Filmmaker Statement

The Seeing Eye Dog Who Saw Too Much I’ve always been fascinated by the bold, stylish world of 1970s Italian giallo films. The saturated colors, the loud, pumping scores, the murder mysteries unfolding like ecstatic fever dreams. The Seeing Eye Dog Who Saw Too Much began as a love letter to that genre but quickly evolved into something stranger: a fake cinematic artifact from a film that never existed, “restored” decades later for modern audiences. As a musician first, I approached the film with rhythm and tone in mind, editing and scoring it myself, just as John Carpenter famously did. Humor also bleeds into my work, even when dealing with killers in black gloves and doomed orchestras, there’s a dark humor under the surface. Ultimately, I wanted the film to feel like you stumbled upon a fragment of cult cinema history, something dangerous and forgotten, and now, for the first time in 50 years, you get to see it.
