     Day 17 seeing as I'm off track night for night I felt like going ahead after "Hatchet III" and doing "Victor Crowley" with tour stop talk, with Adam Green.  First off if you have seen any of the Hatchet films you know what your getting into, blood, gore, and hilarity abound.  This film brings more of the same.  I understand what happened in part 3, but this also has a legit answer to follow it ten years later.  The cast is awesome and with Mr. Green back behind the camera never hurts.  The film itself implies that there may or may not be a part 5.  The talk before the film was awesome hearing what he went through to keep the film "silent" was crazy simple.  I felt he himself was surprised it was pulled off.  The audience feed off every emotion in the film, which is high praise itself.  Afterword he talked a little more before the Q&A started.  He actually took my question and answered it.  I asked why use practical effects over the modern go-to CGI?  He answered it, by stating he feels old school like the 70's and 80's when you had to use practical effects, he adores that era.  An American Werewolf in London has the classic transformation scene, Child's Play has the Chucky doll, all great examples of what highlights the films of that time.  He also said that he adores what can be made over what a computer puts in afterword.  It's keeping a craft alive.  Then he also had tour stop only merchandise, most had to be made to order like Crowley's skull, his hatchet, and even a book wrote by Adam Green and Joe Knetter, and a Crowley doll (seen in movie, with book).  The only thing available to take home was an awesome tour poster, which he would sign FREE.  Great movie and great guy Adam Green is, he stated before he would stay and meet and talk with everyone who wanted to stay, great man, he stuck to his word.
