G.H.O.S.T. (2011) Haunts Trailer Park Tuesday!
G.H.O.S.T. (2011) coming soon to DVD.
This week on Trailer Park Tuesday, we’re going to do something out of character – we’re going to talk about ourselves. I know! Crazy, right?
It’s been a long hard road from pre-production in 2009 to the conclusion of post-production at the end of 2011 for G.H.O.S.T. (2011). G.H.O.S.T. (2011) started as an idea for an original television pilot and along the way grew and morphed into a full length feature. It was a labor of love from beginning to end and was only made possible by the contributions of so many talented individuals from North Carolina and specifically the Charlotte area.
Work is still ongoing on the final score for G.H.O.S.T. but after that it’s but a few steps away from the DVD release. Beyond that we do have some cool things planned for the future so stay tuned for an official announcement soon. MVP would like to send out a round of thanks to everyone involved in the making of G.H.O.S.T. (2011).
Without all of you, it wouldn’t have been possible. So without further ado – check out the trailer for the supernatural thriller G.H.O.S.T. (2011) starring Kathy Butler Sandvoss, Matthew Ewald, Steven D. Tucker, Clint Jones, Dave Tunik, Jason Wheeley, Jack Stecher, Kayli Tolleson and more local talent than you can shake a EPK monitor at! Featuring fashion designs by Luis Machicao and special make-up FX by Todd A. Britt, you won’t believe your eyes.

Streeborama Goes to The Outer Limits for a VHS Unboxing!

There’s a lot of activity going on behind the scenes on the Mutantville Mothership this week. I originally thought to do another Streebo v-log for Streeborama today because I have a lot of things I want to get off my chest about indie filmmaking and horror fandom in general. I was tied up doing readings last night for an upcoming project at MVP so I didn’t have time to shoot my incindiary v-log yet.
Instead, I am going to share a gentler, kinder video of my Outer Limits unboxing. Back at Halloween I scored a complete set of the original Outer Limits television show on VHS. I shot the special unboxing to share the sights and sounds of it all with you.
I’ll work on my crazy v-log for next week – but this week you can enjoy a nice gentle unboxing. Cheers to ya.

The MVP Guide To The Galaxy, The Walking Dead and The Immortals Rule on Mutantville Mondays!
AZ is down with MVP. Absolute Zero circa 2011.
It’s time for another Monday morning Mutantville Player roll call! Streebo! Geo! Brento! Toddo! No wait that’s not right. I think he’s Mega-Todd or Dr.Savini or something like that but it breaks the name-plus-o convention that we have going. Anyway – we’re all here and accounted for after another long hard weekend making the best in genre entertainment that the Planet Earth has to offer.
When I hold up my Majic Spyglass I can see all the Mutants sitting at home with us. I see Kathy and Catherine. Jason and Dave. There’s Super-K and Angela. Oh – I see Kayli and Meghan and Janice and Ruff. Hey – there’s Kat and Matthew and I even see you! Looks like we’re all accounted for.
Now let’s strap in and put our bits in place because the Mutantville Mothership is about to blast off. We’re headed for the five oblong corners of the Internet and there’s no coming back. Since it’s easy to get lost along the way – here’s your Mutantville Signal Watch with built in Quantum Compass to help you no matter which plane of existence that you find yourself currently residing. Here. We. GO!!!

Streeborama and Other Random Acts of Mutantville.
Welcome back to another edition of Streeborama here on Mutantville.com. I’m still drowning in an endless stream of editing in a race to get the final cut of G.H.O.S.T. locked in so the visual FX and score can be completed – so I had to shoot another v-log to serve as my blog entry. I shot that so I wouldn’t have to type too much – so why don’t you go check it out now.

Streeborama: Streebo’s First Blog Post.
Welcome to the first edition of Streeborama here on the MVP Blog! This week, we’re experimented with making actual personal blog posts for a change to give you all a feel for the individual voices here on the Mutantville Mothership. I decided that I’m a bit tired of writing up articles all the time so I figured I’d just shoot a v-log and post that instead – so that’s exactly what I did.
The next thing I know, it’s approaching midnight and I’m doing fine edits on G.H.O.S.T. at the same time that I’m editing this v-log. How that happened I have no idea but it had to be done. So sit back – turn on the old Youtube and fire up Streebo’s V-log to learn all the latest happenings with Tales From Mutantville, G.H.O.S.T. and the MVP Blog – here on Mutantville.com.
