Anything Horror's Best Horror Shorts of 2014

Honored and humbled as BERENICE gets more press today.  Scott Shoyer at Anything Horror includes it on his Best Horror Shorts of 2014.  "BERENICE is a modern update on the classic Edgar Allan Poe short story about death and obsession. In all his short films Kipp has the ability to capture the beauty within the horrifying and BERENICE is no exception. BERENICE is a beautifully shot (by Kenneth Kotowski) and acted short film -- one you won’t soon forget."  http://anythinghorror.com/2014/12/30/anything-horror-scotts-best-horror-shorts-of-2014/

Reel Guy Reviews on BERENICE

Real Guy Reviews gives an unsentimental and unpretentious rave review of BERENICE. "A modern telling of an Edgar Allen Poe classic...the acting was amazing and the pacing of the story was fantastic. Jeremiah has the ability to have you put aside your critics cap and do what he intends for us all to do, enjoy the story. All in all, this is a wonderful, complete, polished piece of fiction from a name that you will come to look forward to seeing."

Terror Troop Podcast Interview

I enjoyed a lively chat with Erik from Terror Troop Podcast about PAINKILLER (his favorite), THE MINIONS and BERENICE. http://terrortroop.com/terror-troop-147-indie-film-showcase/

Thank You

Some kind words about DROOL from one of my heroes. "I've never seen anything like it, never had those feelings provoked in me before! Thanks so much for this gorgeous work!" - iconic Canadian film director Guy Maddin ("The Saddest Music in the World", "Twilight of the Ice Nymphs")

From Dusk Til Con Interview

Really enjoyed doing this interview with Tracy Crockett for From Dusk Til Con. He includes photos of me from 10 years ago, which is fitting because we talk a bit about my childhood impulses to make films. I also get to mention how I'm "hoping to work with Zoë Daelman Chlanda again, who was the lead in a body horror short I directed a few years ago called CONTACT. She projects strength, intelligence, vulnerability and a deeply haunted quality."

"The contribution of the actors is one of the more satisfying parts of making a movie. Underneath Lukas Hassel's charming leading man persona is an ability to tap into a very dark, uncomfortable place. He brought significant choices to the role. He also engendered trust and safety with his co-stars before delving into an evil place with them on-camera. It’s a great gift working with him, and he’s sensitive to the needs of the movie and the scene." 

Great Chat About Recent Film Work at The Slaughtered Bird

"Lukas, who is also a talented writer and director in his own right, was involved in the process from the very first draft and invested deeply into the role. I greatly enjoy collaborating with him. He’s fearless and uncompromising, open to discovery, and we trust each other’s process completely. That’s the kind of company I like to keep." - from interview with The Slaughtered Bird

Celluloid Terror covers THE MINIONS and PAINKILLER

"THE MINIONS is a subtle and largely subdued creeper...haunting and beautifully done." 

"PAINKILLER takes a page out of the David Cronenberg book of body horror. There's a good bit of blood and gore packed into the 15 minute runtime and even a good look at the nasty little organism. The acting is strong from top to bottom and the story is one that really hits home in a time where cancer is running rampant and relatively so little progress has been made in fighting it."
