I had a chance to zip down to Los Angeles and meet Eric Bernt, the screenwriter for the INFECTED movie. It was a good time, but then I put him on the spot with Junkie questions about the movie. We discussed the filming process, special effects for the triangles, the use of puppies to get that coveted, family friendly G-rating, and when we can expect to see INFECTED in theaters (if at all, many hurdles yet to overcome). 

love the book

I love the book, i read it twice while i was in hospital. as soon has i read it i thought it would be a great film, i was hopping it would be an 18 so we can have all the blood and gore which made me squirme while i was reading it. just cant wait till its made going to keep an eye out for it.

No "SAVE PERRY'S BALLS" movie posters

I'm curious what body part he could be mutilating as a substitute to Perry's balls that would make him seem "heroic". It shouldn't be an arm or leg because that's been done (Saw 1). Maybe an eye?

HaHaHa

I love how you laugh when he says he feels the chicken scizzors scene,

And you cant just cut out (no pun intended) the chicken scizzors scene, you just dont have to show it in full

 

heres to hoping this gets made 


WOW, he knows what we want

 We want to feel the scary heroness of Perry, Eric sounds like he has the right idea about translating the dark horror of self mutilation for the good of humanity in a way that will work BETTER than just showing a "bloody gorefest". I hope things will really happen for you.

yeah..

If they made it into something like Saw, it would just loose everything that makes the book what it is.  

Heres hoping we get to see some Ki....

just which page of the book they could use to get a G rating. And who would pay money to see a movie that only ran for 45 seconds or so? 

 

..No Bounce..

...No Play...


But what an awesome 45 seconds it would be ...

Thanks for reading my question, Scott! That was a great interview, and I learned a few things I hadn't thought of, for the beginning of making a movie.

You're welcome!

Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for kicking in the question. It was awesome to have questions from y'all to give him.

this is excellent news

Hey FDO!

You Know you'll have to consider (or just crush me for suggesting this)  a contest to allow some privileged Junkie the honor of attending the opening preimere with The Evil Queen and yourself. On the up side of that, you'll at least have some one to run for drink and popcorn refills! :)

Thanks FDO!

*Edit* 

Great Interview FDO! Sounds like Eric has a good understanding of the essence infected. I will like to see how he infers the the use of the chicken scissors in the screenplay.
