Aw, no wizard. What was his name? and the Duel is completely missing. At least, you could have him brandish the scythe and say "YOU DON'T KNOW HOW SORRY THIS MAKES ME" / Mort: "I might." Ah well, it's finished and over now.

It was very good on the whole, especially the voice acting. Absolutely loved Death and Mort and their deliveries.

We actually filmed all that material, especially the duel. Sadly this was a student film and there was limited time in which to create it. I wound up having to cut it down to the scenes that were done in time, and about half the movie vanished that way.

Which is fair enough, I think people might not sit through a longer movie. But I certainly wrote and recorded the whole book.

There's a DVD version of this, where you get to hear some of this lost material, including most of the duel.
