The producers of this were such dickheads to me and the rest of the crew that I can't see my way to actually paying to see this.
So I'm waiting til Wednesday the 19th to see it for free in the DGA Theatre in NYC. But if anyone sees it before then, I want to know how that opening sequence comes out - the high-speed big game hunt through a deserted Manhattan.
THAT was all Handsome Stan. Most of it.
Whoo! That's lame about the producers. In the production work I've done (none of which ever involved features) I've met producers who can appreciate the people who actually toil to make the stuff come to life -- and I've met the other kind, who basically act like they crapped the finished product out of their ass.
Handsome Stan if you're reading - Mike Patton provides voice for creatures in I Am Legend.
From Pitchfork -
While I tend to envy Mike Patton most for his expressive eyebrows, he's also quite respected as a popular music vocalist. Björk, John Zorn, Melvins, Sepultura-- he lends growls, howls, and a myriad of other vocal sounds to albums by all of them. And that's not mentioning his own innumerable bands and side projects (Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Fantômas, Tomahawk, Peeping Tom, etc.) Recently we discovered that Patton will provide the voice of the main character in a remake of the Bionic Commando video game, and it's not even the first video game he's done. (It's not the last either, as next year he'll also contribute vocal effects to Left 4 Dead.)
But perhaps the Ipecac label head's most high-profile-- yet likely most unrecognizable-- current project comes as the provider of voices for "the dreaded creatures" (according to a press release) in post-apocalyptic Will Smith vehicle/The Omega Man remake I Am Legend, which hits theaters December 14. Says the Ipecac website, "He is the voice of the creatures in the movie. That is right, the evil screams and howls coming from the 'creatures' will be courtesy of Mike." You can get a little taste of that evil via the film's trailer.
Patton's other film project next year marks his debut as a film composer. He has scored a black & white film noir short called A Perfect Place, which is about "a pair of bumbling friends trying to dispose of a body," according to the press release. The movie will come as a two-disc CD/DVD package with Patton's score via Ipecac in March.
And speaking of Patton and creatures, don't forget about those Ipecac toys.
