Studio Update: Welcome to "Back to the Beginning!"

Image
By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; November 3, 2024)     Before the founding of the Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Online Network, a mass of shorter films was released on DVD, mainly to a private audience. While many of these films are available online, both through the likes of From the Vaults  and Twenty Years Young , we wanted to push towards the end of the celebration by highlighting some of these earlier films. Yes, some of them did get monthly themes already, but we're taking a look at all of the rest! Back to the Beginning : What to Expect for November      November is not going to be a month to release any new content, mainly due to the scheduling complications recently, but this month's theme does highlight the many releases that will be happening! Here's what you can expect to see in November. On November 8, PeabodySam will be releasing a sneak preview of Tales Across the World: A Short Story Collection  on his DeviantArt account.

  By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; October 25, 2024)     A lot has been happening over the last several months, and while we still want to finish off this celebration on a high note, we still want to address how we're approaching this. All of this news and more is below! Twenty Years Young  is Scaling Back for the Holiday Season!     With the number of upcoming projects stacking up, we've made a decision to focus on quality over quantity to finish off the year. Because of this, every upcoming project outside of The Fourth Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Fan Choice Awards  and The Archivist  has been delayed to 2025 and beyond. The affected titles that were originally scheduled for release this year are: A Taste of Howling Hollow: The Forest of Fear Cooking with Flex: Recipes from Around Mustache Maniacs Film Co.'s Cinematic Universe A Future in the Past Tales Across the World: A Short Story Collection Alms Pouch: Finished At Last! Van Helbrick and the

Studio Update: Welcome to The Harrowing Howling Hollow!

    By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; October 1, 2024)      Did you know that our most-watched film is NOT Johnny Thunder and the Secret of Marco Polo ? It's actually the horror-comedy film Forest of Fear , which first debuted in 2011 to polarizing opinions, but also to strong viewership. Since then, the film has spawned its own sequel, a spin-off film, an in-development prequel, an in-universe travel guide, and a special project that turns the film's locale into a functioning theme park land! Since there's so much to cover in this corner of the cinematic universe, we're devoting an entire month to the town of Howling Hollow! The Harrowing Howling Hollow : What to Expect for October      Howling Hollow was originally designed to be a creepy hillbilly town but has really grown into a living, breathing place with its own history and community! This month may not completely cover the town, but here's everything that's releasing this month

  By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; September 1, 2024)     It's been over a decade since we ran our first-ever film school/game show/contest competition, The Film School Challenge .

"Johnny Thunder and the Secret of Marco Polo" Has Returned!

Image
By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; August 23, 2024)     For several years, there has been one hypothetical special edition that has lingered out of sight ever since From the Vaults  debuted in 2012. Today, twelve years after the question was first brought up, Johnny Thunder and the Secret of Marco Polo: Special Edition  has finally debuted! This and more are below! Johnny Thunder and the Secret of Marco Polo: Special Edition  has Debuted!     For years, it was considered controversial to even think about touching  Johnny Thunder and the Secret of Marco Polo , even as other films of ours were going under the knife and coming out of From the Vaults  in an almost unrecognizable form. It was, after all, the film that created the online network and our fanbase, so it has a very special, almost sacred, place in our repertoire of content. However, as technology progressed and our arsenal of tools expanded, as well as a changing world and the advent of Twenty Years Yo
