<br />
Hello, beloved boys and grrls...<br />
<br />
Since we started out in our ventures of filmmaking, we've utilized social media and online video and blog sites to keep you abreast (<i>giggity</i>) of all of our exploits. From film news to behind the scenes goodies, from rants to raves, beginnings and ends, <b>Blogger</b> has been the first avenue we embraced to connect with you all. It started at <b>DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK</b> and has continued to grow as we have.<br />
<br />
<b>Blogger</b> has seen us travel the world. It's seen us at our best. It's been there at our lowest. We've shared laughs and tears and memories that we'll never lose and always have just a library scroll away. But as our lives have changed, so has the world around us. New avenues have opened up for us to connect with you all. We now have so many ways to connect, many very <i>VERY</i> user friendly and so simple even at my most intoxicated can I regale you with every thought that enters into my mind and our long running quest for total and utter world domination beginning with the beautiful nation of Canada.<br />
<br />
It is with a heavy heart that we now end our <b>Blogger</b> journey together. As our lives have changed, our time is more limited and we need to prioritize our methods of communication. We will always have our history together, but we will no longer be updating our <b>Blogger</b>. It will now take its well earned place in Valhalla as an archive of our journey from ambitious youngsters who wanted to kick the film world in the balls to the forces of nature we've evolved to today. None of which would have been possible without the love and support of you all and our methods of reaching you all.<br />
<br />
Goodnight, sweet Prince. At long last, your work here is done.<br />
<br />
You will be able to follow us and all that is to come for us on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/tWIStED-tWINS-PRODUCtIONS/122032761355?ref=br_rs" target="_blank"><b>FACEBOOK</b></a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/twisted_twins" target="_blank"><b>TWITTER</b></a>, <a href="http://twistedtwinsproductions.tumblr.com/" target="_blank"><b>TUMBLR</b></a>, <a href="http://instagram.com/twistdtwinsarmy#" target="_blank"><b>INSTAGRAM</b></a>, <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/twistedtwins/" target="_blank"><b>FLICKR</b></a>, and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/twistedtwinsstudios" target="_blank"><b>YOUTUBE</b></a>.<br />

There is a miscon</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">ception that horror doesn’t appeal to women, the roles within it are misogynistic, and that women are not working behind the scenes to tell these stories. If we can change that viewpoint in horror, where we have this huge uphill battle for reassessment on gender equality, then there is hope for the rest of the industry.<br /><br />JS: I feel it is about equality, celebration, and recognition. We should be well versed about the history of our industry and I was surprised how little I knew, initially, about the women who were our earliest trail blazers. It’s because they are simply not celebrated nor recognized to the level that they should. It’s also important to recognize that sexism is not a male against female issue as some of the most derogatory, sexist remarks out there come from girls being hateful of other women. And there are some phenomenal male feminists out there."</span></span></span><span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;"><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span></span></blockquote>

<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: #cfe2f3;"><span style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">"There’s no denying that the Soska Sisters and the relative success of American Mary became quite the focal point for clashing opinions (clashes I very purposefully stayed far away from at the time). While for some, the Soskas were and are horror’s brightest new stars, for many others their self-promotion and public personas were entirely objectionable. It seems to me that their success is not that much different from, say, the success of Adam Green with Hatchet, and his own </span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">public persona and interaction with fans. Yet – and by all means, I’m open to be corrected on this – I don’t remember the same backlash to his popularity. I’m by no means going to sit here and type under some self-illusion that I’m an unbiased commentator; however, given the ultimately niche nature of the kind of films we’re discussing here, what filmmaker wouldn’t shout as loudly as they could about a film that breaks out of that niche, even if only slightly? With American Mary’s relative success, the Soskas became figureheads for both sides of the debate. As a result, for me, many of the cracks in the naysayers’ side of the debate started to show more clearly. That prominent bloggers can argue that women filmmakers who ‘dress sexily’ and complain about not being treated equally are asking for such treatment speaks volumes of their lack of understanding of most of the issues that still need addressing in the debate."</span></span></span></blockquote>

Composer Peter Allan works in skillful synchronicity with Pearson’s muted intonations, resulting in an extremely accomplished and immersive space, upon which the Soskas emblazon their antithetically reticent impressions of a sub-culture known for its innate shock-value.<br /><br />Consequently, American Mary occupies an innate sense of intimacy, that intuitively renegotiates the role of sub-culture within a scheme that customarily elicits systems of difference in an effort to evoke feeling. The pervasive use of tactical alienation that runs throughout the morbidly orthodox heraldry of horror surgeons, has been freely altered by the Soska’s tactful sensitivity. Lastly, the Twisted Twins have initiated a much desired re-calibration of the ostensibly overworked philosophies of conventional horror, once again demonstrating the conducive influence of cult cinema."</span></span></span><span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: #fce5cd;"><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span></span></blockquote>

Itwill feature segments directed by female filmmakers.<br /><br />The director roster includes JENNIFER LYNCH, known for Boxing Helena, Chained, Surveillance), MARY HARRON ( American Psycho, The Notorious Bettie Page) and of course, JENNIFER SYLVIA SOSKA (Dead Hooker in a Trunk, American Mary, See No Evil 2) among many other great female filmmakers.<br /><br />If you know anything about me, you know that I am a strong proponent of strong, intelligent, and creative women. I do consider myself a feminist, specifically speaking, a third wave feminist. Therefore, to see that something like this is coming together is just not only awe-inspiring but also quite touching. I have always been an advocate for strong female leads, whether it’s in film or in t.v shows (I grew up watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or in bands (Evanescence, Lacuna Coil, The Veronicas etc) and I am the first person to root for “girl power.”<br /><br />As a side note, just because a woman embraces her sexuality, dresses sexy and feels sexy, does not take away from her intelligence, wittiness, creativity and humbleness. A woman can be sexy, and humble!!! I can’t tell you how many times, I walk into a room, a meeting and can just tell the judgement on some people’s faces." ~Sandra Struzik</span></span></span></blockquote>
