Bounty now available to stream FREE on Amazon Prime!

This is the background graphic I used for their site. Note, you cannot see any nips or crotch--they've been painted out per the terms of service.


The link to add it to your watchlist is here!

It's already in the top 100 horror movies on Amazon Prime! See Tom Proctor in his favorite role to date! This is why he ranked me as one of his three favorite directors next to James Gunn and Quentin Tarantino.

Or it could have been the money I bribed him with.

Bounty is Available to Stream on Amazon

Check it out while you can--you can buy it for $9.99 or stream it for $1.99

I can assure you that's a temporary price. I normally don't let Amazon do the rentals, because they set the price and they always set it too low. Case in point--there you go. For every $1.99 viewing we get a massive $.90!

Yeah, it's a shitty split, but what are you gonna do?

Still Working on Kinonation Deliverables


I've filled out all the forms on Kino but here's something that's sucking right now.

SRT files.

You have to have one for the deliverables. An SRT file is the file used to display subtitles when people speak.

For instance, this is how some of mine looks:

152
00:10:11,230 --> 00:10:13,711
You know, they think it'll
lead back to drugs,
which is

153
00:10:14,062 --> 00:10:14,985
total bullshit man.

154
00:10:18,202 --> 00:10:19,118
I ain't going back to that.

155
00:10:24,102 --> 00:10:25,377
What's up guys?

156
00:10:29,812 --> 00:10:32,477
See, the drug thing's why I
can't carry a gun like the
rest of them.

157
00:10:33,154 --> 00:10:35,886
I got a conviction so it's
against the law for me.

158
00:10:37,122 --> 00:10:39,021
So, uh...

159
00:10:40,034 --> 00:10:41,282
I get the pepper spray.

So I had a dialogue spotting list for Bounty, but it was never exact(and it also applied to a file that had a Universal Counting Leader), so what I'm having to do is play the movie on VLC, trying to note when they say a line--beginning and end.

Then go over and add those times to that line in the text file. Note--VLC doesn't display milliseconds, so you're guestimating numbers. You save that text file, then reload it into VLC and check to see if you're exactly right.

You never are. Let me just say, I'm at the 11 minute mark in the movie and I've spent about six hours working on it. It's the worst thing ever.

Gonna put quite a delay in this...
