Smash Cut

Last summer friend Lee Demarbre wrapped on filming "Smash Cut" a film starring artist and porn star Sasha Grey, and horror legend and musician David Hess. I was lucky enough to be cast in a speaking role (Gretchen Gregorski - Film Critic) for this movie which is Demarbre's tribute to Herschell Gordon Lewis and inspired by his movie "Color Me Blood Red". Also my friend Jennilee Murray plays Gigi Spot the saucy stripper who's untimely death sends Able Whitman (Hess) off the deep end. Be sure to watch for it in local theatres. (most likey the MAYFAIR). Here's an interview i did with Lee last summer.

Smash Cut will have its world premiere at the Fantasia Festival in Montreal this July 18th.



"Frustrated with his most recent film doing poorly, film director Able Whitman finds himself at a strip club where he meets and takes home one of the strippers, Gigi Stops. They have an accident on the road which kills Gigi leaving Able to figure out what to do with the body. He conveniently decides to "disguise" the body parts as set pieces to his new horror film. When this new design style is met with much praise, Able decides he needs more parts to fulfill his new "project". Written by rivethead808

Smash Cut is a satire of the filmmaking industry and the challenges of independent filmmaking, with a story that draws on the filmmakers' real-life experiences. It follows the murderous exploits of Able Whitman, a horror-film director whose films are panned by critics and audiences alike - until he starts killing people and using their body parts as props in his new flick."
