mokele mmembe (Freakylinks)

This FOX television series flopped after a single season (2000-2001). The premise: a twenty-something (Derek Barnes played by Ethan Embry) takes over his presumed deceased, twin brother's web site to explore the paranormal and possibly discover the truth about his brother's death. The series was intelligent and funny, but most importantly, innovative. This web site paralleled the television series. (If Derek uploads a diary entry or a video shot with his camcorder on the episode, it shows up on the web site). This is one of the clips downloaded from the original site.

I've got a blog request into producer Rob at Haxan. Hopefully he will answer.

@120inna55 - Try this one: tinyurl(dot)com/dino-mercenary

it links to the one you posted above...

& Here's the entire archived website as it was seen before Freaky Links was canceled. The show, with its live-time interactivity, was ahead of its time: haxanDOTcom/portfolio/freakyli­nks/

@Spookysr I'll try again:

@Spookysr: Yeah, I tried that right off. No go.

[Spookysr]

@120inna55 - Well if you use the (dot) method you can get around it. Like this: website(dot)com. Is there anyway I can contact the producer?

[120inna55]

@Spookysr : Sorry, I don't know who the "actor" is. I tried to post a link to Haxan's archived Freaky Links page with reference to that specific story, but YouTube won't allow it.

@120inna55 - Is there anyway you can tell me who the actor "John the Mercenary" is being played by? The credits I found did mention who Derek and Jason where but not John. There's only 2 gun ranges in Gainesville but they don't look like this. John's story sounds REAL as hell. Where would Freekylinks get a dino story like this?

@Spookysr - Yep, all staged, but written to feel like a real impromptu moment. This is just another one of the cam videos shot by the fictitious Freaky Links crew.
