Dark Horse Indie is doing Interesting Things

And they roped in Phil of the Future for the ride.

Riddled with guilt over the loss of his rock star older brother, 16 year old David Forrester (Ricky Ullman) becomes obsessed with death, leading his misguided parents to send him to Driftwood, an “Attitude Adjustment Camp for Troubled Youths” run by the sadistic Captain Doug Kennedy (Diamond Dallas Page) and his brutal young henchman, Yates (Talan Torriero). Once there, David becomes haunted by the spirit of Jonathan (Connor Ross), a former inmate who met a mysterious end; a mystery whose resolution could very well be David’s only way out…………..

The movie’s called Driftwood and looks to be released directly to DVD this November.

One of a few direct to DVD projects I’ve seen that seems worth a watch.

I loved that movie back then. I love the damn thing now. Good fun popcorn goodness, it was.

Inside the Ain’t It Cool link you’ll find info on why The Monster Squad and Night of the Creeps hasn’t made it to DVD yet. The short of it is, if you want to get the suckers pushed into production, you have to shower the execs with physical proof of your fan presence. Physical proof of want equals proof of money being spent in their eyes. On that note:
