Pieces of Talent features special effects by Tony Rosen, who created the iconic Annabelle doll for The Conjuring and the upcoming Annabelle. Stauffer's unrelenting vision brings to mind the visual finesse of David Fincher's Se7en with the unflinching intensity of Tobe Hooper's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
In addition to the DVD, Pieces of Talent is also available for instant stream on your computer/mobile device and on limited edition, bloodied VHS tape. Collectors can also take home a unique "death scene" VHS and a hand-crafted bobble head. All of these items are available directly from the filmmakers via the Pieces of Talent webstore.

"After an amazing run in the festival circuit, we are excited to finally have the film available to the public," explains Stauffer, who, in addition to directing, served as co-writer, cinematographer, composer and editor. "We poured our hearts into this project and can't wait for people to see it on the screen."
David Long, who co-wrote the script with Stauffer, stars as a maniacal serial killer posing as a filmmaker, with Kristi Ray as his latest muse. They are joined by Jon Stafford (Full Metal Jacket), Barbara Weetman (Stuck in Love) and Taylor Kowalski (Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever).

I'm glad you're getting to see this - as it was made by people I know right here in my town. (In fact - I'll let you in on a little secret - this movie came about because I'd been working on a script for Joe and his production company. When we couldn't get past some creative differences - we parted ways. Joe then turned to David, and they came up with this movie, which features many things Joe wanted in our collaboration, but which didn't fit the story I'd concocted. So - though I'm the only one who does - I kind of feel like an unoffical inspiration for this movie coming together.) I quite like the movie - although apparently the version that I saw at a cast and crew screening a couple of years ago was not the final locked version, so I need to see it again. I'm very interested to hear what you think of it - Maynard streamed it a while back and didn't think much of it.
ReplyDeleteI have seen it last year: wasn't exactly my cup of coffee. Visually stunning, but overall too dull, too tedious.
