WHAT IS DOCTOR "S" THE MUSICAL?
This fall the Overtime Theater will proudly present a brand-new musical based on the award-winning hit local film, Dr. S Battles the Sex Crazed Reefer Zombies. The film-turned-musical tells the story of Mary Jane, an all-American sweetheart who goes parking with her boyfriend, Billy. When he smokes some atomic reefer and transforms into a sex-crazed zombie, it's up to our hero, Dr S, to save the day!
Dr S and Mary Jane battle their way back into town in a blood-soaked, fight-filled extravaganza of pain, gore, and rock!
After the movie by Film Classics had screened at film festivals across the nation and even in Leeds, England, the Overtime Theater showed it last winter to a packed house.
The idea was then formed to turn it into a live stage musical guaranteed to rock the socks off the audience. Doctor S Battles the Sex Crazed Reefer Zombies: The Movie: The Musical will take the story to even more outlandish heights with the script and lyrics by the original team of director Bryan Ortiz and writers Evan Boston, James Hartz,
and Bryan Ortiz. Musicals will never be the same after the hot buttered awesome that is Dr S !!

Where Back
The festival is like a candy store and I am a fat kid. I went into a film binge and it was worth every moment. People from around the world walked the building. There where films playing all day every moment. I myself caught one Cannes festival and two market screening films...oh yeah the Cannes film market was going on at the same time. Its like a flee market with unsold films. It was cool to find the distributors of some of my favorite films.
The screening of Four Minutes Till the End was fast and amazing. I sat down and my head was spinning with excitement as the lights dimmed.
Before I knew it the screening was over. After that I meet some new friends who took part in the 48 hours but who I had never meet. Most of my time was spent hanging out with John Jackson of Aidin 5. Cool cat. Good times.
The cherry on top....we where in France on the Riviera...not to shabby from a kid from Brownsville and a small time filmmaker in San Antonio.
Sadly to say the day I left they where screening both Inglorious Bastards and Drag Me to Hell...DAMN YOU TIME!! That's ok because one day i will run into one of my heroes Sam Raimi. Well I will participating in this years 48 Hour and I would love the chance to go back again know that I know how to work the festival.
Till next time ladies and gentlemen...I hope to see you soon.

MIAMI OR BUST!!
MIAMI OR BUST!!Welcome dear readers...
A few weeks ago myself (pictured on the left) and my producer Michael Druck attended this years NATIONAL 48 HOUR FILM CHALLENGE FILMAPALOOZA and MIAMI INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL.
Last year FILM CLASSICS PRODUCTIONS participated in the 2008 NATIONAL 48 HOUR FILM CHALLENGE in the great city of San Antonio Texas. (Gotta love Texas) We are proud to say we were the city winners with our short "Four Minutes Till the End".
Needless to say the experience was fun, as it was intense. We had a great cast and crew that pushed us over the top and all the way to Miami. (For more info you can check out our official page) The experience was also painful as I injured my back while filming. Nonetheless we pushed forward and won. There were many great films from around San Antonio and we were honored to represent our city in Miami. If you have never done the 48 Hour you have no idea what your missing...seriously you don't because you have never gotten off your lazy ass and done one...GO DO IT I COMMAND YOU!!....
The finals are held in sunny Miami. The whole event from beginning to end was absolutely amazing and so much fun. While out there we met some amazing teams for all over the United States and from far off countries, France and Australia to name a few. We spent the next two days there watching all the city winners and their short films. I have never seen such great work. I quickly learned that if you wanna play in this game you had better be on top. There is no room for half-ass.
These are our friends from Washington DC.
Please visit there website and check out there amazing work: www.sprezzaturamedia.com
To view all the films from this year check out www.48.tv (please check them out...these filmmakers are absolute super cool)
After a few days of some Miami beach and some MIAMI PARTYING (entourage style "hug it out bitch") we came home with new friends and our city trophy...
I do have to say that the entire 48 Hour Experience is worth every moment. I encourage any one out there interested at all to get some friends, a camera, some money, and join the contest. Its coming real soon to a city near you.
Keep your eye sockets open for an entire video blog about our trip coming soon.
Well, till next time reader. Be happy.
