Pop Skull DVD

I spent much of last week authoring the DVD for “POP SKULL,” a new release from Halo-8. Pop Skull is a manic, twisted, drug-infused and award-winning psychological horror film directed & co-written by Adam Wingard (“HOME SICK”), starring & co-written by newcomer Lane Hughes, co-written and co-produced by E.L. Katz (”AUTOPSY“), and produced by Peter Katz (”MORTUARY“). These guys made a great film in Pop Skull, and Director Adam Wingard went the extra mile on special features for the DVD. Special features can quickly turn into a wank, especially the formulaic publicity schlock that ends up on many DVDs from the major studios. But not for Pop Skull. Adam gave us seven short films, nine deleted scenes, on-camera intros for each of the deleted scenes, a short documentary featurette on the origins of Pop Skull, an audio commentary with himself and the film’s star Lane Hughes, DVD menu backgrounds using elements of from the film, and still photos of the lead actors for the DVD cover. Its all well crafted, and in perfect sync with the aesthetic of the film. Pop Skull is definitely a film geek’s DVD, and we are excited to be involved.

The DVD comes out July 28th from Halo-8. Here’s the trailer:
