I'm not gonna lie either...Capalders looks hot as fuck at the bit where he's kicking fuck out of tribe members, bwahahahaha.  That's why we call him "Rumpy"...'cause he's a piece of MANFLESH!  Bwah!  Love ya Chris!  ;)  Check out my Manflesh Monday's post I did about him HERE!

Anyhoo, let us know what you think in the comments below.  Also go check out the Official Facebook page and drop us a LIKE too for lots of news coming up about the film. :) 

Check Out a Whole Heap of Wicked News about Amy Hoff's Original Web Series, Caledonia, Produced by TACHY Studios, Including Season 2 Premier Episode!

A while back I wrote a blog about TACHY Studios getting onboard Scottish webseries Caledonia for their second season.   

Well, I am happy to now show you what the guys have been up too on this Amy Hoff written and directed original series.  And when I say original...it truly is.  Amy is an actual real life monster expert.  Yup...I did just say that.  Haha.  Knowing Amy personally, I know the madcap life she has led, and Caledonia has her kooky style and creative intelligence slapped all over it! 

So yes, below you will find the premier episode of Season 2: Mortal Souls and then an exclusive Caledonia - Professor Elemental video!  Woot!  

And lastly, I am over the moon to announce that the first in Amy's series of Caledonia novels, which she has already written four of already, is to be published by Crooked Cat publishing in 2015.  If you have a taste for fantasy fiction that is quirkier than quirk, then you'll be digging Amy's wonderfully distorted view on Scotland.

EXCLUSIVE - Manflesh Mondays - Introducing Former Rugby Player/Model Turned Actor Chris Capaldi, Star of Scottish Fantasy Feature The Fairy Flag, and New Dystopian Feature The Young Ones - Safe Haven!

 

I have been meaning to start a Manflesh Monday's post, and seeing as how I am soooooooooo good at perving on guys...I thought now was the PERFECT time!  Bwahaha.  Now me being me...when I say 'manflesh', there is always going to be something more than the way someone looks.  You can stick to your trashy chick magazines if that's all you're looking for!!  Instead, I'm selecting guys that I totally dig for a number of reasons...they just happen to also be attractive in the Jeniverse too. :)

So, first up is a guy that I've been working with throughout June on a Scottish fantasy film called The Fairy Flag.  It is kind of apt that my first "manflesh" has been the face of Scotch Beef for the past EIGHT years!!  As a Vegan I do NOT support the eating of animals, I am however a realist, and I know that people aren't going to change into Veganism overnight.  So I'd much rather know that these cows were happy and healthy and well looked after before they become someone's dinner!!  So yay to Chris for being so ridiculously attractive that he drew people to supporting a company that actually looked after the cows first, promoting a happy, more natural lifestyle.  And for being manflesh'ey enough to happily take the piss out of himself and have fun with his job too.  :) 

The former Scotland/International rugby 7's player turned model is now turning his talents to acting, and true to his Scottish roots, rather than go down the pretty boy route, he is jumping straight in at the deep end with the grittier, and may I say, meatier roles!! :)  Having just finished shooting the lead role in Dunfermline director David Izatt's debut feature film, The Fairy Flag, and wanting to branch out and get experience in a wide variety of roles, from big productions, to smaller indie productions, I can now exclusively announce that we have just cast Chris in our Dystopian feature The Young Ones - Safe Haven.  

In this new film from Tachy Studios, Chris plays Dan, a character who we meet, 20 years after the world essentially started to go to shit, due to the fall of the government.  A subject that is very on topic, especially within Scotland right now.  With the character of Dan, we wanted someone who could portray a man who has essentially lost everything, and has been forced to survive in this world where the downfall of society has left the world in a place where to have the motto 'kill or be killed', is one's best chance of survival...but at what cost?!

As a Hitchcock nerd, Capaldi gets EXTRA Morley points for this 39 Steps recreation.  I do likeee...a latte! ;)

Exclusive First Look at Season 2 Teaser Trailer for Scottish Supernatural Web Series, Caledonia!

It is with great pleasure that I bring to you an exclusive look at the Season 2 teaser trailer for supernatural Scottish web series, Caledonia. From the wonderfully demented brain of Amy Hoff, an American living in Scotland who has the wonderful title of being the only official monster expert in Scotland.  That's right...she's a MONSTER expert!  When she first contacted me back in January with regards to Caledonia being suitable for Jennifer's Bodies, the moment I went onto the official website and started reading about her, I was utterly fascinated!  Anyone who knows me knows that I fucking live for this shit.  So finding someone who is an ACTUAL expert in Scottish mythology, it was like, the coolest thing ever!  :)  Unfortunately I don't screen web series at Jennifer's Bodies just yet...but looking at some of the amazing stuff out there, it is something that I'm considering doing in the future.  And to have this bad ass chick, who is an actual proper bad ass, and full of all this awesome knowledge...y'all know that I need to promote the shit out of her.  

Amy's life story is absolutely fascinating, and one that I think needs to be told.  Before turning to her studies, Amy was a deckhand for some time, and was even considering going to Maritime Academy.  Instead, she chose to take her creative, and rather brilliant mind and concentrate on her studies.  After completing her undergraduate degree in History and Cultural Anthology, specialising in Scotland and France, she then went on to do her Masters in Scottish Studies.  Having travelled all over...Amy started learning Gaelic whilst living in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, before moving to Scotland and continuing here.  Teaching Scottish Folklore at Glasgow University, and even on cruise ships, this girl really knows her stuff!  She was even doing her PhD in Scottish folklore but has put that on hiatus for now whilst she concentrates on writing her series of Caledonia novels, of which she has written four already, as well as shooting the series amongst other projects.  

Anyhoo, after my geeking and utter praise of Amy, Tachy Studios creative director Stuart Gilmartin contacted her to see if there was anything that Tachy could help with.  Due to the fact that Amy and the guys behind Caledonia are basically a bunch of theatre nerds, with no real training in film; a collaboration with Tachy Studios with a group of guys with years of experience between them, both in live streaming, and in film...it was most welcomed.  I have always been of the opinion that filmmakers should do everything they can to support those with original ideas, and Amy is oozing with them to the brim.  With the motto, "Held Together by Prettyboys and Duct Tape", Season One of the show really did prove to be a labour of nerdy love.  :)  With Season 2, they've added some slightly gruff'er men to the prettyboys and duct tape, and I'm sure that fans of the first season will see from the teaser, that the production value has come up immensely...something that Amy and everyone on board the project are really excited about.  I have seen some of the stuff that they have shot, and it looks amazing.  

So yay, check out the trailer, and for more information, head on over to the Official Caledonia Website, where you will find links to Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, YouTube, Facebook and so on.  :)
