I do not believe that this film is beyond the pre-production stage and seems to involve mostly very obscure character actors. V. Joe (talk) 01:41, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The film is finished and the teaser trailer can be viewed here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpexONc4mG4. Robert Z'Dar is a huge name in horror genres along with Joe Estevez. Z'Dar helped us with the casting and is also one of the Associate Producers. Larry Thomas was nominated for an Emmy for his role as The Soup Nazi in Seinfeld and recently played the role of Osama Bin Laden in the Ewe Boll helmed Postal. Jason Konopisos produced a movie recently called Chronicle of Purgatory: The Waiter which starred Charles Durning and Glenn Morshower. Jason was featured in a prominent role in the Untitled Horror Comedy and is also one of the Associate Producers. All of this information was sited to the movies IMDB page in the main article and can be viewed on this link. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1454705/

- Delete. No sources are provided other than IMDb, whose standards for inclusion require some kind of public availability but do not require notability. Contrary to the nom, this movie has apparently had one screening already, but nothing in this article or the IMDb page says anything about any further distribution. Furthermore, the plot description in this article has apparently been copied from IMDb in violation of their copyright. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 01:30, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete without prejudice. Not notable, maybe later. Hairhorn (talk) 07:28, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete until it gets a name, claiming notability by listing other films the actors have been in fails the GNG. Darrenhusted (talk) 19:09, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete without prejudice When the spoof was screened at Texas Frightmare, it was done under the tongue-in-cheek title "Untitled Horror Comedy" [1]... so it may never have a different name. However, I do agree it does not yet meet WP:NF. MichaelQSchmidt (talk) 21:25, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The name Untitled Horror Comedy is the final name for the movie. Naming this movie was one of the most difficult aspects if not the most difficult aspect due to finding a name that fits the movie without giving away too much of the plot twists. Now explain why the production process of this movie does not warrant it being "notable" In that a Hollywood quality movie was produced and finished in three months, and that it was produced outside the "Hollywood System," in a state which at the time had uncompetitive film subsidies which made it one of the only full lengh "Hollywood quality" feature films to be produced in the State of Texas in 2009. As for the IMDB, it was only accepted after an invite code was granted by Withoutabox an Amazon.com subsidiary and sister company of the IMDB, after its successful submission to a major film festival (which will be listed as soon as the official list of movies is announced and embargo is lifted).

- Keep The timeframe it took to finish this movie is a major accomplishment because most movies take over a year to be completed. 22:10, 4 August 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.163.133.76 (talk)
- Not really, Woody Allen shoots and edits a film in four months, he then chooses to spend eight months of the year doing other things, and that is not a reason to keep the article. We do not reward for effort. Darrenhusted (talk) 20:14, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Agreed, movies take as long to make as they take, it all depends how much work you want to put into them. This is far from the only movie finished in 3 months. Hairhorn (talk) 20:15, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Can you state which Woody Allen took 3 months to make? And movies that have a long production schedule usually have an situations unfold where a good portion of the their budgets not go towards what ends up on screen. The fact of the matter is that feature with names talent attached (which required this to become a SAG production)was done in less time and for a smaller budget than many short films with non-established actors. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Carbonflyer (talk • contribs) 04:51, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I hate to think that I might be not assuming good faith, but I am not sure that the "keep" side of the isle might have a sockpuppet? I say this because they seem to have the same tone. Thanks V. Joe (talk) 22:21, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
