	Arbitration Guerrilla Productions adventures into the realm of pure sci-fi with this brief tale of power and the precise application of it. "The Tensor Matrix" started out as a series of comic books stories, first appearing in Caliber Comics' anthology book Negative Burn. Arbitration is a brand new story from that distant future universe -- never before published. Status: script		The Azure Eye Inspired by a real event, The Azure Eye tells the story of a man driven to right a wrong he committed years ago, to repair a desecration that has forever stained his soul and now threatens the human race. Status: script
	Burying Charlie Burying Charlie is a contemporary adventure about four strangers who meet for the first time at the funeral of a mutual friend. Fulfilling his final wishes sends them on a harrowing journey of exploration and a fiery confrontation on the lip of a volcano. Status: script		The Calculus Test The Calculus Test is a very short script, but it's cursed -- cursed, I tell ye! Two creative teams have bailed on it so far, leaving it languishing as a script. Their loss. Status: script
	The Call of Cthulhu We shot The Call of Cthulhu in one single night of frenzied activity. This should pretty much be obvious once you watch it. Still, one of our funniest movies, although short. Status: finished!		The Catalyst In The Catalyst, mankind discovers that there is a missing piece to the human race when a member of an alien race crashes to Earth and claims to belong to a trisexual species -- of which Homo sapiens is two-thirds. Status: script
	The Cats of Ulthar We've enjoyed visiting H. P. Lovecraft's Land of Dreams so much, that we have to return, this time with a live-action adaptation of his popular fantasy story The Cats of Ulthar. Status: script		Come to Us Inspired by H. P. Lovecraft's The Shadow over Innsmouth, Come to Us attempts to capture the real lure, the essence of the invitation originally offered to the hearty inhabitants of Innsmouth. What could cause them to make such an unholy alliance? Status: finished!
	Con of the Dead In one of our Norwescon "Let's Make a Movie!" workshops, we skewered the zombie genre with this delightful spoof Con of the Dead. Status: finished!		CSI: Norwescon In one of our Norwescon "Let's Make a Movie!" workshops, we targeted the vomitous slate of police and investigation procedurals that the TV viewing public -- barred from actual crime scenes -- insists on watching. Of course, we were experts in the genre as usual, having seen a few episodes ourselves... Status: finished!
	The Device A woman, jilted by her boyfriend, happens to discover the same evening that the Universe is not what it seems. She also discoveres that no matter how advanced life-forms can be, they still have their... foibles. The Device isn't a Doctor Who story, but it's my inspired-by-Doctor-Who story. I think we all get one. Status: script		The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath "Three times Randolph Carter dreamed of the marvelous city, and three times was he snatched away while still he paused on the high terrace above it." Thus begins H. P. Lovecraft's epic tale of the courageous dreamer Randolph Carter and his search for the mystical sunset city by petitioning the gods of Kadath. During his journey, he travels deep into the world of dream, to the edge of the world, to the moon and back, and to the heights and depths of human and... inhuman experience. Status: finished!
	Flesh of my Flesh Flesh of my Flesh is our most current project, a feature-length action/horror movie with a strong Lovecraftian subtext. Learn more by visiting the project site for Flesh of my Flesh. Status: post-production		The Fly One of my favorite projects was a little 30-second AVI I did to learn more about Adobe Premiere. I called it The Fly. By favorite, I mean that I still look at it once in a while and I still laugh. Yes, I know there are many movies with the same name. Status: finished!
	Ghosts The Last Man dies in the Last Desert, crawling toward his Future, and away from his Past, and is visited on this journey by apparitions, each wanting something from him. Ghosts is Guerrilla Productions' first foray into a sort of Western genre, but despite the moniker, it is probably one of the most surreal Westerns ever made. Status: script		Home Home is a feature script, a cautionary tale of what happens when a group of adults decide to live as a single family under one roof. Conflict from outside -- an ex of the newest addition -- reveals hidden jealousies and fears. Status: script
	Innsmouth Legacy There is a profound horror in the intimacy of the supernatural. Innsmouth Legacy is the story of a woman desperate to escape the curse that haunts her family. Status: finished!		Intergalactic Bad Astra This was the first movie we ever did for the Norwescon "Let's Make a Movie!" workshop and it went over like gangbusters. "Jenner", an advanced scout sent to determine the tractability of Earth to a coming invasion, encounters more than he bargains for when he materializes inside a sci-fi convention. Watch out for those resurrection spells! Status: finished!
	The Launch The Launch is a cross-country adventure. Three teenagers, on their Spring Break, decide to drive from Washington to Florida to watch the space shuttle launch. Status: script		The Lord of the Rings You'll have to see it to believe it. A delicious adaptation, this completely unlicensed parody covers every single chapter of the most famous fantasy trilogy ever written. Status: finished!
	ManSlugs! the making of "A Sci-Fi Original" The 2007 result of the Norwescon "Let's Make a Movie!" workshop, ManSlugs! the making of "A Sci-Fi Original" is our second "documentary," revealing the torrid and astonishing underbelly of the making of low-budget horror movies that usually consist of one-word titles. Don't make us offer examples. As with most of the Norwescon movies, ManSlugs! allowed us to film using an extensive cast of quality extras, despite the weather's constant threat of wetting our production down. Status: finished!		March of the Fenguins Another fine result of the Norwescon "Let's Make a Movie!" workshop, March of the Fenguins was our first chance to make a "documentary" revealing the terrifying and secret life of fans. Mostly shot outdoors, March of the Fenguins allowed us to collect loads of extras and talk them into doing terrible things. It was fun! Status: finished!
	The Matricks Another fine result of the Norwescon "Let's Make a Movie!" workshop, The Matricks parodies the one movie that everyone seemed all abuzz about at the time: The Matrix. Frankly, the Norwescon version was better, but who's going to quibble over a few plot points? Besides, we definitely had a handle on the bullet-time photography! Status: finished!		Memory One of H. P. Lovecraft's most beautiful and poignant tales brought to life in this fully animated adaptation, revealing the eventual end of the Age of Man. Status: preproduction
	On the Beach One of our first movies, On the Beach is a first-person testimonial about what happens when one goes camping at the wrong beach. In other words, what if Innsmouth were a town in Hawaii? Status: finished!		The Perfect Mate It has been said that what we loathe in others is what we really loathe in ourselves. I have found in life that there is more than a kernel of truth to this. Status: finished!
	ReCreation Two men struggle with loss in this brief tale that borrows from elements of H. P. Lovecraft's short novel The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath. Status: finished!		Reliable Birth Control This is quite possible one of the most offensive movies we've ever made. Which only means, of course, that we giggle like mad every time we watch it. Status: finished!
	Revival Revival is a tiny cautionary tale. Fortunately, fewer people are engaged in the phenomenon of cryogenic suspension these days, but in the 70's... Status: finished!		Run Frodo Run Once a year, whether we need to or not, we hit Norwescon with our "Let's Make a Movie!" workshop. This year, we spoofed two movies in one with our delightful parody Run Frodo Run! which, according to some folks, has been seen at Burning Man. Go figure. Status: finished!
	Salvage Another sci-fi tale from "The Tensor Matrix", a shorter version of Salvage first appeared in Caliber Comics' anthology book Negative Burn, drawn by Paul Mendoza. Salvage reminds us to be careful that our reach does not exceed our grasp -- especially at relativistic speeds! Status: script		Shadowdog Inexplicably, Shadowdog has become one of our most popular shorts. Status: finished!
	Shock Troops It is the time of His awakening. Beasts spread across the land like liquid shadow, and Men fall in their wake. Our wars have always been fought -- won or lost -- against other men. This time, however, we are not fighting men. We are fighting a god. Status: Script		The Statement of Randolph Carter Based on the short story by H. P. Lovecraft, The Statement of Randolph Carter reminds us that there are, in fact, some things that must remain hidden, trapped, and out of sight. Status: finished!
	Stickies This delightful three-minute short features some of the finest antics of our ever-amorous stick figures. Status: finished!		The Summoning The trouble with the really, really old antique shops is that you never know what you might be picking up... Status: script
	The Temple Never before adapted to film, this short story by H. P. Lovecraft follows two descents: a German submarine's descent to the bottom of the ocean and its sole inhabitant's descent into madness. Or is this the same journey? Status: preproduction		The Testament of Tom Jacoby In a collapsed mine deep beneath the ground, six men confront a terrifying creature. The Testament of Tom Jacoby is one of our most popular short movies. Status: finished!
	Ultimate Survivor: Norwescon See what you miss if you don't go to Norwescon? In this year's episode of "Let's Make a Movie!" we take to task the glut of goofy reality shows, "Survivor" being a prime example. Status: finished!		Vows This is a short, freaky, and very spooky tale of revenge based on my short story "Vows". Status: finished!
