Ed Wheeler joins me on the DEMON RESURRECTION DVD audio commentary

I've always found it difficult to record audio commentary tracks by myself, so I was fortunate to be able to persuade my friend and DEMON RESURRECTION co-producer, Ed Wheeler, to join me in creating the track for the original DVD release of DEMON RESURRECTION.

In addition to his brief appearance as an archaeologist at the beginning of the film, Ed was a key member of the DEMON RESURRECTION production crew, joining Frank and me months before the shoot to assist in casting, location scouting and the preparation of props and costumes. In addition, Ed and Laurie Miller (our film's Dr. Kate), were kept busy planning out the film's fairly elaborate stunts, a number of which they performed themselves.

So I think Frank would agree with me when I say that DEMON RESURRECTION wouldn't be the film it is without Ed's enormous contribution. And given the extent of his participation, he was particularly well-suited to join me in this discussion of the film and its production...

By the way, in addition to Ed Wheeler's many other skills and abilities, he's also a talented sculptor and his excellent work can be seen on his recently launched website:

Unused Opening Crawl for DEMON RESURRECTION

As I was completing the editing of DEMON RESURRECTION and the film began to take on its final shape, I briefly considered the inclusion of this opening crawl.

My thinking was that such an introduction would not only be in keeping with the film's retro feel, but would help provide additional background information about the "witches" whose remains are such an important part of the story. It would also offer a possible explanation as to why those witches, once reanimated, display such a preference for the evisceration of their victims, rather than the eating of them, which is the custom of most movie zombies.

In the end though, in the interest of keeping the film's running time down as much as possible, I decided against using it, and so this crawl never got chance to crawl. Until now...
