State University.
While editing John Dies at the End, Donald shot a behind the scenes short, called John Dies in the Edit, which is soon to be released on the latest JDATE DVD.
"Artfully shot, cleanly edited and very much in control of the laughs and scares that arise from its insanely convoluted set of premises." - A.O. Scott for New York Times (John Dies at the End)
“It has the damnedest ingratiating way of making us sit there and grin at its harebrained audacity, laugh at its outhouse humor, and be somewhat moved (not deeply, but somewhat) at the poignancy of these two old men and their situation.” - Roger Ebert (Bubba Ho-Tep)
