The award-winning GHOST TREK: THE KINSEY REPORT (TV Pilot) is an uncensored comic – horror series based around a paranormal reality show. GHOST TREK is the winner of a 2011 Corman Award for “Best Comedy” at Fright Night Film Fest and a Silver Addy Award for “Best Film Presentation Package”.
Genius SFX Artist, Conor McCullagh put the finishing touches on GHOST TREK's Colonel Andrew Jackson Trull over Thanksgiving weekend for the "Confederate Ghouls" segment.
Also, Conor McCullagh put the finishing touches on a spec head for a character I created for the Confederate Ghouls feature (for TV). The character’s name is Colonel Andrew Jackson Trull, a Confederate who fought against the Union for many months after Lee surrendered at Appomattox. The Colonel led his rag tag Black Flag regiment until they were captured and put to death; their final resting place being a town called Cemetery, South Carolina. More on that soon.
Conor is also working on a head for another character called Fatty Biggs for the “Zombie straight outta Compton” episode.
In case you’re a noob, GHOST TREK follows the Paranormal Underworld Detective Society (PUDS) as they investigate haunts across the U.S. and abroad between tanning beds, babes, body-building, and bong hits — all the while risking life and limb capturing the undead and unexplained on video.
The team is lead by Dr. Zeke Wallace (Michael Melendez), a good-looking ex-chiropractor turned paranormal investigator, his ex-girlfriend and show’s producer, Shawna Leibowitz (Gia Allemand), Scary Carrie Carmichael (Christy Johnson), the “Living-Dead Roller-Girl” case manager, Barry ‘The Bomb’ Burkowski and Joey ‘Mayhem’ Moscone affectionately called The Goon Squad (Colt Cabana and Disco Inferno), The fashion-conscious psychic Guy Swisher (Brett Gentile), the team’s tech specialists and devoted stoners are Robbie (Michael Bortone) and Ray-Ray (Jonny Fairplay), Weasel the kleptomaniac “emo” cameraman (Kevin Johnson, and newbie Jules Partridge (Julia Bullock) the “investigator in training”.
In the pilot, the PUDS team travels to Aspen, Colorado to investigate a supposed “cursed” house where a young pageant girl, Tyler Rae Kinsey (Addy Miller), was choked to death with a jump rope. Described by FILMTHREAT.COM as “… ridiculously entertaining and deserving of a full season of follow-up episodes” and “…the funniest group of paranormal researchers since Peter Venkman, Raymond Stanz, and Egon Spangler” by DREADCENTRAL.COM, GHOST TREK is “More funny than scary” says the Charlotte Observer.
More VENTURE BROS. than GHOST HUNTERS… More CLERKS than SCOOBY DOO, GHOST TREK brings the laughs. It’s “Paranormal research with an emphasis on bad taste.”
