High concept gothic horror comedy achieved on a low budget. 

Producer/Director: Dan West

Dan West contains minute amounts of great white shark DNA and liquefies solid food with regurgitated stomach acids like a gigantic housefly. In his human form he has co-written and co-directed the films, Monsturd and RetarDEAD with his frequent collaborator, Rick Popko. He is the author of a trilogy of comedic horror novels: The House That Dripped Gore, And They All Died Screaming and Island of the People Drinkers. Other books include: Monsturd, the film novelization tie-in (co-authored with Rick Popko), The Decayed Whateley Boodline of Dunwich Massachusetts, Dan West's Homemade Embalming Fluid, and Dan West's Web of Lies.

                                              Independent Filmmaker Seeks Victorian & Edwardian Interior Locations for Feature Film

I am seeking any usable interiors decorated in Victorian or Edwardian décor for a 1902-set period feature film project being shot in and around San Francisco. Any filming in volunteered locations will be fast and as unobtrusive as humanly possible. I am using minimal equipment (three lights, camera on tripod and a microphone on a stand.) Compensation for location use can be negotiated to the owner’s or renter’s satisfaction and I am willing to entertain any fee within reason for a low budget film. As these are tricky locations to pin down, all recommendations will be welcome. The feature film is a comedy horror film written in the vein of Monty Python. Please include photographs and desired financial compensation for one-two hours of location use. My production design goal is to replicate the British Hammer horror films of the 1950s and 1960s.
