Death On Demand started life as a bit of a dare. While attending the Cannes Film Market, we noticed that everywhere we looked there were horror titles being bought and sold. Although I am a horror fan I had never considered making one, but after we met a couple of sales agents I became convinced that we should not only produce a DVD for Sesame Street (Exploring Together with Matt Lauer) but also a bloodbath in the same month! I figured that while we might not do better, we couldn’t do worse! We got back from Cannes all fired up and I remember walking back into the office and saying “We’re making a horror film all we need is a script and the money!” We dove in and three months later had located a script which certainly was not a gem but was acceptable. Kevin and I doctored it a little bit and raised the money quickly and made a deal with Barry Barnholtz who eventually distributed the film through MTI Video in the summer of 2008, and then was released in Germany and Austria by KSM in January 2009. In 2010 The film was released in Australia and New Zealand and was also be re-released on BlueRay in the US. I will not pretend this is anything resembling a great movie, the film was an accomplishment on many levels. I never want to shoot a film again in 14 days! I did learn a lot about what works and doesn’t work and while I can sometimes cringe at my own work at the end of the day the film has had major retail presence, is carried on Netflix, Blockbuster, Hollywood Video, and has created a big fanbase for a couple of the ladies involved. So for us, our ‘crappy little horror film” was a great adventure.
