NEWS POSTED JULY 8 2007
THE VAMPIRE BIKER BABES movie completed postproduction recently after a delay of several months in production due to rains. The movie is being sold in foreign markets during the summer as the VBB franchise develops and grows with our overseas partners. The domestic release is planned in late September in time to ramp up for Halloween. The film will open in gulf coast Florida area theaters and then expand to larger markets. The DVDs as well as downloads will come online in the VBB store on this sight September 20. We are doing sneak previews for test audiences up to September so we can tweak the film before release. So far input has been very positive. We have developed several TV spots for the marketing and we are posting the spots on this site. They are numbered. You can help decide which ones run by choosing the one you like best. Each is numbered in front. Email us your choice. The Spots are posted on the Vampire Biker Babes page (see links at top of pages).
All of us at Cyberstreme wish to express our sincere thanks to all the riders, extras and volunteers who helped make the first VBB film possible. You will be invited to participate in the upcoming sequels of the Vampire Biker Babes feature films.
We plan to set up a head injury fund with part of the revenues from this and other VBB films. It is our way of saying thank you to hundreds of bikers who rode in our film and showed up for us when we needed so many extras. Over five hundred bikers rode in the movie. Thank you.
We have had some temporary problems in contacting all the riders because our computer drive with the list failed and we now have to rebuild the email list from the release forms. We are working on that and hopefully we'll have the emails out soon.
We plan to have several premiere & cast parties before the end of Spetember. If you rode in the film and you don't get an emailed invite by August 1st please email us at cyberstreme@msn.com and we will put you on the new email list we are rebuilding. We still have all the release forms so we can verify participants.
We have been asked why the web site was neglected for so long. That was my fault, too much to do in finishing the VBB film. Hopefully I can keep up with the new website and keep everyone informed as to what is going on with the VBB films. We have three more VBB films in development and plan to expand the series. A comic book is in the works and should be ready by October. There were several people who we wanted to be in the film and promised parts in scenes. We were not able to complete those scenes as we rushed to to complete the film after falling behind due to weather. I apologize to those of you who did not make it into VBB 1. You will be invited to be in VBB 2. More soon.
enjoy, Walt
