Contrary to popular myth the Old Ones cannot be summoned by a solitary soul or by simply reciting a passage from a damned tome written in a dead language. It takes a generous contribution of time and talent on the part of many industry professionals to really bring the eons-old badasses to life. So, as word gets around about Casting Call of Cthulhu, in the coming weeks we will be profiling the people who helped make the nightmare a reality starting with our editor Geoff Ashenhurst. We urge you to follow the link and check out Geoff’s reel. You are probably more familiar with his work than you know. Ashenhurst has edited a slew of commercial spots and several long form pieces. He is currently cutting the Beyoncé documentary – Necronomicon Got Me Goin’ So Crazy Right Now! But seriously, he really is working on the Beyoncé doc.

We are displeased to announce that Casting Call of Cthulhu will have its world theatre debut at the RioFan fantastic film festival to be held at the end of April, beginning of May in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. If you find yourself in the area we urge you to attend the screening and laugh with terror. But be warned, once the film is seen it cannot be unseen.

Is this how it ends? After months of toil, blood, sweat, and sacrifice Casting Call of Cthulhu is finished and ready for human consumption. In the bowels of Alter Ego we tracked the last super, synced the last sound, and restriped. My God, what have we done!
