Dread Central Presents: Now That You're Dead!
June 26th, 2008
We're pleased to announce that Dread Central is home to the online premiere of one of our favorite indie filmmakers' new short, "Now That You're Dead!" Writer/director Patrick Rea was kind enough to provide DC with access to his latest venture, which he describes as "a dark-humored battle between a cheating husband, a mistress, and a murderous wife with a supernatural twist."
"Now That You're Dead" is a SenoReality / Free State Studios production that was shot in the Lawrence, Kansas, and Kansas City, Missouri, area. The cast includes Jennifer Plas, who also appeared in Rea's debut feature length film, The Empty Acre (review), Meagan Flynn, and Aaron Laue.
Currently Rea is working on getting the balance of funding together for his sophomore feature, Nailbiter, and promises more news on that front shortly. In the meantime dig on "Now That You're Dead," and keep it here for updates.

Prett neat. It's got a Tales from the Crypt vibe, and there's absoultly nothing wrong with that.

I really liked it too -- and didn't see the twist coming at all. Could be Rea's best yet.

Me, too. No reason it should take that long to load, it's a Flash file for God's sake.

I don't know, Buz. It works fine for me.

Cool. I let the whole thing load, which took 30 minutes, then I went to play it and it told me the video was now unavailable.
Awesome.
