the film itself is completed and then it can speak for itself. Then once you've actually SEEN IT you can critique it all you want and however you want. At least then you'd have some basic knowledge of what you're trying to tear down.

Finally, next time you choose to contact someone you don't know about something you think you know about it might be wise to actually proof read and/or spell check you message. Your e-mail is a minefield of spelling errors and grammatical flubs. At least if you attempt to present your points professionally the person you're addressing may be more compelled to take you seriously. I mean, you even spelled Jesus wrong!! A simple attention to detail can go a long way.

I'm sure I'll never hear from you again and that's perfectly fine by me. Please take what I've said and think on it some. Maybe you'll learn to be the christian you CLAIM to be.

Take care and all my best to you.

Dustin

Well surprising this man DID respond to my message, not once but TWICE!! Next you'll find both of his replies below.

Reply 1:

LOL !!! A mine field :) thats funny. only 2 words spelled incorrectly and 1 word out of place -- Gey -Guy and Jesys - Jesus.. You are so freaken funny. I'm looking forward to seeing this BLOCKBUSTER hit movie. How much is admission 50 cents.

Reply 2:

I watched your so called previews and there is nothing christian about your movie and the poster that is on your profile with the whore showing her breast with Christ giong across. That is just trashy.

As evidenced above you can see that this man didn't take anything to heart that I said and proceeded to still judge, name call and make jokes at me and my film's expense. I can't say I expected him to though either. A typical religion-fueled nut won't listen to anything anyone else has to say because no matter what they're right. They're right because they're spouting the word of God and preaching His way. Yet, if Jesus Christ Himself were here today I find it difficult to believe that He'd act in such a manner as this man. He might not approve of a movie like "For Christ's Sake" but he wouldn't decontruct it's christian merits and call one of my lead actresses, the lovely Nicola Fiore, a whore! He'd probably talk to me about His Father and tell me about His teachings. He'd try and touch my soul, figuratively of course. He'd try and make a spiritual connection with me in the hopes of me accepting Him and his Father into my life.

Thankfully for people like this shmuck He is a merciful Lord, if He's even out there, because otherwise he'd likely strike down brainless, judgemental haters liek this idiot. You know the kind - those kinds of severely devote maniacs that take pride in tearing othrs down in His name. He'd surely not stand for such behavior as this because these people not only give Him and His Son Jesus Christ a bad name but all of christianity as well in the process.

In my opinion there's truly nothing wrong at all with being a faithfully religious person. Religion can give people hope and something important to believe in when they really need it. That's a great thing. The sad part of it, though, is when these same faithfully religious people decide to start using their beliefs as a weapon for the better good. In this behavior they don't prove any points to the masses. They just end up showing the world that they are the ones who are truly and completely lost.

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to address an issue that all of us involved in "For Christ's Sake" have had to deal with at one time or another. That issue is our vehement criticism we receive on a regular basis. Every now and again we'll get the typical messages or comments from people who just do not understand what kind of film we're trying to make here. Sometimes we even end up with some devotely christian people on the friends list from time to time but they sadly, I assume, think that "For Christ's Sake" is some sort of propaganda film made to spread the word of the Bible. Like a "Left Behind" film for instance. Then these same people end up examining the profile, the information, the trailers and the pictures more closely and they come realize that this profile is in fact here promoting a horror film, not a christian film. At this point we end up becoming the enemy to the religous base. It actually humors me to think that people instantly assume we're making a severely blasphemous movie once they figure out it's a horror film that has to do with Jesus Christ. Maybe the film we're making won't make these same people happy once they've seen the finished product but they should at least give it a chance first before they start casting stones. You know, try and live by the code they preach by. The Bible says "Judge not lest ye be judged". Then I get people coming up in this place just being completely rude and judgmental. It's just idiotic in my opinon and does nothing more than exemplify the fact that a lot of these same so-called "good christians" do not actually practice what they preach.

On the evening of Monday, October 6th I was treated to the latest bit of "For Christ's Sake" hate mail. Now, I will say that I do in fact reply to each and every one of these types of messages and in most all cases never end up hearing back from these people. Sadly, in the end they all just prove themselves to be cowardly zealots who are trying to bring us down for something that they know absolutely nothing about - our film.

Now, below you will find a copy of the hate mail message that we found inside of our Inbox this past Monday.
