"A low-budget masterpiece" - Theron Neel, ScreamTV.net What if Charles Manson had a bastard son who grew up to follow in daddy's footsteps - only he chose to attack a small town that holds secrets of its own? Now you can read the original screenplay for GIMME SKELTER and see how it all came together in the micro-budget cult horror flick that Axel Howerton of eyecrave.net called "A fine example of how imaginative a genre film can be " Written by Scott S. Phillips, screenwriter of the Martial Arts classic DRIVE (1997) and several episodes of the CW Network TV series KAMEN RIDER DRAGON KNIGHT, and author of the novels PETE, DRINKER OF BLOOD, FRIDAY THE 13TH: CHURCH OF THE DIVINE PSYCHOPATH, and the short story collection TALES OF MISERY AND IMAGINATION. Includes interviews with writer/director Phillips and star Gunnar Hansen ("Leatherface" in the original TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE) conducted by Axel Howerton.
"The writing is witty and daring - this is the movie every zombie geek aspires to make..." - EyeCraveDVD.com Wandering the zombie wasteland, Matool lives by his animal instinct - not to mention his hammer and giant nails. But when he's kidnapped by a mysterious couple, he must rely on an entirely different weapon to survive... Read the original shooting script for THE STINK OF FLESH and see how a low-budget film translates from page to screen in the cult movie Lawrence Raffel of MonstersAtPlay.com called "A fantastic entry in the zombie sub-genre. Great characters, talented filmmaking, an inventive storyline... Definitely recommended and in my humble opinion, a far better film than 28 Days Later." Written by Scott S. Phillips, screenwriter of the Martial Arts classic DRIVE (1997) and several episodes of the CW Network TV series KAMEN RIDER DRAGON KNIGHT, and author of the novels PETE, DRINKER OF BLOOD, FRIDAY THE 13th: CHURCH OF THE DIVINE PSYCHOPATH, and SQUIRREL EYES. Also includes an appreciation of the movie by Cody Hamman of LifeBetweenFrames.com.
SQUIRREL EYES is the story of Alvin Bandy, lifelong movie junkie and would-be filmmaker, who finds himself alone in Hollywood after his girlfriend Alison sends him packing in favor of another man. With his career - if you can call it that, when it consists of one incredibly bad movie he wrote - on the rocks, Alvin hatches a drunken plan to course-correct his screwed-up life: he travels to his hometown of Albuquerque, New Mexico to seek out his first girlfriend, Kelli, and do what he never did before: have sex with her. Kelli, however, won't be had so easily, and lays down a challenge to Alvin that could either be his undoing or his salvation... Funny, dark, raunchy and sentimental, Squirrel Eyes is a novel about the strength of dreams, the depths of lust, the power of guilt and above all, the glory of cinema and the hold it has on us all. "If you somehow cloned the perfect science bastard love-child of Cameron Crowe, J.D. Salinger and The Kinks, it couldn't build a better story of underdog charm than Squirrel Eyes. Scott S. Phillips creates fascinating and endearing characters, then drops them in the hot zone of their own mangled lives, with nothing but their wits and pop culture to protect themselves." - Axel Howerton, editor, Dark Moon Digest, author of Hot Sinatra "Squirrel Eyes is a crazy journey through Scott S. Phillips' twisted, pop culture cluttered mind. He touches on universal emotions in this insightful, often laugh-out-loud journey through Alvin Bandy's - and the reader's - most denied memories of love lost." - Robert E. Vardeman, author of Burn the Sky "The F@%ker can write " - Elwood Reid, author of D.B. and If I Don't Six "With his goofball characters, ear for quirky dialogue, and always-colorful turns of phrase, Scott S. Phillips is like a modern beat writer - tempered with postmodern sensibilities and a generous dash of observational comedy... But that's just an erudite, flashy way of saying that no one makes me laugh louder or harder than Scott S. Phillips." - Brian Jay Jones, author of Washington Irving "Scott's narrative blasts and rattles down the road, chasing rabbits and stray chickens out of its path, while his dialogue sprays the countryside like full-automatic fire." - Victor Milan, author of The Wild Cards Series and CLD: Collective Landing Detachment "Triangulate funny, creepy and melancholy, and you'll find Scott S. Phillips, waiting for a bus." - Nathan Long, author of The Blackhearts Series
