This would be a great opportunity for someone. I know if I was around the area I would submit myself. Good luck with the search, and I hope you find people to fill-out the cast.

Thanks a bunch!
I also want to make people aware that I am willing to consider online auditions or audition tapes via mail, and I will provide (albeit meager) lodging during the shoot for out of town talent.
Of course, that requires the ability to travel, and give up 2-3 weeks of your life, work long-ass days, and get paid next to nothing.
But you get to be in a slasher film.
Think about it.
Thanks,
Travis

That would be completely bad ass. I write screenplays and even do my own show, but being in an actual film would be nice. I hope to one day make my own, or simply be involved with one. Hell, I'd like to just have a quote from one of my websites featured on the cover of a film. Have you posted this information on any other sites? I'll post the news on my twitter, myspace, etc... If you like.

I've posted it on a forum or two, My myspace, twitter, etc, but It can never be in too many places at once! Post wherever you can
I'm always looking for people to work with, and I can pretty much guarantee a quote from one of your sites on a dvd cover at some point
Thanks so much!
Travis
