SAVAGE in Fango

The industry leading magazine Fangoria did a piece on Savage for their website. It was a really cool piece with exclusive photos and comments from the producers and cast. Unfortunately they misspelled producer Justin Soponis' name wrong, but we'll forgive them. Bigfoot may not, but Fearmakers will.

SAVAGE Premiere at Horrorfind

(Fans gather around to meet the cast of Savage and watch the trailer)
Lines forming almost an hour before showtime. Standing room only. Filled to capacity. Many people had to be turned away, disappointed that they were going to miss the premiere screening of our latest film Savage. Cast and crew were on hand for the premiere, including Martin Kove, Lisa Wilcox, Jack Harrison and Tony Becker who plays hero ranger Owen in the film.

The screening was a success. Many horror fans coming up to us afterward complimenting us on the movie, asking "how'd you do that?" and telling us their favorite part. One fan even told us it was the best Bigfoot movie he'd ever seen and he'd "seen them all". Pretty nice compliment considering the company our movie is in.
(Tony Becker talks with fans of Savage)
We also had a reprise of Dismal fans, unveiled our Strange Stuff label, reunited with cast of Death4Told, Margot Kidder and Tom Savini, and previewed our upcoming feature Lance Steel with great response and enthusiasm. We will be bringing the Lance preview to everyone in the near future.

In all, another successful representation for Fearmakers at Horrorfind Weekend. We hope to keep making the movies and bringing them back to our growing fan base at Horrorfind.

Wilcox, Buckley to Judge "Makeup Wars"

Lisa Wilcox, star of Nightmare on Elm St. 4&5 and Fearmakers' creature feature Savage, and Fearmakers' own Bo Buckley will be on a panel to judge the Makeup Wars at the Horrorfind Weekend 11 convention. There will be 6 teams of makeup artists competing. Each team gets the same makeup kit, same parameters and one hour to complete their creation.

Bo has plenty of experience in makeup fx, having graduated from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh specializing in makeup fx. And Lisa is no stranger to the makeup arts, having appeared in a number of horror flicks including working side by side with THE Freddy Krueger himself. She knows good monster makeup when she sees it.

New Site Unleashed

Lots happening this year for Fearmakers. First we release Dismal to the world and everyone knows "You've got Dale's word on it". Then we added a new logo and name (no longer using "Studios"). Now comes the latest for Fearmakers in 2009, the new website. All the movies, all the pictures, the news and even games! I know, it's crazy talk. But that's what we've done. With the help of the fine developers at Mad Hatter Design Studio we have a brand new site with tons of content. A one stop shop if you will. Check it out. And we'll be adding more soon. More games, more swag and of course, more movies.

They Call Me Lance

The man, the myth, the legend, Lance Steel is one badass monster hunter. In the upcoming weeks we'll unveil a short preview of Lance Steel full of menacing monsters, hot women and smoking guns. "This film is going to be a lot of fun," says Producer Bo Buckley. "For everyone else it's going to be a lot of work, but I sleep mostly during production."


Lance Steel will mark the directorial debut of Fearmakers producer Justin Soponis. "I'm not nervous at all about directing my first film," says Soponis. "But just to be sure I've ordered my own personal honeywagon (aka movie set toilet) to be near me at all times."

Lance Steel: the prequel will premiere at the Horrorfind Weekend Sept. 25-27.
