A Crotch Shot and Letter from Tim Sullivan – God Love Him!
by Marc Patterson
Every time I think we get close to being a distinguished news outlet for the latest in horror I get a crotch shoved in my face and it reminds me of one thing… never take this genre too seriously. Today I got a hold of a sexy, yet disturbing, still from the upcoming 2001 Maniacs Field of Screams sequel from Tim Sullivan. Additionally Tim circulated a letter to the community explaining why he pulled his film from the AFM lineup this year. So I’m going to kill two birds with one stone and give both to you right here, right now.
First the letter from Tim:
As many of you know, this weekend was the scheduled screening of a temp version of 2001 MANIACS: FIELD OF SCREAMS for buyers at the AFM market. After much consideration, the producers and I all made what I believe was the very wise decision to postpone the screenings till the film was 100% complete.
As wonderful as it looks, there is still a lot of sound work to be done; the current mix, score and ADR is still only temp. It’s all about the “lasting first impression”, and although you can tell buyers and distributors that the sound mix is “temporary”, they still inevitably will judge you by what they are watching on the screen. Add the additional obstacle of the language barrier with the Foreign buyers, and we ultimately are just not putting our best foot forward…. which I refuse to do, having come this far and having all worked so hard bringing our very best A game to this very mad tea party.
We continue to work round the clock with my composer and sound designer Patrick Copeland on the scoring and sound mix- and we anticipate a finished film by the holidays.

Shock and Roll!
Tim Sullivan
PS—Let’s all wish our good Mayor, Bill Moseley a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY this coming Wednesday, November 11th!
And now that sexy shot from the crotchel region… (and yes, that’s a table saw about to head straight to the vagine of actress Alana Curry, or as you’ll know her here – Bristol Bush.)
