Opportunities for amateur film-making are everywhere nowadays thanks to websites like Youtube allowing anyone to post content. It also allows existing film-makers the chance to root out grassroots talent, something which Drake Doremus, director of Like Crazy, has taken advantage of for his latest project.

Yet after fending off a hungry assailant, the holy man slowly becomes aware of his growing thirst for blood. Using his new found urges to confront evil, the reverend takes it upon himself to rid the sleepy village of the most significant members of the criminal underworld.
