Big Update
Hey, friends - Here's an update for those interested. Lots of projects in the works right now. Raymond & ScumWe hope you guys got a chance to check out "There Is No Dana, Only Zuul" on The FuMP and hopefully you dug it (even if you didn't know what movie we were referencing or if you were pissed we didn't include id3 tags.) The new song is an acoustic version of what will probably be a "fatter" song on ALBUM III, which we are still working on. We've got two songs finished, four songs very close and several more in the advanced planning stages. This Saturday, Chris Waffle (from a band I can't recall at the moment) will be bringing his bass and his skills to join us on the "very close" to being finished songs. The Untitled Comedy Music/Dementia DocumentaryI have yet to hear from anyone that attended MarsCon this month to see if anybody got any footage for the documentary. If you did, please let me know. This is the kind of project where I'm collecting footage here and there. It could go on forever...but I hope not. The Big New MovieThe really big news...so big it requires a press release...is "the new movie." For those paying attention (for whatever reason that may be), you know I directed a very low budget horror flick called Stupid Teenagers Must Die! that somehow got distribution and is probably sitting in the "previously viewed bargain bin" at your local Hollywood Video right now. Well, it's time to make another movie and I think it'll be something the folks that follow the Dementia world here on LiveJournal will enjoy. Why? Cause the whole thing takes place at a con. With a party floor. Sound familiar? Read on: LAST TIME, THEY WENT AFTER STUPID TEENAGERS…
THIS TIME, THEY’RE GOING AFTER EVERYBODY!Orange County, CA. - Off Set Pictures, the production company behind 2007’s horror comedy, Stupid Teenagers Must Die!, has announced the development of their next horror film, Everybody Dies at ScaryCon. The film will reunite STMD! director Jeff C. Smith and producer Sara Parrell as well as a majority of the cast. New to the team is producer Jason Marsden, who is currently producing the thriller Locker 13 before cameras start rolling on ScaryCon. Everybody Dies at ScaryCon centers on a small group of filmmakers that are premiering their zero budget horror movie, Everybody Dies, at a popular horror convention at a hotel in the middle of nowhere. “And, of course, something goes terribly wrong and people start getting hacked to pieces” says Smith, who also wrote the screenplay. When asked how much of the film is autobiographical, Smith simply answers “Some.” “The exciting part for me on ScaryCon is the cameos we’re lining up. This is a horror convention after all, so we’re gonna fill the place with icons of the genre. If you’ve seen Robert Altman’s The Player, this is the horror movie version of that. We can’t tell you who’s going to be in there just yet as we’re still ironing out the deals, but I think horror fans are going to be very excited once we announce our cast.” Production dates have not been announced as the producers are still in the process of securing funding.

New fan video
We don't know the name of the person who created this (their YouTube name is "psygyl"...which makes the imagination go crazy), but they have put together their own video for the live version of "Does This Make Me Gay?"...and we love it! Check it out: | | Monday, February 23rd, 2009 | | 10:34 am |
Untitled Comedy Music/Dementia Documentary - UPDATE!
When I first came up with the idea of shooting a documentary about the world of comedy music/dementia, I foolishly thought I’d be able to shoot the whole thing myself. But after a year of trying to collect footage from around the country, I’ve come to realize that there is just too much stuff that we’re missing. Last year at MarsCon, I was able to get interviews with some great performers and was able to capture a few concert performances, but there were tons of other musicians and fans I wanted to talk with! I missed a whole day of concerts because I couldn’t be ten places at once. Frankly, I need help. So we, the makers of this Untitled Comedy Music/Dementia Documentary, are coming to you, the people of the comedy music/dementia community! We want you to help us shoot this documentary!

STMD! At MarsCon
Sadly, we're screening at the exact same time that Karaoke starts, the same time that Saturday Night Filking starts, the same time as Rob Balder's Web Comics panel...but if you find you're in the mood for a zero budget horror/comedy with excessive violence and gratuitous nudity, STUPID TEENAGERS MUST DIE! will be screening at MarsCon on Saturday the 1st at 10pm. And I will be there to do a little intro or Q&A if people have Q's to A. So see you kids at MarsCon... | | Thursday, January 24th, 2008 | | 5:58 pm |

A new ad from our new international sales rep:
A few months ago, we signed a deal with Echelon Studios making the company Stupid Teenagers Must Die!'s international sales rep. After months of working on everything that goes into preparing a movie for international distribution, Echelon is now "out there" trying to sell STMD! to the world! And here's an ad they recently sent out to buyers. Check out the awesome Echelon version of our DVD art: | | Tuesday, November 13th, 2007 | | 3:01 pm |
Chances are a lot of my LiveJournal friends will be asleep by the time the interview starts, but in case you need to use my sooooothing voice as a lullaby... | | Thursday, November 8th, 2007 | | 11:07 pm |

CRAGGY!
A podcast called "Cult Radio A-Go-Go" is presenting awards called "CRAGGYs" to people involved in independent horror and the like and I have been nominated for "Best Indie Genre Artist/Film Maker/Entrepreneur of 2007"! Weird, huh? Anyway, it would be quite fun to win something! The last award I ever got was a "Participant" ribbon in the 3rd grade Speech Meet. So if you have the time and/or desire, click over to http://www.cultradioagogo.com/category2.html and vote for "Jeff C. Smith" (cause that's me!) and make my dream come true. And please do it today or tomorrow (Friday) cause it all ends at midnight (Pacific time) on Saturday. Thanks! | | Saturday, October 20th, 2007 | | 1:07 pm |
STMD! In This Month's Fangoria!
A review of Stupid Teenagers Must Die! appears in this month's issue of Fangoria Magazine and we made out just fine! The biggest complaint seemed to be the new tagline's "warning" that our distributor dreamed up for the DVD cover (which we're in the middle of trying to change for future pressings of the DVD.) So we did good, friends. In fact, Stupid Teenagers Must Die! received a much better review than Snoop Dogg's Hood Of Horror! And that movie has Billy Dee Williams! You can see a scan of the review right here: http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=151040717&blogID=320808754 | | Thursday, October 18th, 2007 | | 11:32 am |
On the air tonight...
Tonight I'm going to be on the "Darker Side Of The Moon" show somewhere between the hours of 6pm - 10pm Pacific time (8pm to 10pm Central, 9pm to 11pm Eastern) talking about all things "Stupid Teenagers Must Die!". If you have the means, check it out at the following link: http://darkersideradio.com. Thanks! | | Sunday, October 7th, 2007 | | 8:17 pm |
Best Indie Genre Artist/Filmmaker/Entrepreneur...I like the sound of that...
So I'm up for an award from a podcast called "Cult Radio A-Go-Go." "Best Indie Genre Artist/Filmmaker/Entrepreneur!" Pretty sweet -- not sure why I was nominated but I'll totally take it! If you have the time, can you throw a vote my way? If you like "Stupid Teenagers Must Die!", if you like me, if you like people with generic names like Smith...whatever the reason, it would awesome to win something. Cause the only award I have is my "Participant" trophy from little league. And the "golden" baseball player on the trophy is now green. So please vote for "Jeff C. Smith"...Here's the link: http://www.cultradioagogo.com/category2.html |
