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.

Best Director Big Daddy Nomination!

That's fuckin' right. This just happened.

Speechless joy. To say we've been not only nominated for one, but TWO Big Daddies? Put simply, wow.

We are honored.

Oh Daddy! Big Honor!

"So that time of year is upon us where we over at Big Daddy Horror Reviews get under way with the first annual Big Daddies. We figure mainstream commercial cinema gets the Oscars and The Golden Globes, so I figured it only fitting that the horror genre gets its own set of awards thus was born the "Big Daddies". The aim of the Big Daddies is to honor outstanding achievement in the horror genre including films that virtually no one saw to the independents to the very popular."

What an incredible idea! Here's the hugely humbling part - those sweet son of a guns at Big Daddy Horror Reviews have included us in the nominations for a Big Daddy.



I am very proud to announce that DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK has been nominated in the categories of outstanding achievement in Screenplay & Cinematography. We have been nominated for best screenplay. This is a huge honor. Thank you for including us on the list, especially with such strong pieces as -- Let Me In, All About Evil, Dear Mr. Gacy, and Survival of the Dead.


Stayed tuned as more films get announced in different categories! Can't wait to see how it all goes down. Congratulations to all our fellow nominees and thank you to Big Daddy for including our film.
