Check out the Journal for more details about the making of each scene.

August 7, 2004:

Brian and Dana prep Sean for his scene.  Sean passes the time "clowning" around.  He did this weird little clown walk behind Ed every time he turned around.  Ed was about to slap him by the time we wrapped.

Had Sean kept it up, this might have been the end result.

See, clowns really are scary but this is no ordinary clown.  He's an unstoppable killing machine.  Just call him the Edinator.

What's more fun than branding innocent children?  Stepping on the nuts of the FX guy whose blowing the branding cigarette smoke.  Michael is sad that the scene is over.  Don't worry Michael, there's always the pickup shot.

Here's a new game called "tickle the dragon's tale."  The idea is to constantly irritate the crew member you rely on most when he tries to get some sleep.

Jude's up and running.  NOT.  The helpless victims of the Westmore Psychiatric Facility try to outrun Ed.  They must have said something about his sister.

Jude prays that this shoot will end soon.  It seems to go on forever.  Hell, this movie has tacked on a few years to my life too.

August 8, 2004:

Alec meet Chopper.

The Great Chowder Caper.  Gene was pissed and my nuts will never be the same.  I got even with him later when he had to put on the killer costume that was filled with mold and the stench of sweat.  Months later we're still laughing over the incident.

Matthew and Alec quickly become friends but who is this mysterious stranger who has been watching them?  Cue the music - Duh, duh duh!

Look, it's Darth Moronus aka Count Doo Doo the Dark Lord of the Shit.  This picture is from what I like to call "Special FX Gone Wild."
