Hey folks, Harry here - back a couple of years ago - we screened a film at SXSW from a strange Chilean Geek Director by the name of Nicolas Lopez. He's this mad genius that struck me instantly as a non-domesticated Guillermo Del Toro. That's no insult at Guillermo, but I do believe that he is housebroken -- whereas Nicolas Lopez, well, you never can tell. He's hilarious and absolutely unpredictable. His first film, PROMEDIO ROJO was absolutely geek gravy, the type of gravy you ask to have an extra bowl of, because it was just that fucking good. Sadly - there wasn't an American Distributor with the slightest clue of how to release this incredibly imaginative and even emotional film. However, the film found fans in myself and the rest of the AICN team. Directors like Guillermo Del Toro and Robert Rodriguez and Eli Roth all fell in love with it - and there was quite a bit of buzz on the amazingly talented - impossibly young Nicolas Lopez. He began entertaining offers from studios to hook him up with an American film - sadly... they weren't the sort he would jump for. Instead, he made the right choice. To get the financing independently and shoot his next film in Chilie and Japan. An intimate romantic comedy involving unsuspecting superheroes and the end of the world as we know it. He's put together a cast from films like SNAKES ON A PLANE, FERPECTO, INTACTO and the latest TORRENTE films. This is not a spoof film, but rather a very personal film that's his perspective on the whole epic Superhero genre. Now - sure - he isn't making a film with say the resources that Raimi has, but he's making incredibly entertaining work. I'm dying to see this film - as if it were the next SPIDER-MAN, because I don't necessarily know what to expect from Lopez. He's an emerging filmmaking of incredible promise and talent.
