"Pharaoh's Quest: The Curse of Amset-Ra" Gets Featured in a Documentary!

     Back on May 9, 2020, a new documentary that briefly features Pharaoh's Quest: The Curse of Amset-Ra was released! If you don't believe us, read on!

Pharaoh's Quest: The Curse of Amset-Ra Has Been Featured in a Documentary!
     Yes, you have read that correctly. Our latest film was featured, alongside many other films, in the documentary The History of Brickfilms: LEGO Studios! This documentary is actually the latest episode of a docu-series titled The History of Brickfilms, which originally debuted 2 years ago with an episode on brickfilms from the 70's and 80's. This episode, however, is the longest yet at almost an hour long, as it not only covers the LEGO Studios product line, but also the promotions surrounding it, as well as the legacy left behind by the product line, specifically The Steven Spielberg Movie Maker Set! That legacy is where Pharaoh's Quest: The Curse of Amset-Ra comes into play, as it is featured as an example of a very recent film continuing the theme's legacy (which, in our opinion, is fitting, considering that our pre-formation era involved the said movie maker set). You can watch it below.

Our Own History of Being Featured by Other Content Creators
     It comes as no surprise, though, that we have our own history of being featured by others in their own works. We have done our own research, and here is our timeline.
  • December 17, 2010: Worcester Cold Storage Warehouse Fire gets official recognition from the FDNY; the film is integrated into the department's training program.
  • October 18, 2011: SPM Physics, featuring physics tutor Cikgu Fizik, uses Wonders of Buoyancy as a part of their science curriculum to teach about buoyancy.
  • July 9, 2012: As a thank you for the prize he received for winning the Vacation: Unlimited Animation Contest, HollywoodLego creates an animation featuring Patrick Hooligans. This is the first time that an original Mustache Maniacs Film Co. character is featured in a non-Mustache Maniacs Film Co. production.
  • October 21, 2013: The commissioned Flash animation, A Bite of MyJobs, is officially released and begins screening at College of the Canyons to educate students about the school's Cooperative Work Experience Education program.
  • July 8, 2014: The results for the Crazy Birthday E-Card Contest are announced, which includes three fan films that all feature Mustache Maniacs Film Co. characters.
  • December 21, 2016: PeabodySam releases a trailer for the comic series Dino Attack: Saga of a Conflict on his YouTube Channel, VezonWireless.
  • May 9, 2020: The History of Brickfilms: LEGO Studios, created by sillypenta, is released, which features a clip from Pharaoh's Quest: The Curse of Amset-Ra.
As far as we can tell, this list is complete, but if any more information related to this surfaces in the coming months, we'll let you know.

"How To Build a Log Cabin" Finishes Principal Photography!
     In just a short span of time, How To Build a Log Cabin has finished its production phase and is now well into its post-production phase! "This has been as fast and fun production," said film director Seth Masterson. "The cast was wonderful and our premise, while simple, is one that we've been wanting to make for years. It's so great to finally see this idea come to fruition." The film will be in post-production for the next week, with an expected release on May 29. When the film is released, we'll also announce our summer plans.

Order of Final Re-Releases!
     This year, we've committed to completing our last three re-releases in a massive project that began with the start of Digital Decade back in 2018. While productions have been impacted by Covid-19, these re-releases will give fans new content to look forward to. While the on-going pandemic can change plans at a moment's notice, here is our general time frame for the last three re-releases.
  • The Adventures of Legoman - Late May/June 2020
  • Johnny Thunder and the Gift of the Nile - July 2020
  • Alms Pouch - Late Summer/Fall 2020
We apologize for not committing to more exact dates, but as we approach the summer, we'll have a better understanding of when we can exactly release these special editions.

Lead Out
     There isn't much in the way of news today, but we do hope that you enjoyed today's more unconventional feature. We'll have more news as the release date for How To Build a Log Cabin approaches.

The Year in Review: 2023

  By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; December 31, 2023)      As another year comes to a close, we're taking a look back over what happened this year. We were pretty quiet in the build-up to Twenty Years Young , but we did still have a substantial amount of content this past year. January     To kick off the new year,  Hunted: A (Not) Bigfoot Story  was released on January 8. This tale of a hillbilly with overgrown hair and the campers who think that he's bigfoot was created for THAC 2023. While the film did not win any prizes, it did become just one of many entries in the record-breaking competition that will have you stomping with laughter. We also began an audit of the studio archives as part of a final push to finish content for Twenty Years Young , as well as geared up to plow through the projects planned for this year. February     One of those projects,  Howling Hollow: The Forest of Fear , officially debuted on February 1! This special project r

Original Classics as They Were are Returning with "Original Cuts," Coming April 18, 2024!

  By: Andrew Bermudez (Mustache Maniacs Film Co. Headquarters; March 31, 2024)     Even in the midst of this celebration, we've just revealed some new ways to celebrate the day-of twentieth anniversary of Mustache Maniacs Film Co.! In addition to some new music albums and the release of artwork from our canceled projects, we're also introducing a new project titled Original Cuts ! What is the Special Project  Original Cuts ?      Long story short, Original Cuts  is a special project that aims to preserve classic Mustache Maniacs Film Co. movies as they were originally released. We realized during the backup of the physical archive last year that these DVDs are progressively getting worse for wear, and with 2015's DVD Archival Project only backing up the special editions of all of these films, these original versions were at risk of being lost forever. Something had to be done, which is where Original Cuts  comes into play.     As mentioned, outside of updating the branding
