Australia:
----------

RUNS was released retail on 21st October, and can be nabbed for $14.95 from JB HiFi and Big W -
call before you go shopping though, as they've not huge stock, and have been selling out.
(also heard that EzyDVD can order it in for you for $9.95 - not confirmed, but that's crazy cheap!).

South Africa:
-------------

RUNS played to a Halloween audience at the SA Horrorfest in Capetown, unfortunately the kid, mortgage
and jobs meant we couldn't be there - but apparently everyone had fun! Cheers to Paul and the
Horrorfest gang for screening RUNS!

US:
---

RUNS is now available in the US 'ON DEMAND' through the end of November with over
35 cable, satellite, and telco operators including:

Charter, Verizon, AT&T, DISH Network (VOD), Insight Communications, RCN, Armstrong Cable,
Bend Cable, Blue Ridge Cable, Buckeye Cable Systems, Cameron Communications, Cincinnati Bell,
CL Tel, Click, Community Television Company, D&E Communications, Duo County Telecom,

MUS Fiber Net, NTELOS, NuLInk, One Source, San Bruno Municipal Cable, Service Electric Cable,

Parting words:
--------------

So don't download a shitty pirated version of RUNS and watch it on your 14" computer screen in your basement.
Get it ON DEMAND in the US, or grab the DVD and enjoy the loooong unrated, uncut shower scene ;)

And we promise to stop going on about RUNS soon, and start on the next film!

Cheers, Doug & Stace.

At long last, the Aussie DVD is on retail sale - JB HiFi and Big W (plus others, and also available online) have it in.

Tickets are still available for the World Premiere of I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer starring Jai Koutrae - last seen as the lead in "Lucky Chance" on US TV!!

9pm Thurs 21st August - just a couple of days away, so jump on a plane, train or bus and join us at the Odeon West End, London...

It's a heady blend of Friday the 13th, Dressed to Kill and Test Match Special - so bring your comedy/horror sensibilities.

Blimey - waited a long time to be able to write that.

Our little slasher will spatter onto the big screen at this year's Frightfest in Old London Town, UK.

If you're in the UK, grab tickets fast - apparently this fest sells out...

We'll be there!

Here's a link to the Frightfest page:

Thanks to everyone who's been a part of the Runs, or who's waited patiently for it while we juggle work, baby and film!

Cheers! Doug, Stace and Dexter.

Hello!

Mnemonic Audio (Melbourne) - are a talented bunch, and we are very happy to have them on board to take care of the dialogue mix, foley, sound design, stereo/5.1 mix etc!!

So, we have to get them the video locked version via funky AAF/OMF file (Pro-Tools compatible project format) within a couple of weeks, and then they'll go hell-fa-leather on getting the film finished.

While Mnemonic are doing that, we'll be colour-correcting and grading the film, as well as completing the opening sequence and credits etc.

Then it's off to the distributors to sort out a deal! (and hopefully it'll be good timing to get it into a few film festivals).

Thanks for your patience!

Cheers, Doug.

PS - oh, and our kid's started walking and Stace has a nice shiny new job ;)

Hi,

Top-bloke and seasoned film journo Dave Michael Brown popped over recently to see a RoughCut of The Runs...

Fortunately for us, he liked what he saw (despite the sound mix and score not being complete, and some extra editing required here and there).

Read the review on Dave's blog on the Frightfest (UK's biggest horror film festival) site.

Cheers, Doug.

PS: we're getting there! Aiming for picture lock end of Dec, and then getting some pro's to finish of the sound mix...

Hi Folks,

The New Trailer has just premiered at Frightfest UK, and from all accounts the audience liked it and it looked great up on the big screen.

We've just uploaded this new funky trailer onto MySpace (called 'I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer - New Trailer'!) - sorry, but we've had to censor the rude bits :)

We're currently getting the film ready for DigiSPAA (Post Production competition here in Aus) and the North American Premiere at Silicon (HorrorYearBook) in October.

TTFN, Doug & Stace.

Test Screening was successful - many thanks to everyone at the Dungog Film Festival. It looked great up on the big screen, and we got some valuable feedback.

We're now doing a small re-edit, tweaking the score and improving some pacing in places... we'll then get it out to film festivals and distributors. Watch this space!

First confirmed festival is the SiliCon in San Jose Oct 5-7 2007 in association with HorrorYearBook.com - thanks guys!
