About this project
LAST WEEK NOTE: Please don't let the $8,000 goal stop you from pledging.
Though we can't collect via Kickstarter (without a last minute miracle), a Donate button has been added to the manhatermovie web site for those who pledge to follow thru if they so wish (please!). While Kickstarter's time limit can be a great last-week incentive it conversely works against projects which are underfunded near the end. Nothing's perfect.

The Manhater movie is done and now it's time to let people know about it in a big way, beyond cast/crew/friends and even Facebook. The core idea is to expose audience to the Manhater web site via a series of comedy/horror shorts based on the Manhater theme. I'm talking shorts that are funny enough for people to spread around of their own accord, while inducing audience participation and building up our following.
The web series, six episodes, is entitled "Manhater Movie's Live or Die." Think "Blind Date" meets "Final Destination."
Each episode will be a self-standing sketch, an interaction between a man and woman, climaxing with the man doing something worthy of his demise. These will be distributed all across the internet (including sites such as Funny or Die) with the audience voting on the ending--thumbs up or down on the outcome.
Of course every episode will come with links to the Manhater movie site and store, already up and running:
http://www.manhatermovie.com/
http://www.manhatermarket.com/
The Kickstarter funds will be used in two ways:
1) purchase of a Canon T2i camera kit
2) production of six Live or Die web series episodes
Kickstarter Campaign Fun:
-Video Updates: Sunday PM, Monday, Wednesday, & Friday

and more to come.
