Dante the Great Safe Haven & Gorgeous Vortex should all be full length


Am I the only one that thinks all three of these shorts would make spectacular movies? Think of it like Billy Bob Thornton did with the Sling Blade short film he made, which then got enough funding for him to make the full length film. Same with Sam Raimi, he made Evil Dead but wasn't happy with it because the budget was so low then he re-made it as Evil Dead 2.

There's enough bones of a story to expand each of these to at least an hour and a half, that way there would be more time to build tension. Directors! Acquire funding and go for a full length feature film expanding these stories! Am I alone in this or what? I'd love to see three full length feature films redone with a higher budget and longer running time.

Gorgeous Vortex isn't in them movie.

I agree Dante could have been longer...but it sucked as a story. Magic is always lame.

I did like the parallel universe story...It got a little weird and cheesy but I really wanted to know about this weird satanic religious world and just wtf was going on. That might have made a better long story

Exactly. That story needed more time for the character to explore the world more. Dante needed less time or just cut outright.

A cloak that eats people? Bad acting magician assistant chick. Corny fight at the end. Dante the Great sucked.

Safe Haven is still the greatest segment of the series. TBH I don't think it will ever be matched but it is the only one I agree deserves a full movie.

Safe Haven is fine the way it is. There really isn't enough story to develop a feature, unless you just add more character stuff surrounding it. But really, where do you go from the rise of Baphomet? It really is a two act story.

How have you seen Gorgeous Vortex to state it should be full length?

Dante was awful. A lot more of the shorts deserve a feature length version over that.

reply

Dante was amazing. I would love to see a feature length version of that.

Rent Lord of Illusions then.

Do you love horror movies? Instead of just watching them check out www.supportourmovie.com

reply

Yeah, already seen Lord of Illusions. Not a big fan. Other than the fact it's about magicians, it is completely different.

That's like saying rent Short Circuit instead of seeing Chappie.

How have you seen Gorgeous Vortex??

reply

He probably meant Parallel Monsters.

reply

Yeah, that's what I thought.

reply

It's shocking how many people (even some sites) mistake Parallel Monsters for Gorgeous Vortex.
