A Kickstarter Worth Checking Out: Diani & Devine Meet the Apocalypse

A couple of years ago while previewing films for local genre festival MIFFF I was rocked back by the awesomeness of the horror/comedy/real-estate genre film The Selling. If you haven't seen it just stop reading, jump over to your favorite streaming site, cough up $4 or so and correct that mistake. I'll wait.

OK, everybody back? Good. Let's continue.

The good news is that the creators of that fun little adventure are hard at work on something new - and it looks big and fun. It's titled Diani and Devine Meet the Apocalypse. The bad news is that they still have a way to go on creating what I'm expecting will be another exciting genre bending romp. The great news is that you can step in to assist and ensure you'll be amongst the first to see it. Yep, that's right ... I'm talking about a Kickstarter campaign that's a win for everyone. I can attempt to explain what the film's going to be about, but I'd rather leave that to the professionals. So everyone get themselves over to their main page, soak up all the informative goodness and then (if the spirit moves you) make a contribution to the cause. I already have, and it's not just because I want a cool t-shirt, I seriously want to see their new movie ASAP*. They've got an intriguing cast of folks already signed up and ready to go. As an added bonus they've been releasing a new "Apocatips" video for each day of the campaign and they're definitely worth checking out too. Not to mention some fantastic rewards for those who back the film (beyond t-shirts of course).

So, seriously - what are you still doing here? Their page is way more fun. You can also follow the film's progress on twitter.

The Road but funny? Frankly, they had me at The Road and anything not The Road. That thing was a class-A bummer.



I can attempt to explain it

* Though one of my favorite t-shirts is from their last kickstarter campaign, so figure I may as well go double or nothing on this one.
