2016 - In the springtime we started filming the first episode of our web series 'Regular Dudes'. It was the first major production that we did as Flint Rat Films. It tells the story of former childhood best friends Jeff and Cody reconnecting after many as Jeff discovers that Cody has been secretly squatting in his house.
We learned a lot of lessons making this. Chief among them: it is probably best if everyone on the cast and crew isn't constantly drinking whiskey between each take. Or if you must, at least get something better than black velvet.
Re-watching it now, it still gets a few good laughs from me, though I did forget just how dark this episode was (the Cody character is a psychopath basically the entire time).
Kevin's camera work is really excellent as is Dominique's editing. Keith's moody cover of "Pump up the jam" is still just as incredible and "Welcome to Jonestown" by The Sunburns is a killer needle drop for the end.
Anyway, we're old.
You can check out the episode on our YouTube!

Before we started actual principal photography for Cocaine Stepdad, we tried to get into character by going to outdoor public events as Terry and Kyle.
We ended going to a free weird festival put on by mountain dew in Hell Michigan to promote their short-lived Flaming Hot Mountain Dew. (Pauly D did a DJ set)
We found out it was really hard to get footage in front of large groups when you're running around like two loud buffoons, because everyone will just stare at you and be afraid.
Dylan had later described his experience to me as ego death.
Anyway we didn't end up using any of the footage in the movie.

Bloody Sundae (2017)
"It's the hottest of the summer when a mysterious ice cream man shows up to deliver his sweet salvation to the needy masses."
I'm still very proud of this one.
Everyone involved gave great performances and Dennis is just perfect as the deranged Ice Cream Man, coming with his own speech that he wrote to deliver in the movie.
The Mr. Tastee ice cream van was BEAUTIFULLY painted by my friend Mar as a reference to the classic Nickelodeon show "The Adventures of Pete and Pete".
We experimented a lot with practical blood fx and had some really great kills by Courtney and a gruesome skin peeling effect by Taylor.
Jeff concocted a compressed air powered squib with three separate blood tubes and we never quite got the hang of it and ended up regularly detonating between takes. Though when it came down to it, we got the shot!
