The Dogman Blog

Friday night, January 20th was the second theater sneak preview of Dogman, the new film based on The Legend song. Producer/Director Rich Brauer and I hosted the showing at the Garden Theater in Franfort, MI, which was a benefit for Paul Oliver Memorial Hospital, also in Frankfort.

It was a homecoming of sorts, as most of the film was shot in Benzie County. The house was full and enthusiastic. Several times spontaneous applause broke out when audience members recognized local faces among the extras.

Following the film, Rich and I engaged in a fascinating and fun Q & A. I’d estimate 70 to 80% of the crowd stayed, despite the bitterly cold temps and degrading road conditions outside. Some people had driven upwards of five hours to see the movie.

Latest news on distribution is that three companies have expressed interest. The only question now is which will make the most attractive offer. Hopefully, Dogman will be coming to a theater near you soon!

Well, the new website is up and running as of Sunday, March 8th. The changes aren’t drastic, but we spent a lot of time on smoothing out the user experience, and adding some new content. I hope you enjoy the efforts.

Just one of the new features is this blog. Here I hope to share some thoughts, images, and experiences from our adventures with the Dogman. I  hope you’ll feel free to comment and join the discussion when the mood strikes.

Also be sure to check out our new multimedia page, the “Haunting of Northwest Michigan” page, and the amazing new sighting report from Temple, Michigan on the Encounters pages.

So check back often, and enjoy the new website.

Godspeed,

Steve
