The Life and Deaths of Christopher Lee Kickstarts Deluxe Blu-ray Edition

The Life and Deaths of Christopher Lee mixes traditional documentary with a dash of fantasy. It is narrated by Christopher Lee himself... in the form of an elaborate marionette, voiced by Peter Serafinowicz. The marionette was custom designed and built by Arch Model Studios, who made all of the puppets for Wes Anderson's Fantastic Mr. Fox, Isle of Dogs and Asteroid City and Tim Burton's Frankenweenie. 

The film combines new, exclusive interviews with filmmakers, including Peter Jackson, John Landis and Joe Dante, friends and family members with animated flights of fantasy from a wide variety of artists including 2000AD's Simon Coleby, award winning stop-motion animator Astrid Goldsmith and the legendary illustrator Dave McKean who directed, scored and animated a whole chapter of the film himself. 

Spanning eight decades and almost three hundred films, Christopher Lee became famous for his iconic performance as Dracula. But he was so much more than just the Hammer Horror roles he is so fondly remembered for. His career took him from uncredited parts in 1950s swashbucklers with Errol Flynn, through famous performances in 007 and Star Wars films, cult hits like The Wicker Man and The Return of Captain Invincible, right up to a lead role in cinema's biggest event - The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Along the way, he worked with everyone from Orson Welles to Mario Bava, Jess Franco, Tim Burton, Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg. 

Yet his story is so much richer than just his career. Lee was born into Italian aristocracy, with a military career shrouded in secrecy and kept his private life closely guarded. Some of his ventures and adventures seem highly improbable yet, as the film reveals, he often found himself in unexpected situations - he witnessed the last ever death by guillotine, was cousins with 007 creator Ian Fleming, he met Tolkien, performed with the classic Saturday Night Live line-up, was a friend and neighbour of Boris Karloff, he was the oldest person to ever get on the Billboard music charts (with his own Heavy Metal album), was an expert knife thrower, professional opera singer and a Nazi hunter. And somehow, he also managed to appear in almost 300 films of both the highest and lowest quality imaginable. 

The film is finished and producers Jon Spira and Hank Starrs want to share it with you by producing a top quality Blu-Ray with great extra features and a really amazing LIMITED/NUMBERED EDITION COFFIN-SHAPED BOX SET, full of goodies, which will look killer on the shelf of any discerning cineaste. The jewel in the crown of this box-set will be a 3D 'death mask' of Christopher Lee designed and produced by Arch Model Studio exclusively for this set. They also want to host some screenings - both online and in real cinemas - so we can all experience it together and you can get to meet some of the people behind it.

Making this film has been a fascinating journey - producers excavated the British Film Institute archives where they hold Lee's personal collection of scrapbooks detailing his career in his own hand, been given access to personal photos from the family archive, they met and interviewed his closest friends and family from all over the world and we've worked with some incredible artists, puppeteers, animators, musicians and filmmakers to bring his story to the screen in the most cinematic way. Whether you're a fan of Horror, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings or just cinema history in general, we think you'll be delighted by this revealing and eclectic documentary.

Risks and challenges

The film is fully edited and ready to go. This Kickstarter is to fund the final bits of post-production and the production of a fantastic Blu-ray and deluxe collectors edition box set as we're all still committed to physical media. Please note that all illustrations of rewards are designs/prototype images. The final items might differ - we hope they'll actually be better.

literally what do these people play? I thought tumblr had a pretty good gaming base but almost every pool surprises me

I've done a lot of indie games by request over the past few weeks and that's a tough market so I'm not surprised there haven't been a lot of overwhelming "yes" polls lately.

If anyone's curious, the games with the highest % of "yes" votes are:

Pac-man

Tetris

Pokemon Go

Minecraft

Space Invaders

Skyrim

Among Us

Fallout New Vegas

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

Pong

Super Mario World

Dragon Age II

Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Asteroids

Fallout 3

Tag! You're It!

Thank you @lydiablackblade for thinking of me and the tag 🩷

Last song - Bad Blood (Taylors Version) my current album on repeat has been 1989 Deluxe Taylors Version 🩵🩵🩵

Favourite Colour - Baby Pink 🩷

Last Movie/Show - Last Movie was Asteroid City by Wes Anderson. I watched it with my partner and our friends and dear LORD! It was a trip. It was a post new years eve 2AM watch that feels like a fever dream. Last show is obviously Good Omens 🥺

Next on my watchlist - wellp, my partner and I are going through Mr. Robot for the second time. The first time, we never finished it, and that was like 5 years ago.

Last Game - Dome Keeper 😎😎

Last Book - The Spirit Bares It's Teeth by Andrew Joseph White. This one is!! Very good. Trans MC, late 1800 London, gothic academic medical horror vibes.

Sweet/savoury/spicy - I'm not really sure on this, I was a major sweet tooth when I was young. Now I feel I lean more towards Savoury. It also really depends on what I'm feeling at the moment. I do like Spicy but unfortunately my tongue does not agree 😭

Relationship Status - Engaged 👨‍❤️‍👨👬

Last thing I googled - bc transcript service

Greatest Flaw - uhhhmm. I'm a perfectionist. It's hard for me to let things be "not perfect" and it's even harder for me to try new things because I know I won't be perfect on the first try. Re: Finishing my fanfics that I've started and posted 😖😖 I worry that people will hate that it's not perfect or if it took a weird turn.

I just finished their fic, Demonology and it's !!!!! My fave good omens work EVER! So I'm excited to continue the journey and keep reading this one

Current Obsession - Good Omens. That's it. Nothing else. 🐍🐍🐍🪽🪽🪽 They take up all of my thoughts 24/7.

Fic I'm currently reading -

Angel-Centered Therapy Through A Multicultural Lens: An Integrative Approach

No pressure tag(s) @turquoisedata and @moss-sprout if you'd like! No pressure :3

Karateka Climbs Again

When the Digital Eclipse team told me they wanted to give my early game Karateka "the Criterion treatment" and re-release it in a deluxe remastered edition, I couldn't quite picture exactly what they had in mind. Their enthusiasm and evident passion for video game history inspired confidence, so I said yes. I never in my wildest dreams imagined how far they'd take it.

The photo above captures my dad's reaction as (age 92) he watches himself climbing up onto the hood of our family car forty years earlier. He's wearing a karate gi at my request, in a Super 8 film I shot at age 18 to create rotoscoped animation for Karateka. (This was three years before I pressed my 15-year-old brother into service as the model for my next game, Prince of Persia.)

Digital Eclipse has reconstructed my Super 8 rotoscoping process — from film to pencil tracings to pixelated game character — in their interactive, hands-on "Rotoscope Theater." And that's just one element of "The Making of Karateka." It's packed with audio and video interviews with me, my dad, and game-industry luminaries; a podcast about Karateka's music (which my dad composed); rare original design documents; excerpts from my journals; and 14 playable games — including not only the final Apple II, Commodore, and Atari versions of Karateka, but also work-in-progress builds I submitted to Broderbund along the way, tracking its development from prototype to gold master. All the games are playable on a choose-your-own nostalgic menu of period monitors and TVs, with optional audio commentary and a "watch/play" mode that the Dagger of Time would envy.

As a bonus, they've salvaged and resurrected my never-before-published arcade shoot-em-up Deathbounce (the game I made before Karateka, which teenage me hoped would be my ticket to software success in 1982)… and the one I did before that, an unauthorized Apple II clone of the arcade hit Asteroids. Incredibly, they've not only remastered Karateka, but also remade Deathbounce, using today's technology to reimagine my 1982 prototype as a jazzy twin-stick shooter. All these are included and playable in "The Making of Karateka."

If "The Making of Karateka" were an interactive exhibition in the Strong Museum of Play (from whose collection many of the archival materials came), it would require several rooms and a full afternoon to explore. Now, you can download, play and discover it at your leisure, on your favorite platform. Details and links are on the Karateka page on my website.

With this release, Digital Eclipse has set a new bar for game-development history preservation. I'm touched and honored that they chose Karateka as the first title in their planned Gold Master series. I can't wait to see what comes next.
