1982....summer before senior year. Sunset's class of '83, Bryan
Constans (BC), wrote and directed the original "Day of the Blood Mutant"

Some 3 decades later,
rumors were swirling about a possible sequel. BC starting
brainstorming ideas which eventually lead to a
rough draft script.
He teamed up with fellow '83 alum Robin Cressy, who had access to a
camcorder and a microphone.
Shooting began on March 23, 2013.....Release
date: August 10, 2013
