Green Eyed Monster and $10,000 Prize Lure Horror Movie Fans During Young
Filmmakers' Cross-Country Trek
LOS ANGELES, March 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Filmmakers Gabriel Barboza and Jose
Sauceda have begun their cross-country trek in an unprecedented grassroots
effort to spread the word about the new movie Green Eyed Monster and the
$10,000 contest built into it. The pair financed the tour by auctioning off ad
space on a large mobile billboard truck that will be driven from New York to
Los Angeles.
The filmmakers completed a regional round through Texas - with a presence
at Texas Frightmare Weekend, Texas Fearfest, and the Austin, TX debut of the
movie at the Dobie Theater - and are headed eastward into New Jersey for the
Monster Mania convention. The film will also screen in Queens, NY at the Hell
Gate Social Club before they head westward toward California. The journey will
culminate in Los Angeles for Fangoria's Weekend of Horrors at the Los Angeles
convention center, and a screening of the film.
The film is a supernatural thriller based on Hispanic folklore. A group of
young friends are drawn to an abandoned ranch by rumors of hidden money. Their
hunger for the money grows as the grisly history of the land threatens to
consume them all.
The official website, http://www.greeneyedmonstermovie.com, follows the
pair through video-logs and blogs about their journey. The tour schedule and
locations can be found on the site as well.
Tour screenings include Queens, Atlanta, Tucson, and Los Angeles. To
personalize the experience they have extended an offer to the general public
for anyone who hosts a Watching Party by saying that they will make the
parties official stops along the tour. The filmmakers will also hit colleges,
horror conventions, and film festivals along the way.
"We want to tell the world about Green Eyed Monster," says Barboza, the
director of the film.
Green Eyed Monster features a highly unique aspect. The film contains a
number of clues throughout it that actually lead to real cash! Clues leading
to prizes totaling more than $10,000 can be found throughout the film. "We
wanted to create an exciting experience for the people who support Green Eyed
Monster," Barboza explains. By engaging in the treasure hunt, people can reap
great benefits from the film long after watching.
The film was shot on a modest budget with Barboza serving as Writer,
Director, Producer, and Editor. The movie itself was written around a simple
premise: If an audience is watching a movie about people digging for money why
not let them dig for their own?
