KATIEBIRD Director Returns With A GOTHIC TALE!

One of the more interesting indie flicks we've seen in the past few years was definitely writer/director Justin Paul Ritter's KATIEBIRD: CERTIFIABLE CRAZY PERSON. The filmmaker recently checked in with FANGORIA about 2 new projects he's working on, the first - A GOTHIC TALE featuring Rowdy Roddy Piper! (The 2nd one is titled LITTLE F**KER!?) You can find a few quick quotes about each new project, but get the whole scoop and first image at the original FANGO article HERE. Read on for more!


About his latest A GOTHIC TALE, Ritter tells FANGO, "It was originally inspired by three classic short stories: Edgar Allan Poe’s ‘The Tell-Tale Heart,’ Nathaniel Hawthorne’s ‘Dr. Heidegger’s Experiment’ and Robert Louis Stevenson’s ‘Markheim.’ When I first wrote A GOTHIC TALE in 1998, it had three completely different ‘chapters,’ each based on one of those tales. But when we set about actually making the movie all these years later, I found myself drawn more and more to the idea of weaving the characters’ lives together into one much bigger story."

What about that other flick with the bitchin' title? "
I’m now producing LITTLE F**KER, a stoner-comedy/monster flick, and I was able to convince my friend Michael Muscal to direct."

Check out the first image of Piper, as well as more details on both projects at the original FANGO article:
