Final Filming Night with Jenny...

I've just seen Jenny home for the last time on a Firefly Media horror movie before her big move to Australia on Sunday. BAD TIMES. However, we just wrapped all of her night-time sequences. GOOD TIMES.

All that remains is one short sequence on location - in Emma's kitchen - on Thursday, before we're off into Preston for a ghost hunt. And who knows when I'll see her after that? SAD TIMES.

Jenny's relationship with the Firefly Media Productions take us right back to the start, back in the days on 8mm cassettes and filming sessions pl high school Monday through Friday. She made her debut in an ill-fated (read: never completed) remake of Amy Jones' feminist slasher classic/tripe The Slumber Party Masacre (1982) back in 2001. Since then, she's been involved in almost every major project - the Christmas themed trailers for Silent Night (2002), which was awarded super high grades for an A-level project; Slashdance (2003) (see poster left), the 80s-themed slasher movie filmed around Runshaw College; last year's YouTube sensation Halloween Redux (2007); and the as-yet unreleased, as-yet untitled romantic drama. Watch this space... it WILL be coming soon!

I'm sad to see her go. There's going to be one less person to terrorize with a kitchen knife next week. If, like me, you can't get enough of Jenny, check out this retrospective I made of her and usual co-star Andrew Hardman, a couple of years back.



No time for tears now though, as Torso's really coming into it's own - we're edging ever closer to finishing and we're right on target for that Christmas day release date. Fingers crossed!
