Feature films

In 2009, Ludovico Technique produced The Hills Run Red in association with Warner Premiere and Dark Castle Entertainment.^[2] Developed by Robert Meyer Burnett and frequent Ludovico contractor Dave Parker, the film began life as a micro-budget co-production with Fever Dreams, a division of the NYC-based MedaBlasters. Burnett and Parker took control of the project and involved Splatterpunk author and screenwriter David J. Schow to do a page one rewrite of the original Fever Dreams script. Following this, they produced a two-minute "teaser" trailer to sell Parker's directorial vision for the film. Impressed with their efforts, director Bryan Singer called Warner Premiere's Diane Nelson to inform her of the project. Burnett and Parker then took their finished teaser and Schow's new draft of the script to Warner Premiere. The company picked the project to be the second film in their output deal with Dark Castle Entertainment, following up the initial release, Return to House on Haunted Hill.

Comics

Ludovico Technique also produced comic books. Published titles include Living in Infamy by Ben Raab,^[1] and The Red Line.
