Release date....


Hey, David I was wondering when the movie is going to be released cause
I am planning on having a party for it. Its more of a party to shut
peoples mouths who said that I am lying about having a part in making
it. I know its childish but hey I am happy to have been apart of this
movie and I don't like people calling me a lier.

Posted by David Talbot:

March is the earliest it will be completed, released is unfortunately another matter. Once completed, we'll have to get screeners out to the distributers that requested them and then go about attempting to market screeners to the distributors that haven't requested them yet.

Wow, this guy is a writer???? I guess the professional spelling is "lier" then....

I would definitely also hate to be called a "lier", especially since it's not even a real word....

reply

Since my original post was deleted, I'll have to repost. David Talbot will have the sole writing credit on this movie. Have your party, if you want, it won't do a thing to legitimise whether or not you actually worked on the movie.

reply

It won't be completely done editing/scored/etc until the March timeframe. Release will be some point after that depending on when a deal can be worked out.

reply

I know David was the sole writer for the movie. I am not saying that he wasn't. I am just saying that I was happy to be able to be a part of the movie and can't wait to see it. I just wish I could have made it down there to be a zombie extra. And as for the guy being as ass about me miss-spelling a word, stfu. Even the best writers in the world make mistakes.

reply

You stated in another thread that you helped him write Risen. So which is it? Also, you started this thread by saying you wanted to have a party to shut other's mouths. The posters above, and I guess you could say say me too, are wondering what was exactly your role in Risen, and how would having a party when Risen gets released convince anyone that you worked on it in any capacity. You WON'T have any credit in the movie!

reply

Just ask David if you do not believe me. My name is on the front page of the script so you might wanna just shut your mouth since you do not know anything. Me and 2 other people helped David with the script but David wrote all of it but added the parts that we helped flush out. I am mentioned in the credits, BTW.

reply

How do you know for sure when the movie is not even done being edited?

reply

I know cause David is a good guy and has kept his word thus far. Scooter, Jamie, and I are all on the title page of the script and will be mentioned in the credits. Daivd is a good guy and I know he will do what he said cause he has given me credit thus far.

reply

Wow man, take it easy. How many times do you have to say David is a good guy in one paragraph. It sounds so desperate! How old are you man? Like 15??!!!

reply

Indeed your name will be in the credits. Mr. Freeze (his real name, I know, sounds like a superhero) contributed some concepts. Jamie contributed hundreds of hours of iterating and arguging over the finer script details.

Some clairification though, Freeze/Matthews/Radcliffe will be credited as contributors. WGA rules only allow one writing credit per script unless it was an excact 50/50 split of actual writing then they allow dual credits. It's unheard of for WGA to accept more than a 50/50 split to recieve writing credit but they do allow for the crediting of contributors.

I'd recommend ignoring the flamer, it's a waste of your time to argue with him.

reply

congratulations, you'll be credited as a contributor. On a movie that may get distribution on ebay...impressive.

reply

and congratulations to you. You've managed to make a ton of people laugh at how pathetic and desperate you are for attention. I've been told about your very desperate attempt to discredit Risen and how you pretend to be other people by changing your screen name yet type the exact same things in almost the exact same way. You must be jealous of the makers of the film because of your own sucky acting ability. Did you try out for a role and not get a callback? It will never work. The attention you keep giving it just makes more people talk about it. Its funny how you dont understand that. keep going, give them the publicity they need. In case you are wondering who I am, I am the Director, producer, writer, caterer, cinematographer and distributer of Risen.

reply

The very fact that you list so many credentials for the movie doesn't say much for Risen. and this film is getting a lot of chatter on the net, but not the kind I'd want for MY movie. What exactly are people supposed to be jealous of? Blowing the guys over on allthingszombie.com won't help. That's not the only website on the net!

(Still with the multi person/one person theme.....yeah, good one.)

reply

Ok, I'm in no way participating in the flame thread, but just to clairify, whomever CrownRoyalQueen is, she is most definately not the producer/writer/director etc for Risen.

I am the writer/producer (david-1342 on IMDB and grimsaado pretty much on any other board) of Risen.
The Director (Damon Crump) doesn't participate in any web forums whatsoever.
The DP (John Franklin) doesn't participate in any web forums whatsoever, in fact he's in Africa right now shooting a documentry for the Discovery channel and has no internet access at all.

Whomever CrownRoyalQueen is, she does not posess any of the titles mentioned in her post.

reply

Blowing the guys over on allthingszombie.com won't help. That's not the only website on the net!

Ha! So that's why the Mods at ATZ are so hard-on for anyone that thinks Risen looks like crap! This movie certainly seems to have a lot of writers, since that's the third person I've seen on IMDB claim the credit...

reply

David Talbot, are you still going try and think it's not your own people who are pulling the pranks and keeping the flames fanned, when it's obvious by the post above? (crownRoyaleperson, blah, blah, blah..) Don't you know it's LDG?!!!

reply

Jeez, I cant believe I have to spell this out for you guys.
I had never even heard of Risen until about a month ago. I looked here and the Risen website for info and learned of the guy that poses as all the different people and keeps saying the same things to "flame" or whatever, the movie. He pretends to be other people but accuses those who call him on it of being zombie-nation people in disguise. Its funny he always says that everyone who defends the movie worked on it. I was being sarcastic saying I was the Director, Caterer, etc. because I figured he would say I worked on the movie. Honestly I know crap about Risen except I will be seeing it and some people (or one person) is very very sad, lonely, juvenile and SO desperate for attention. People like that end up dead from stupidity. And thats not a bad thing :)

BTW..who is LDG?

reply

yeah, you're absolutely right. "we" are really "I", and none of the Risen crew has ever posted here or anywhere else under a different name shilling and/or flaming, right? Even when they admit to it, you just know for a fact from here and at the risen-nation, that what "they" say is the true identity of several different posters. WOW, a regular Sherlock Holmes, that one, LOL!

Why would I want to join the ZN to sort out grievances when all we want is for "cinnamon girl" to leave ATZ? In fact, our forum was so much better w/o her presence. Not only are we anti risen, going back months now, but we'd like for not just LDG, but the rest of the crew to stay over at the risen-nation. You guys set yourselves up for all of this back when you started crap with the raptorman forum, not realizing that collectively, we are also members of many other zombie forums. None of us will allow promotion of your movie, and have been using separate names/accounts to flame and cause havoc. Even if those names get banned, we are still there under our original accounts. Don't give a damn about IP tracing either, cause those are changed too. At any rate, once you guys stay on your own forum, and stop shilling the movie on our forums, maybe the flaming will stop.

It's not a matter of her saying anything that could get her banned, she hasn't done anything wrong on ATZ, it's what she said about a respected member of several of our forums, on your forum that was completely uncalled for. As far as your version of the events that took place on raptorman's, your story is really way off the mark. When the Risen movie was initially brought up, (on raptorman.us), there wasn't much info out there regarding the movie, just a brief synopsis of the storyline. A couple of people stated that the story sounded a little too similar to Briane Keene's The Rising. Being that people from that forum obviously didn't work on the movie, or had even heard about it, it was a fair assumption. However, right off the bat members from your forum registered over there, and started attacking, instead of trying to explain the difference between the two. Insults were NOT traded, until your members started the flaming. In fact, we tried over and over to get someone to state what the movie was really about, and explain the differences. Wolfghost stands out as the most professional of the bunch, she at least kept her cool, and took the time to talk about the movie, and never stooped to the level that Dave Winfrey did. He attacked on a personal level, name calling, flaming, and just being an all out ass. Much later he attempted to make nice, but it was too late. Instead of handling it the right way, he chose to make his enemies, which was a mistake because there are a few guys connected in the business that have it out for him. He's already been caught in a few lies of his own. (Like the one about him working on Poultrygeist, he got busted on that.) Back to LDG, she never registered on Rap's, but chose to do her attacking on your "home" turf. She needs to learn to keep her fat f---ing mouth shut. And her legs too, for that matter. We've seen the pics she sent out attempting to cyber. Remember that whole arguement with Invalid_User? Did people think there wasn't at least a grain of truth to that whole bit? There's a couple more things, but for now, we'll let you chew on that info for a little while.

OK..I Dave Winfrey, just corrected this retard on his ridiculous claims on the raptorman forums because his lies that RISEN was filmed with a camcorder or something. I really dont remember all of what was said because I have a life and have gotten over it and mostly forgotten about it. I'm honestly sitting here laughing at how sad this guy is. i shouldnt play his little game but he lies about everything he says. I passed on that joke of a film poultrygeist because it was just that.. a joke. It was a good experience for 18 year olds that no nothing about film-making but not for me. i have nothing but friends and new connections in the industry and I am constantly busy working on projects. Who are all these "enemies" you claim I have. you know more about my life then I do. i have never ever been "called out" or whatever because I havent lied about a thing. this dork trys to bury me at every turn because I embarassed him like 8 months ago and it must have been pretty embarassing to him because he still holds some sort of grudge like i murdered his dog or something.
i just wish I could meet him in person. i will pay for the plane ticket and his hospital bill if he just had the balls to meet me. I would do anything in the world for that opportunity but of course he will always hide behind the safety of the internet and continue to lie and start trouble with everyone associated with ZN. heres the part where he claims I'm lying and says i raped a baby or someting while injecting heroine and lying about movies i havent made.

reply

You never "corrected" anything over at Rap's, you started the whole flame war. I never said anything about it looking like it was filmed on a camcorder. And of course you conveniently don't remember anything you said, since it involved calling people homo, and making sexual remarks, instead of trying to "correct" other's misconceptions about the movie. You go around and try to say how you've been nothing but nice to everyone, but you've done nothing but act like an ass as far as any of us can see. And oh yeah, Poultrygeist was a joke? That's why up until the day you were called out on that, you were bragging about how great it was to be working for them? BRAGGING. (BTW, it's "know" nothing, not "no" nothing, you must be a no nothing!) A Troma film is by far the only credible work you've done so far. (or did you?) The couple of projects you've worked on so far have amounted to really nothing. Name what you've done so far, if you've been so busy. Or is it ever since you were busted on the Poultrygeist thing, you are afraid of getting caught out there again? Some of us do have IMDb pro, and have connections in the biz, it would be so easy to check it out if it were true. Nobody has tried to bury you, you do a good enough job for yourself. You brought it up, why don't you tell everyone the names of all these movies you've worked on, and what type of work you did? I wasn't the one who called you a liar back then, but I've seen your posts for myself, why don't you prove us wrong? As far as paying plane fare to beat me up tough guy, why don't you worry about paying your rent, or is that Dijais' job?

reply

whats wrong precious? Are you so afraid to take me up on my offer? Are you that afraid? You will always hide behind the safety of the internet. Always remaining anonymous because of the coward you will always be. It amazes me how afraid you are. BTW, I never started the flame war or whatever at your super awesome "raptorman" site...everyone knows it was you. I only responded to what you started and you got embarassed. Not only did you start it but you keep it going..how many months has it been now? You will probably never know how many people have laughed at your pathetic situation.

In regards to my career in film-making. I guess its time for the truth to come out. You're right man. I have never worked on anything. I didnt actually work on RISEN. I have never even worked on a film before in my life ever. Your "IMDB-PRO" super powers were far too much for me to handle. What was i thinking trying to pull one over on you? I'm sorry. Right after I type this I will promptly kill myself because I could never live up to your expectations.

Just remember..you have singled me out for months and months all because of a stupid argument at a site I barely even remember. We BOTH said some dumb stuff but only one of us was man enough to try to end it and be friends..several times. The fact that you keep it going and continue these lies and insults shows how sadly, morbidly pathetic your life must be. i really, really feel deeply sorry for you man.

feel free to say whatever you feel because I will not be reading it because I have blocked you to prevent myself from wanting to respond. Just remember, I'm not hard too find and I will do anything for the opportunity to meet my biggest fan. You claim to know all about me and I am dying to know you. Have fun hiding.

Hugs and Kisses

Once again, he responds with his nonsense about resorting to violence and other bull...I gave him the opportunity to prove that he has actually been working on any ligitimate film projects, and in turn, he talks trash. BTW, I'm not from Raptorman.us, I'm from allthingszombie.com. Get it straight! He and his friends are still stuck on us all being the same person, since they just can't get it through their thick skulls that perhaps they've pissed off more than one person?!! I never posted anything over at Rap's! But a few of my friends were involved, unjustly so, since DW decided to start crap over there. As far as him trying to end it and be friends, I don't think so, especially when a few of us are members at ZN too and remember the trash talking that continued over there. Once again, I challenge Mr. Winfrey to PROVE just one example of him actually working on a film! I guess when you're under 30 yrs old, and are balding and getting fat, you resort to violence because you have something to prove, why don't you go and post some more about wrestling over on joblo.com!!! Or brag some more about your film making on undeadfilms, what a loser!

I dont know why my post was deleted, all I posted was that I agreed that it would be unfair to lump all ZN members in with the risen people. I also pointed out that I saw the posts that were made on ZN by LDG about zombie diva from raptorman's site, and the comments that were made about surt. mattfolwell says we should all take it up with the risen people over on the nation, but I remember when surt wanted to register over there, his account wasn't activated. Any attempt at hashing out the problems ended up going to flames by the ZN members, so that's why they are being lumped together, although I agree that most of the ZN are cool, and weren't involved. I also saw the post where dave winfrey was busted for lying about his work in films. That post was made at the same time he was bragging about working on poultrygiest on another forum. Immediately after, he started to change his tune, and back peddling. He was given the chance to post proof of him working on a legitimate film project, and he chose to respond in flaming, and threats. Yeah, I'd say he has a lot of credibility.

reply

That's an interesting thing to hear, since I've tried twice to register at ZN and neither time received an e-mail to say my account had been activated. Why would that be, if in fact the invitation to join is truly open to everyone?

reply

when surt, who was the main object of Dave Winfreys attacks, tried to join over on the nation, not only was his account not activated, but mattfolwell started a thread about "look who's joining the zombie-nation", and in that thread was asking other members if they thought it was a good idea to activate the account! Are you going to deny doing that, Matt?

reply

[deleted]

I'll apologise, as I have my matt's confused, it was zombiematt, the admin. on zombie nation. It does get confusing. Either way, It was unfairly put on us as the ones who started the flamewars, as it is clear to anyone if they went to the raptorman site and read the whole thread. It's clearly Dave Winfrey who started the whole thing up with his attacks on surt. (I can't post the name he registered under on here, as it will cause my post to get deleted) It was "surteats...." Also, an apology is in order from LDG, for the nasty comments she made about zombie diva, especially when she never engaged in the flame war to begin with. Zombie diva has in fact posted a retraction of any comments that she made that may have been taken out of context. She has since stated on many forums that she would be willing to promote the movie if it turns out to be any good. I stand by what I said about the zombie nation, and that's the majority of members over there are pretty cool, but the Risen people have done nothing but try to cram the movie down everyones throat, we are tired of the shilling and the flaming, (on our forums), and we are also tired of the bragging and pretentiousness of the crew who try to compare Risen to Romero's work, it's not even close to the same league. These members have made a laughingstock of the zombie nation, and anyone from the nation should be embarrassed of these two jerks. (LivingDeadGirl and SixStrangSmoker)

reply

I, too, would like to actually see this movie for once. My daughter and I were extras in the filming but have since moved to another state. I've all but given up on this actually making it to DVD. Its out in Europe. Its out in Japan. WHY NOT HERE WHERE IT WAS MADE for crying out loud?!?!
