Knight of The Living Dead - Production

Production

Due to the scheduling conflicts and to hurry up the process of the movie, every day after filming, Director Bjarni Gautur would go to his home and edit the footage right away. According to Bjarni, many problems showed up during filming, as no one had rehearsed their lines and they had to re-read every line in the script before filming of that scene. Also, due to some actors being too busy in the summer, the script had to be re-written several times to let most lead characters die more quickly in the film than they were suppose too. Originally, the first 60 minutes would have had only two deaths, this was changed to have five. Main characters Höddi Björnsen and Andri Kjartan would also often not stick to the script, and even though Bjarni and the rest of the crew found this funny, most of the jokes didn’t fit into the continuity of the movie.

Famous quotes containing the word production:

    By bourgeoisie is meant the class of modern capitalists, owners of the means of social production and employers of wage labor. By proletariat, the class of modern wage laborers who, having no means of production of their own, are reduced to selling their labor power in order to live.
    Friedrich Engels (1820–1895)

    Constant revolutionizing of production ... distinguish the bourgeois epoch from all earlier ones. All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify. All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses, his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    [T]he asphaltum contains an exactly requisite amount of sulphides for production of rubber tires. This brown material also contains “ichthyol,” a medicinal preparation used externally, in Webster’s clarifying phrase, “as an alterant and discutient.”
    State of Utah, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
