Possumus Woman now 91% complete

A few production photos from this last weekend’s filming:

Only a Ford can stop a possum!
Doing a test run for the “drive through a wall of fire” shot.

Yes, the movie starts like Spider-Man 3, who cares?
Night filming (ug) the scene where an escaped convict becomes the Possum Woman!

"It's time for her to paaaaay!!!"
Rustic Resort survivors making a last stand to stop the possum in a scene with enough gunfire to make Charlton Heston blush.

This was probably the biggest shoot we’ve ever had on Ben Heckendorn film, mostly for the number of people involved for a single weekend. Nobody got hurt, we had enough pizza to go around and no fires got out of a control – what more could you ask for?

We now only have a couple scenes to go, which will hopefully be knocked out in the next week. My original “completion target date” is looking more likely than ever, you can learn more when the newest podcast comes out tomorrow, in which we discuss Xbox Live Achievements and the filming of Possumus Woman. See you then!

  1. All I have to say is….I think we all had a little too much fun! I can’t wait for the movie to be finished….so we can enjoy the crazy randomness! And oh yeah, for those of you who are wondering…there wasn’t a single wimpy weapon in that lineup 🙂

  2. What a fun day that was =) Only thing I would have done differently if we could redo it would be to douse the entire Bronco with gas instead of just the hood LOL

  3. Why so so specific percentages? Its strange not to round them down or up, for a nice round number

  4. I hate living in California. Crappy gun laws. Crappy not living near the making of Possumus Man Two Colon Possumus Woman.

    If I wasn’t afraid of guns, if I owned a gun, if I knew how to fire a gun, if I lived near Wisconsin, and if I had the weekend off… I’d totally have been in his movie.

    DAMN YOU FATE! DAMN YOU!

  5. Well it was actually 91 point something, so I rounded it to 91%.

    RE: Hossrex, yes, if we lived in CA, making a movie like this wouldn’t be possible. Hell, hardly any HOLLYWOOD movies shoot in CA anymore!

    Wisconsin has a lot of varied terrain, they should shoot more movies here, but of course if they did, it would eventually become harder for indies to do it.

  6. Cool! Can’t wait… FOR THE PRODUCTION BLOG TO BE UPDATED!! The last entry was 2 1/2 months ago! Nah, just saying… Can’t wait for the movie either!
