A casting call for a bunch of adolescent and teenage kids and middle-aged men, only? That also happens to lack any and all information on what the show is actually about? Gross. I get the feeling the men auditioning are going to get ambushed by Chris Hansen when they walk into the audition room.

Boobs Make Everything Scarier

INDIE HORROR

Casting twist-ending independent horror shorts and a Gothic-type feature. Seeking: females, 18 to 30-ish, attractive, exotic, and busty types to play lead heroines, victims, vampresses, gypsies, nurses, maids; males, 30-plus, character types for intense scientists, Catholic priests. Non-union. No experience necessary (models welcome). Transportation and DVD copy. Pay for leads. Send pix & resumes to Shriekcinema...

Why bother with the twist-endings when, based on the casting notice, I'd say these projects already sound completely unpredictable and unorthodox for the horror genre. Older professional men, young top-heavy working girls... I'm frightened already.

Psychics + Lesbian Law Enforcement = Good Entertainment

"CLOSING TIME," INDIE THRILLER
Casting for "Closing Time," independent digital cinema feature. Principal photography in July in Stamford, CT. Mystery thriller about small-town sheriff and local psychic trying to solve three missing person cases. Seeking--Father Mark: Caucasian, 40-50, streetwise, conservative; Colonel Rook: Caucasian, 60-70, Korean War veteran; Nickie: all ethnicities, easygoing, friendly, lesbian sherriff; James: all ethnicities, 30-40, handsome prodigal son who may be psychic; Sandra: all ethnicities, 30-40, serious, dedicated lesbian detective. Some nudity for Nickie, James, and Sandra. Auditions will be held by appointment on May 24-26 from 9AM-5PM at Soundwaters Center, Cove Island Park, 1281 Cove Road, Stamford, CT. For an appointment, email pix and resumes to XXXXX. Meals, credit provided. Low/deferrred pay. Christopher XXXXX, dir.-writer. Producer plans to apply for SAG agreement.

I'm making an early prediction that, at some point, over a cup of warm joe and a moist old-fashioned... holsters and badges start falling to the floor as true love blossoms between the friendly and the dedicated lesbian law enforcers. Looks like James somehow gets caught in the 'action'... or did he see it coming and strategically time his visit to the small town police station???

Sincerely,JT JT

Makes perfect sense. But be careful with the sting-like hair (I'm not sure if they mean they want you to look like Sting, or if your hair should be dangerously sharp - hard to say), but you'll get a SAG waver. Which, I guess, is someone from the union who stands there and waves at you.

"BIBLICAL BITCHES" LMNO THEATRE
LMNO Theatre Company is casting four women for a summer production of Jeff Bedillion's "Biblical Bitches." Seeking—Eve: 20s, heroine-chic, dark poet; Delilah: 30s, white trash, rock 'n' roll songstress; Jessie Belle: 40s, voluptuous, country-western singer-dancer; Magdalene: 20s, porn star turned pop star. Some nudity. No pay for rehearsals. Per performance stipend. Send pix & resumes to LMNO Theatre Company, PO Box XXXXX, NYC 10014, Attn: Bitches.

Ever see that episode of Seinfeld where he dates the nude chick and decides that not all nudity is good nudity, and that there are just some things one shouldn't do in the nude? Remember that? Well, I have a feeling that rock n' roll and country/western singing and dancing fall into that that category, too.

Lame Title? Check.
