Reggie Bannister Talks Mel House

Reggie Bannister (Phantasm, Bubba Hotep) talks about working with indie-director Mel House (Closet Space)on an upcoming horror film entitled "Walking Distance" An idyllic, small, self-sufficient community. On the surface, it seems like the perfect neighborhood. Everything you could possibly need is within Walking Distance. But...the pastoral exterior conceals a dark past and an even darker secret. As a group of individuals - each with their own ties and agendas with the town and each other - converges on the enclave, strange things begin to happen. Very strange things. Strange enough to test (and then break) the very fabric of reality itself. Everyone wants a homecoming, but in this case you really can't ever go home again. No matter how hard you try, you can't escape your past, and you can't outrun yourself. Both are always within Walking Distance. Produced by Upstart Filmworks and Driven, Inc., Walking Distance is the latest movie from writer/director Mel House. The cast includes Reggie (Phantasm, Bubba Ho-Tep) Bannister, Debbie (Tromeo and Juliet) Rochon, Kathy (Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2003) Lamkin, Glenn ("24", Transformers) Morshower, Shannon ("Living Dead Girls", Chainsaw Mafia) Lark, Denton Blane (Desdemona) Everett, Melanie Donihoo, James LaMarr, Peyton Wetzel, Morgan McCarthy and Danielle Jones (all from Closet Space), Omar Adam, Todd Farr, Eryn Brooke, Bobby Haworth, Natali Jones, James Furey, and many others.

Keep your eye on this page for updates. Who I'd like to meet: People with screwed up childhoods, shady government organizations, victims of violent gentrification, left-wing activists, neurological researchers, killer dolls, burned and vengeful revenants, people that melt, sexualized car parts, and a partridge in a pear tree.
