- Steven Of The 4000,000 1/2 Centrory
I’ve always been fascinated by an artist’s first work. I love watching the student films of famous movie directors or reading the early writings of famous authors or poets because it gives us a glimpse into what got them interested in their chosen art form in the first place. With that in mind, I’d like to mention that I’ve always been obsessed with writing. I’ve been writing stories, comic books and screenplays for as long as I can remember. It makes me wonder: if I ever do “make it big” someday (hey, a man can dream can’t he?) would anyone be interested in my first works to see what originally got me into writing in the first place? Well, look no further! Because I am an eternal masochist, I’ve decided to post my very first stories on this website. These stories were inspired from a childhood spent watching Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies so, so much for creative inspiration (I was really just ripping everything off). As an added bonus, I will be writing a page by page critique of these works through the eyes of adult Forest because it’s wrong to make fun of little kids, but making fun of yourself as a little kid is perfectly acceptable. Anyway, this first story is the earliest book that I can remember writing. It was written around February/March of 1992 when I was just nine years old and is an epic sci-fi tale called “Steven of the 400,000 ½ Century” (“inspired” by the Loony Tunes sketch “Duck Dodgers of the 24 ½ Century”). Because my handwriting is completely illegible I’ll provide a link to a printed version on each page. The printed versions contain all the horrible spelling and grammatical errors of the original version. So, without further delay, I give you… STEVEN OF THE 400,000 1/2 CENTRORY!
- Jason VS Michael: An Original Short Film
This is a short film that I, helped make with my friend Jarrod (the same Jarrod I mentioned in the METAMORPHOSIS review). As all of you probably already know, there had been talk about a FREDDY VS JASON movie more than ten years before it finally came out. Like most slasher fans, Jarrod and I were really excited to see it and to root for our preferred killer (Team Jason all the way!). We waited ... and waited ... and waited some more, but the movie never came out. Finally in the summer of 1998, Jarrod could wait no longer and he decided to start working on his own serial killer slug-fest. He chose JASON VS MICHAEL because that would mean minimal need for dialogue (and because frankly, Jason vs. Michael is just a more logical matchup). Eventually, friends and family members became involved in the project and the end result is what you see before you. This is the very first movie that I worked on and I hope you enjoy it.
