There's always another festival. There's never enough money. Everyone believes in them. No one will distribute them. Their relationship is a work progress and their film is always a rough-cut. Watch this series about Susan Buice and Arin Crumley on the film festival circuit with their feature film debut: Four Eyed Monsters ...Series begins November 1st.
We met online, fell in love and merged into a beast with two pink mouths, 4 glittering eyes and 8 limbs wrapped around itself in narcissistic self adoration. It was disgusting. But beautiful.
This new years eve crystallized some big concepts for me. I wasn't planning to create new years resolutions but as I let my self sleep in recovering from the catastrophes of the day before the ways in which I'd like to improve came flying into my head. While coming to terms with it all I also was dedicating all my creative energy into figuring out what I could make for Google. They'd given me the unreleased Nexus One a few weeks prior and asked me to make a video about it offering a substantia...

Maybe there are some aspects to a failing relationship that can be salvaged? I'm so persistant that I'll just keep bargaining and negotiating a shittier and shittier deal. When do you walk away from the table? Or is it bad to think of things so black and white, on or off. Is there a gray? If two people are going to be thinking of each other all the time even though the...
WATCH NEXT EPISODE: http://foureyedmonsters.com/12 SUSAN'S BLOG ABOUT EPISODE 11: I am sort of attracted to darkness. I think I'm 90% pretty normal and 'good' but I do have this 10% that's very deviant. Being a stripper and enjoying it was a manifestation of that deviance. I understand how emasculating it must be for a boy to have a girlfriend that spends her time charming and mentally seducing other men while dancing scantaly clad simply because they pay her but I wish that my boyfriend would...
WATCH NEXT EPISODE: http://foureyedmonsters.com/11 SUSAN'S BLOG ABOUT EPISODE 10: Things had been tense and strained for Arin and I for a long time. I chalked it up to stress from working on the film 24/7, constantly being in each others' presence and of course the strain of financial crisis. I figured we'd eventually come out of these problems and be able to spend quality time together and perhaps fall in love again but then there was Kyle. Nothing much really happened between us but it was t...
Watch Episode 10 here: http://foureyedmonsters.com/10 Is love an illusion? Is it something we see happening and feel so magical about but then in reality never happened at all? I don't know. The fact that relationships just begin to deteriorate over time causes me to lean towards the idea the love never really existed to begin with beyond our own delusional experience of feeling that it did. If that is the case, why not just chase that wonderful feeling and when you find it try to keep it as l...
Watch Episode 9 here: http://foureyedmonsters.com/9 Are emotions fact? I feel there for it is? Well in some ways yes. It is a fact you feel the way you do. But also other people may feel differently or may not have intended for you to feel that way. So leaning on emotions as your navigational guide could be inaccurate. You could feel a certain way that is really all in your head and not real. So maybe people should just keep their feelings to themselves until they pass because they aren't base...
Watch Episode 8 at: http://foureyedmonsters.com/8 I know this because I'm this way. Give me an inch and I can't help, I'll slowly start to see if it's possible to have a mile. Especially if what I really needed was a mile but I was just to timid. Asking for an inch is just easier then asking for a mile. But nice guys finish last and always trying to be accommodating of others can leave me feeling completely walked on. When I so kindly give that cookie is it anyone's fault but my own that they ...
