Director's statement: After my first feature film "Break The Sky" played in Hollywood to a packed crowd, I was left with the feeling that I needed more. Mike Shimmel brought the rough script for 'CRIMSON' to me and I immediately knew he had something. We made some changes, recruited a solid crew, and held auditions. The entire process was a rollercoaster ride, both physically and emotionally.
There were many aspects within this movie that I hadn't explored before, mostly regarding the stunts and equipment. We had guys flying through glass cabinets, nunchuks, explosives, professional fight choreography; the whole nine yards. I have always enjoyed stories with well rounded characters and an anti-hero. If anything else, I have walked away from this experience a better director, and I'm eager to start the next one!
