- Kevin presents the first-ever image from the set of “Red State”, which looks to be an arty over the shoulders look from the pulplit of Michael Parks, who we believe to be one of the film’s antagonists. Having not read the script, we weren’t sure how much of the religious fanatic element of the story would be at play, but it’s looking like we’ll be in a church of some sort for at least a scene. Seeing Parks chew scenery is one of the great pleasures in cinema, making this a slam dunk to us before we’ve even seen footage. Kevin continues shooting “Red State” this month.
