Last night was amazing. I want to thank everyone who came out and supported our efforts. It was the greatest night of our lives. We sold out both shows, got featured on Fox 4, and entertained over 300 people. Keep checking out our web site, once we get our future showings booked we will list the dates on here. So if you missed the world premiere of Berdella last night, you still have many opportunities to see it on the big screen!

‘Berdella’ bash

The makers of “Berdella,” a feature based on Kansas City’s most notorious serial killer, are holding a bash tonight to celebrate their film.

“Berdella” will screen at 7 and 9 p.m. (the first show already is sold out) as part of a premiere party at the Screenland Crossroads that runs till midnight. Admission is $7.

Written and directed by KC locals Bill Taft and Paul South, the film stars Seth Correa as Bob Berdella, the Westport shop owner who in the 1980s kidnapped, tortured and killed six young men in his south Hyde Park home.

We are one day away from the world premiere of Berdella. It is a very exciting time to see our work finally come to fruition. The 9pm showing is open to the public at a cost of $7 CASH ONLY.

If you are going to the 9pm please get there by 8:45 or earlier, there are no previews so the movie will start at 9pm!

Finally we have news regarding our Fox 4 interview. It will be airing tomorrow evening at 9pm and 10pm. If you are going to the Berdella World Premiere don’t forget to DVR the news.

Everything related to the movie has been blowing up. Been very busy promoting our World Premiere. Fox 4 just interviewed a detective from the Berdella case and they are going to include that in their interview with us. They haven’t given us an actual date yet, but once we know it will be posted about 24 hours in advance on the web site, plus the facebook, twitter, and myspace pages.
