‘Documentary for the Recently Deceased’ Will Explore the Making of ‘Beetlejuice’
The 30th anniversary of Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice is on the horizon, and fan Fred China is aiming to celebrate with an independent, fan-funded documentary about the making of the film. The documentary will be the first of its kind, and you’ve got the chance to come aboard and help out.
Now funding over on Indiegogo, Documentary for the Recently Deceased is a retrospective documentary about the creation and making of Beetlejuice, set to be packed with never-before-seen images and videos, plus rare deleted scenes and even the alternate ending.
It will also feature interviews with cast & crew, plus a virtual visit to filming locations.
“On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the film’s release, this two-hour independent documentary made by fans for fans will take you to the heart of this cult classic from the 1980s.”
“Documentary for the Recently Deceased will describe all the stages of production from the film’s creation to its release. You will get an exclusive view behind the scenes through interviews with the people who took part in the film, especially the magicians from the SFX department who will share their secret insight on the project.”
The documentary will release in 2018, in time for the 30th anniversary.
After pulling in $28 million at the worldwide box office this month, director (and star) Dev Patel’s critically acclaimed action-thriller Monkey Man is now available to watch at home.
You can rent Monkey Man for $19.99 or digitally purchase the film for $24.99!
Monkey Man is currently 88% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, with Bloody Disgusting’s head critic Meagan Navarro awarding the film 4.5/5 stars in her review out of SXSW back in March.
Meagan raves, “While the violence onscreen is palpable and painful, it’s not just the exquisite fight choreography and thrilling action set pieces that set Monkey Man apart but also its political consciousness, unique narrative structure, and myth-making scale.”
“While Monkey Man pays tribute to all of the action genre’s greats, from the Indonesian action classics to Korean revenge cinema and even a John Wick joke or two, Dev Patel’s cultural spin and unique narrative structure leave behind all influences in the dust for new terrain,” Meagan’s review continues.
She adds, “Monkey Man presents Dev Patel as a new action hero, a tenacious underdog with a penetrating stare who bites, bludgeons, and stabs his way through bodies to gloriously bloody excess. More excitingly, the film introduces Patel as a strong visionary right out of the gate.”
Inspired by the legend of Hanuman, Monkey Man stars Patel as Kid, an anonymous young man who ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. After years of suppressed rage, Kid discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.
Monkey Man is produced by Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions.
