In this dramatic thriller, a lonely young man is so desperate for friendship he’ll meet a creepy complete stranger in an attempt to make a friend. Says writer/director Tom Madigan, "April 2007 began the production of my second feature length movie, Dead Doornails. The script was written back in 2004, when I had intentionally set out to create a feature length movie designed for a modest budget. I had shot a quick teaser trailer back in 2004 as well, but then left the project alone for over two years. When I thought I had an investor to put up the budget for the movie in 2006, Dead Doornails was given attention once more. The investor fell through, but after revisiting the face-paced and super witty script, I decided to green-light the project myself on a shoe-string budget, using my own personal funds."
"Dead Doornails is a comedic thriller... a dark comedy that sees a modern day Los Angeles crime boss, Mr. Greggo, lose a large sum of money due to, seemingly, one of his incompetent goons. The goon winds up dead, the money and the goon’s girlfriend missing. Not trusting the abilities of his remaining staff, Greggo hires a hit man from a different gang in hopes to recollect his elusive fortune. The acting in this movie is superb, and as of this publication, has passed the half-way point of production. The film will be redady for release long before our projected October release date."
Written, produced and directed by Tom Madigan, DEAD DOORNAILS stars Derek Hall as Conroy, Christina Morris as Shay, Gloria D’Simone as Crassandra, Travis Dixon as Jimmy, Dylan Rhode as Tangle Tooth, and Brian Weil as Mr. Greggo. Adding their superb performances are Mike Muscat, Pascale Gignon, Domiziano Arcangeli, Joey Baker, James Metropole, Michael Q. Schmidt, Christine Owens, Ivy Blue, Anthony Frederico, and Michael Babel.
