It appears as if The Van Zandt Shakedown will be pushed another year after previously slated to be filming right now. Fifth Floor cites the ongoing strike between the WGA and the AMPTP as the main reason for projects being delayed. “It’s just tough to get things going right now with the strike going on; there aren’t a lot of moves being made right now”, stated Christopher Compton. The Pool Boy, another project that was slated to film this coming summer will possibly be delayed until Summer 2009. Right now, Fifth Floor Pictures has several options for low-budget features that they can go forward with this year, one being the Untitled Psych Thriller that was slated to film in 2009. Chad Myers may fast-track the project to the front of the line due to Fifth Floor needing approx. $4M to shoot The Van Zandt Shakedown and The Pool Boy. The Untitled Psych Thriller can be done for a lot less; Fifth Floor claims they can shoot it now if they wanted to, which may be what happens. Myers and Compton will most likely have a decision for a 2008 project by mid-week.
