I am making a semi short (30 mins) movie. Its about this cowboy guy who wanders into a village that is abonded except for a few people. He has to fight off some monsters to save the town. Originally it was supposed to be a serious B-movie using chupacabras with a dash of comedy. Now I am thinking of just going straight over the top comedy and making him fight Canibal ninjas or something.

hey I'm not sure if this will help, but there was recently a topic similar to this, here

I read that article, but it really has very little to do with my thread.

Not as little as you may think.... maybe your monster would look cool if you modify a mask like that guy did.

Why not build a puppet and green screen it into ur shots? that way u could have it as large or as small as u wanted AND make it watever shape u want?
