A lot has been going on in terms of my directorial debut THE SHELTER<\/a> since its FRIGHTFEST screening (read all about that and see the reviews here)<\/a>. And hey I’m not complaining! Here we go!<\/p>\n

-The film will be screening at the prestigious\u00a0SITGES FILM FESTIVA<\/a>L on\u00a0October 9th at 8:00PM at the Retiro <\/strong>as part of the Panorama Fantastic <\/strong>section! I will be there to present it. The last time I was in Sitges was as press for AITH in 2010. I promised myself then I wouldn’t go back unless I had my first feature as a director under my belt – so there ya have it!<\/p>\n

More press on the film surfaced:<\/p>\n

-I talked about the film with SCI FI NOW<\/strong>\u00a0HERE<\/a>!
\n-Talked with THIS IS HORROR<\/strong> about the film HERE!
\n<\/a>–HORRORNEWS<\/strong> and I had a chat about the movie HERE<\/a>!
\n<\/a>-I had a “deep” chat about the film and spirituality with STARBURST MAGAZINE\u00a0HERE
\n<\/a><\/strong>-I yapped with HORRORTALK.COM<\/strong> about the flick HERE<\/a>.
\n-The Shelter star Michael Pare was interviewed by HORRORNEWS.NET<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>HERE<\/a>
\nwhile\u00a0his genre career was dissected on my site AITH<\/strong>\u00a0HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

-Finally HORRORTALK<\/strong> gave it a semi conflicted review HERE<\/a> and the UK genre site THIS IS HORROR<\/strong>\u00a0covered it too!\u00a0Here is an excerpt:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Shelter\u00a0<\/em>is pretty much a one man vehicle for Michael Pare who is never anything but captivating as he owns the screen. It\u2019s not easy to hold an audience\u2019s attention for an entire movie, but the combinations of Pare\u2019s experience as an actor and Fallon\u2019s energy, vision and storytelling style \u00a0is both entrancing and intoxicating.For those who are prepared to engage with it The Shelter will run deep and resonate within for a long time after the credits have rolled.\u201d<\/strong> Read the entire review\u00a0HERE!<\/a><\/p>\n

So that’s it for now! Lots of hustling and strategizing on my end in the name of getting the film where it needs to be. Posing lots of actions, not always getting the intended reactions – but that’s the nature of the beast. I just keep forging forward man, with faith that through perseverance, the movie will be where it needs to be at the end of this journey. THE SHELTER is a HUGE chunk of my life right now. Huge.<\/p>\n

I know more press about the film will arise in due time, more Festival screenings are up in the air and I am also hoping that the Sitges screening will be a good push for the picture in terms of it finding a home ( for distribution inquiries, e-mail us here<\/a> ). \u00a0I’ll keep keeping you all in the loop as always! Please keep tabs on the film via the Official The Shelter blog<\/a>\u00a0(we’re having cast and crew QNA’s pop up there at random) and the FB page!<\/a><\/p>\n

Again, a big thank you to those of you who have are still supporting me and the film. Cheers and God bless! John<\/p>\n
