Dark Romance Review
Who is the killer? A beautiful college coed with a borderline personality disorder must decide, as a weekend alone is frought with the fears and dangers of a slasher loose in the neighborhood. Though the story could be trimmed to half it's length for a more wham-bam experience, Kenny Selko's lead actress is attractive enough to watch for longer.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Q&A with Kenny Selko
How long did your project take to create, from conception to final completion?
About one year.
Where did your inspiration come from?
The Twilight Zone, Film Noir, etc.
Is Horror or Sci-Fi your primary creative interest?
Horror. Though, I love Sci-Fi too.
Can you describe a typical day in the process of creating your film or screenplay?
That is difficult. The days of pre-production, production, post, etc. were all very different from each other. However, one common thread is the problems. My days were always filled with time spent overcoming one problem or another. Making the film was a process of seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and letting nothng stop me.
Who do you consider to be the greatest horror writer?
Stephen King, for his sheer number of outstanding horror stories. Of course, there are many other wonderful horror writers.
Can you recall the first horror film that left a lasting impression on you?
Salem's Lot on television. I only saw the commercials, and I was looking for Mom to protect me.
Who do you consider to be the greatest 'Masters of Horror'?
Stephen King, John Carpenter, Wes Craven, Rod Serling, Richard Matheson, Joe Dante, Edgar Allen Poe, Alfred Hitchcock, etc.
How many participants comprised your crew?
Fifteen or so.
How many castmembers?
Just three.
How did you find your cast?
I put out an ad and had casting sessions.
Did you re-edit your film after the first cut?
There wasn't an official first cut. But yes. I kept re-editing and refining until I was happy.
Did you shoot on film or with digital cameras?
I shot film. Super 16. Kodak Vision 2 stock.
If you could choose any famous actors to work with on future projects, who would they be?
Kathy Bates, Christian Bale, Judy Davis, etc. Too many to list.
