Hey guys, I know I previously made this announcement months ago, but I had to take everything down off social media until I was given the okay to announce things publicly...

My 2nd produced feature film (it only took 5 fucking years after the first one), an awesome indie crime-thriller/mystery called "Rage" hits VOD on February 23rd. Gravitas Ventures bought the film and will be distributing it worldwide. So it should be available pretty much everywhere...

Though, if you're in Australia, the rights were retained for that territory by the filmmakers, who are Australian. The good news, however, is that they'll be making the film available to rent on Vimeo On Demand (only in Australia), though it will only be for a limited time.

You can check out the announcement here:

https://www.if.com.au/indie-th.....JplORqg481NT3yUIbOK4

"Rage" is part mystery, part police procedural, part home-invasion thriller, part marriage drama.

The story follows a violent home invasion that leaves a mild-mannered husband Noah (Matt Theo) in a coma and his wife Madeline (Hayley Beveridge) deeply traumatized. As Noah and his nearly-despondent wife, Madeline, try to move on with their lives, Madeline spots the attacker, who's still on the loose, opening up a twisted tale of brutal revenge. Along the way, a scarred and seasoned Detective John Bennett (martial arts legend, Richard Norton) fights his own inner demons whilst trying to solve the crime.

Deadline and Variety will be launching our new trailer along with a press release announcement next week, so I'll be posting that here when the time comes.

Can't wait for you guys to see it!

-- Michael

Thanks, Libby!

It feels good, especially because of how long these indie films take to make and then get released. I'm hoping to get some really high quality indies under my belt, add to my CV, but I really want to take the next step to bigger movies soon, hopefully. Got another low budget indie feature scheduled to shoot January 2022 (due to Covid - we already have locations locked and are now doing casting calls) and a found-footage horror feature scheduled for some time this year, only finished a 1st draft though. But they are low budget and I really want to take it up a few levels soon. Had some minor success with my 1st film, getting a theater release, Netflix, etc, so this is kinda/sorta familiar ground. This time around though, I'm gonna try and enjoy it a little more. My expectations are a little more realistic now than they were then.

That being said, "Rage" is really well made and well acted and I'm extremely proud of it.

New trailer dropping next week!

Thanks, Warren! It will actually be available to rent on Vimeo On Demand in Oz on February 23rd, same day as it's North American release. But it will only be available for a limited time. They're still shopping for Aussie distribution.

Awesome dude. Will watch.

Any idea which VOD service in Australia? Sory if someone already asked,

PS - Do you have particularly close links with the Aus film industry or something? Both your featres have ended up here and Astralia makes like less than ten movies a year (all of them have at least one Secret Life of Us cast member in them too).

PPS - I can't remember if I already told you this, but I once found someone streaming Suicide Theory illegally on YT (I reported it),

Thanks, dude. It will be available to rent on "Vimeo" (not video) On Demand on February 23rd. While the film picked up "worldwide" distribution, the filmmakers retained the rights in Australia. But they're actively seeking Aussie distribution, so it will only be on Vimeo On Demand for a limited time.

I do have close links to the Aussie film industry -- both features were produced there, though completely different camps. My best short film, "The Dead Guy in the Trunk" was also produced there (by different filmmakers). They seem to like my work there, though my next three features will be US productions (finally). I'm also working with the director of "Rage" on another feature script they're keen on filming.

RE: The Suicide Theory. Thanks man, I appreciate that. But there's like hundreds of channels that have the film illegally streaming, some in different languages, etc. I also saw it on illegal streaming sites like Putlocker. No wonder I haven't seen any resids yet lol. But hey, I'm just glad people are watching it at all.

Re: illegal streaming - your director (maybe not you) can issue a DCMA takedown and YouTube will remove it immediately.

Sparking of Vimeo, I'm going to start name-drooping, and say I've met the lead actress in Australian viral short film Curve.

Good horror short, you'd like it.

Pia put me onto Curve. It's so simple yet so terrifying.
I always wondered how she got in that spot of bother   in the first place.
