 * Comment The project did not die... it just shifted gears. That the filmmakers did not maintain their "official" website is of no concern. As the "first entirely fan-funded Horror movie", they took their show to the free-to-host youtube, and moved their information dispersement to free-to-host Facebook, and a free-to-host blog. It does seem coverage that was so prevalent in 2008 has died down. Thecompleted film is out there... it's just not making the filmmakers any money. Do we expect all older films to be in headlines years after their initial coverage? Pulp Movies (2008) Fatally-Yours (2008) The Independent (2009) Fatally-Yours (2009) and mentions of production in some less-than-ideal others   Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 07:56, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment The article needs better sources. The only two that worked were from 2008 or so, and those looked like blogs/ads for the source. —  WylieCoyote (talk) 18:41, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Speedy Keep and close – AfD is not cleanup. The nomination doesn't contain a valid rationale for deletion, per criterion listed at WP:DEL-REASON. The nominator hasn't advanced a policy-based assertion why this article should be removed from Wikipedia. An expired domain name, a project possibly being delayed, and the existence of summaries about whether or not projects are completed or not aren't valid ground to remove the article entirely from Wikipedia. Adding an update tag to the article. Northamerica1000 (talk) 07:29, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd say delete. It's little more than a news article, and whilst it did have some coverage a while back, the status of the project seems unknown, and whilst I could see an argument for exception to WP:NFF if the project were current, it does appear to have died a death.  Interestingly, the article is an orphan, and not even the producer's article (which is maintained to some extent by a user called User:The10poundhorrorfilm), nor the director's article link to it.  We coulld consider redirecting to one of those indivuduals, although I think they are of dubious notability themselves.  --Rob Sinden (talk) 16:54, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Debates should not be relisted more than twice. After two relists, the standard procedure is to close the debate or wait for someone to close it. -- Bryce  ( talk  &#124;  contribs ) 13:55, 17 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete - A failed fundraiser that some small trade/fan magazines and the primary source (now defunct) talked about, nothing more. Does not meet our threshold for notability in the slightest. Tarc (talk) 17:48, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:NFF and sourcing is weak at best. The claimed endorsements are exaggerated: "support from Simon Pegg" means "Simon Pegg sent us a signed poster", among others. Hut 8.5 23:41, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
