frank_delargy:"Glory at Sea! is a resurrection love story about a man spat out of an underwater Hades, who pledges to go back and save his lover, still trapped beneath the ocean."
"It’s 2008, the next storm has hit, and our hero Jake and his girlfriend Tess sink into the clutches of Hell--not a fiery inferno, but an expanse of condemned souls planted like cornstalks at the bottom of the ocean. As Tess sinks into the sand, Jake is suddenly spat back up toward the surface. He emerges from the water, half alive, and finds himself in a mangled, dystopic American landscape." Who can resist that as a plot!.
RoatanMan:His new project is a live-action melee, a naval battle between warring sailboats, mermaids, and "human manatees."
joystershell:I got scammed many years ago by John Alden, a stunt coordinator. He was at Shooters in Ft lauderdale, looking for divers to work on a film with Julia Roberts and Nick Nolte. I LOVE TROUBLE TOO, or something like that. Anyway, a bunch of us paid our Screen Actors Guild fees (required, so he said), then never heard from him again. I have seen his name in credits, so he is for real. He had a custom bus parked outside of Shooters, so we thought it was for real. We did receive our union cards.
Anyway, forgot all about that incident until I saw this thread. Good luck to those who sign up!
calscubagirl:Are you still a member of SAG? Did you give John Alden your initiation fees to join Screen Actors Guild or did you go down to the SAG office in FL to join? Did you join before or after you were filmed?
joystershell:We each gave John Alden our money, $100 I think. Did receive our SAG cards. And that was it. Never was able to contact him again. That was about ten years ago. Money under the bridge, I guess.
calscubagirl:If you gave John 100.00 for a SAG card then you got scammed and I'll betcha the card you received was a fake. I can't imagine John doing that but, what do I know?
To join SAG, you have to physically go to SAG and give THEM the money and after the production company has "Taft Hartley'd" you after you've already worked a couple of days on a contract.
John was not the stunt coordinator of the movie you speak of. He might have been a stuntman on the show though. I've been a member of SAG since 1984 and the initiation fee was $636.00 back in 84. Ads up to 2 days of pay. When "I Love Trouble" was released 10 years later, the fee was probably around 900.00. Now a days it's over $1400.00.
Sorry you got scammed!
frank_delargy:And that's what the folks in Borat said too.
