I guess its CHRISTIAN VIEL week this
week! we just put up a QuickTime interview
HERE for the Viel & me tag-team project
PAIN KILLER.
And the writer/director/editor/producer also got grilled over at
POLLY STAFFLE while he was in Vegas for the Indie meet.
Here’s an excerpt from the in depth interview (see below) where
Viel discussed all of his current and upcoming sci-fi, comic book inspired
projects.

CCF: So let’s see. You’ve got
“Recon 2020,” “Recon 2022,” “Pain Killer” a third “Recon” on the way and
plans for a super hero movie. When the hell will we Americans get to see any
of this?
CV: We
recently signed a distribution deal for the U.S. on “Recon 2020” so within
six months to a year, it should be on video shelves everywhere. “Pain
Killer” is almost finished but it is quite unapologetic in its violence and
virulently un-PC, so I seriously doubt that a distributor with any clout
will pick it up. We will most likely end up distributing it ourselves.
“Recon 2022”
should be finished by year end but it is too early to tell if we will get
distribution on it. But I think it is far superior to “Recon 2020” so it
should not be a problem this time around. Although it is always hard with
indie films with no stars. “Recon 3” and “Northguard” will most likely shoot
in 2007 if all goes well. Again, it is way too early to talk distribution at
this point.
Viel (far right) prepping up a scene on RECON 2022!
