Short Summary
The Movie A BIT TWISTED
A dream that I have had for years is coming to fruition with your help. Won't you please help?
“I liked the movie despite the fact I'm not the demographic for whom it's intended. I enjoyed some of the quirky touches -- washing out blood being a pain in the wazoo, for example……”
Bruce Edward Walker
We spent many months and used our own funds to make this movie, but your help is needed to bring it that last few steps to market it. Please contribute and be part of our success.
As
its title suggests, our independently produced film, A BIT TWISTED, is
an intentionally quirky film that sends up both the girl-meets-boy and
serial-killer genres. Despite its subject matter, this film avoids
graphically violent depictions unlike most slasher flicks. One might
call it a sociopathic romantic comedy targeted at women. The lead
female, Nestra, is no romantic creampuff – she’s a strong character who
thinks on her feet, handles males twice her size, and commits heinous
crimes while eluding law enforcement. She demurely impersonates a door-to-door evangelist to gain entry into homes. She
is not waiting to be rescued. Yet as her body count increases, she
hears of other murders she didn’t commit. Does her small-town have more
killers?
Nestra
meets a male counterpart, Ares, at the scene of a murder. The newly
established couple combines their talents into a comically chilling
mating ritual that includes a hilarious send-up of the male presenting
his beloved with a series of deranged gifts.
Serial
killers don’t operate in a vacuum, and soon a trio of federal agents
descends upon the small town, inadvertently interacting with the killers
at the local coffee house. In a movie freely blending macabre humor
with slasher-flick conventions, the audience is kept guessing whether
the agents will get their killers or if the killers will get them
first.
A BIT TWISTED was shot digitally in San Diego with several accomplished local actors.

This is a genre film for those who don't like the standard commercial formula. It is fun, pokes fun at TV culture, is somewhat real in the relationship, and more about the relationship than the mayhem. If you like talk about how you would have done it different maybe this isn't for you. If you like to see the female quiver in fear waiting for the man to rescue her, this is certainly not for you, but It is perfect for cuddles with your sweety and just enjoying the story. It is just a movie that is fun. We have four sequels written already so there may be a box set of 5 DVD's in the future, and you who help us will be remembered and thanked and offered a discount on the box of 5.
And again, if we pass the goal that just means we can push this one better and start on the next one. This is for both your and our enjoyment so get involved and connect your friends with this great new character.
