Filmmaker Shade Rupe would like to become the 26th director for Drafthouse Film’s “The ABCs of Death” horror anthology. Rupe’s entry, “T is for Trick,” embedded below has been hailed by “Hellraiser” director Clive Barker as “bloody good work.” Check out what Barker had to say:<\/p>\n

“Hey there Shade,<\/p>\n

That was an elegantly shot, sharply edited and strongly conceived and directed four minutes of film-making. Colour me impressed. You managed to imply a whole range of character options for us, from which entirely plausible narrative solutions spilled. Very fine, courageous work from you and your actors. I hit the heart to say I’d been there. I hope it helps and i will certainly make sure my guys do the same.<\/p>\n

Bloody good work, my friend.”<\/p>\n
