JFK Secret Out
By Richard S. Harris
Machiavelli Hangman has accumulated a mass following on the internet without releasing any sort of information to the public. Leaving marketing experts stunned at the phenomenon, some do explain the Machiavellimania as a movement more than a hype. The public doesn't seem as interested in the film as it is in the idea of independent digital filmmaking breaking the barriers and achieving the standards of 35mm films without the 35mm budgets. Machiavelli Hangman is a true underdog story and that is the reason why it's catching so many people's attention.
It speaks to the start-up filmmaker who doesn't have any money and wants to get a shot at directing a successful film. It speaks to anybody in society who doesn't have enough the financial back but has the drive to make something great by using his resources at hand.
Of course, Machiavelli Hangman also has the whole FBI trying to shut it down rumors. Although it may just be that, rumors, the government rebellion idea has appealed to the younger generations for a long time. The fact that the story revolves around the JFK assassination also appeals to the older crowds.
Whereas with Napoleon Dynamite which seemed to only target high school kids, Machiavelli Hangman has found a way to bring those two groups together without any feelings of guilt or awkwardness. The same way ET bridged that gap, Machiavelli Hangman has found that secret recipe to be a sure-fire hit across the board.
The project did not come about without a good share of obstacles. The film was going to be shut down - not by government officials - but the filmmakers themselves because the actor who was originally cast to play John F. Kennedy was paid a large amount not to do the film. The name of the person offering the money or perhaps the institution was not revealed, but eventually the producers found another actor who would act as the President and production continued.
The marketing of Machiavelli Hangman has been aggressive, and while message boards are filled to the rim with latest news on the cast and crew, posters and t-shirts have already started circulating through the nation.
Just like Open Water and the Blair Witch Project took over the American film markets, Machiavelli Hangman is expanding its grip on the public. Some posters read "Soon the truth will be revealed" and others exclaim that "Dying isn't what it used to be."
Just like those fans who camped out for weeks to be the first to see Revenge of The Sith, the fans of Machiavelli Hangman (http://www.hangmanmovie.com) are forming discussion groups, MH clubs and planning rallies in favor of secret governmental information to the public.
