Cellular Breakdown
Breaking News!
September 10, 2007
The West Coast Version of Cellular
Breakdown, edited by Scott Muoio and featuring the music
of Jason Ochs, is now complete. View our new 30 second trailer
below and stay tuned for show dates and times.
East Coast Premiere Thursday,
September 13th!
After spending countless hours slaving away to finish
an 11 minute 30 second film, most of the effort spent trying to
edit out my thumb from in front of the lens, "Cellular Breakdown"
is officially in the can* and ready for screening. I'm planning
on bringing this baby into the world on Thursday, September 13th
at 8:30pm in the basement of the Cantab in Central Square. An
improv comedy cabal by the name of "Bastards, Inc" www.bastardsinccomedy.com
have a weekly performance, and they're putting the movie on the
schedule that night, probably while the other acts are getting
coked up in back. Attendance is, of course, mandatory and make
sure to forward this on and bring anyone else you think might
have a subtle sense of humor and a taste for refined art. (If
they don't like the movie, you'll know you were wrong about them.)
Here's a little blurb they'll use in the Sundance program: Cellular
Breakdown stars Rick Richter in the role of Max, a man who finds
his increasingly frayed connection to society only further damaged
by the very technology intended to connect us, and features two
great songs from the smash local band "Gladiola" and
a couple of other not completely crappy songs by yours truly.
Here's the info: Thursday, Sept 13
Downstairs at the Cantab Lounge, Cambridge, MA
738 Mass Ave (located in central square, 1 block west of the central
sq. t stop)
Show starts at 8:30PM
Call me, Pete Septoff, at 617-699-6904 if you have any questions.
Finally, this will set you back three bucks, which probably goes
straight up the noses of bastards, inc...so at least its for a
good cause.
Your friend,
W. Herzog (aka writer/director Pete Septoff), August 20, 2007
*(For those who don't know, "in the can" is movie lingo
for complete, it originated in the late 1890's when films were
often stored in outhouses to keep them safe from the elements
and marauding bears who loved the taste of celluloid. This practice
ended when people figured out the humid environment and general
stinkyness ruined the film experience for everyone. Luckily, we
live in the digital age so this is not a problem. Nobody stinks
anymore.)

the "action" to commence.
