Big Daddy Reflects on 2010



2010 is gone. A year filled with good, bad, and somewhere in the middle. Now is the time to look back, then move forward. What were the highlights? Well, as if nominating DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK for best screenplay and best direction for Big Daddy Awards wasn't enough, Big Daddy Horror Reviews has been kind enough to put the film on its year end summation.

"Or how about Dead Hooker In A Trunk? Up and coming writers / directors Jen Soska and Sylvia Soska took the simple idea of a group of friends discovering a dead hooker in their car trunk and then having these characters become involved in the most outlandish and most surprising situations imaginable. These films showed that horror film makers could still come up with high concept premises and stories."

The life of an independent feature exists only as far as people will support and pass along the piece. To be included in a year end piece along with so many other wonderful works is an immeasurable honor. Thank you, Big Daddy, for this privilege. Want to see where your favorites rack up?

Thank you for this, boys and girls. We have so many insane plans for 2011 that we are confident you will dig. We will be working hard to thank you for standing with us. Thank you.

Hooker a Highlight


It's that time of year where the year is ending and a New Year is upon us. Oh, the possibilities. Make your plans now. This is also a time to look back on the past year - what marks (good and bad) it has left on us. Now is a good time to look at highlights.


I am delighted as all holy fuck to have been included in the fabulous miss Keri O'Shea's end of the year 2010 Horror Highlights. She caught DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK at the fantastically frightening and fabulous Ghouls on Film Festival. Missed the fest? Catch up here.

"I got to see some interesting short films, as well as the diehard maverick first movie by the Soska twins, Jen and Sylvia – Dead Hooker in a Trunk – and, since seeing the film, I have made contact with and interviewed the sisters. I’m happy to have done my own small part to promote their work and I can’t wait til their next feature, American Mary, which is coming soon!"


The lady knows her horror, treat yourself to her brain. It's delicious. Thank you for including us in the list and for supporting us and other independent film makers. Happy almost New Year, boys and girls.
