Do you like bowling? Do you like blood and gore? Then you're in for a real treat. According
to Fangoria, makeup FX artist and LIVE FEED director Ryan Nicholson gave word that he’s
about to start shooting his second feature, GUTTERBALLS. This combination of an
American pastime (bowling) with a Euro influence (giallo gorefests) being shot in Canada
(Vancouver, to be exact) is set during a “midnight disco bowl-a-rama” where the players
get bloodily slaughtered by a mysterious killer. "Like Justin Timberlake taking sexy back, I’
m taking horror back to the balls-out stalk-and-slash gorefests of the ’80s," Nicholson
tells Fangoria. "We’re filming in a blacklight enviroment with insane kill scenes that will
give LIVE FEED’s infamous snake-down-the-throat scene a run for its money!"
Nicholson, who’s also producing GUTTERBALLS with Dan Walton, Michelle Grady and his
father Roy, says his new movie will nonetheless have a tonal difference from the first one.
"I’m going over the top with the sex and violence, but where LIVE FEED was more
cartoony and campy, GUTTERBALLS is completely serious, and only via shooting it as such
will any dark comedy come out of it. I have homages to HALLOWEEN, A NIGHTMARE ON
ELM STREET, MANIAC and a few other groundbreaking horror masterpieces, as well as
keeping within the black-gloved/masked-killer whodunit theme of the Italian gialli. The
difference is that our villain wears a bowling bag as headgear and uses balls and pins
delivered via by a black-bowling-gloved hand in his frenzied attacks."
Nicholson continues, "My new makeup effects company Life to Death FX is handling all the
gruesome death scenes, and Michelle Grady, my partner in life and work, is in charge of
killing off the cast in the most brutal ways I’ve conjured up. I have a great young cast of
Vancouver actors that have been champing at the bit to bowl some GUTTERBALLS and kill
or be killed. Do you have the balls to watch it?" The three-week shoot begins in early July,
and Nicholson aims to complete post-production in time for a fall release. Be sure to check
