Even in Death was the second film I directed, and the first and only time that I had a co-director: the great Eddy Kovacs. We were both film buffs, and especially horror film buffs, so it was natural that we decided to make a fun horror comedy. We made a list of all the crazy special effects and camera tricks we could do, and then we wrote a script around those.
A ghost posesses anything and everything in an effort to kill a group of friends, and use one of the girls for his own sinister purposes. We had fun doing this one, but there were problems. The cast and script kept changing daily. We had no schedule, we had no method. It was madness. Still, we finished, and the final result has some great camera tricks, and stars both your’s truly, AND the great(?) LCD.

PURE CRAZINESS! I wish I was there for this one. I love the special effects. I love the opening scene and Pat’s brother Todd wrote the most amazing and perfect soundtrack for the picture. I love the flying dishes!

This was another one that I helped out with, and another one I was cut from- actually I was replaced in this one. That’s okay, I like working behind the scenes anyway… This one was also a lot of fun and I love the special effects, I think they’re all amazing. I’d recommend this one as well, this one is a lot of fun to watch.
