My Daily Create for March 27. Actually, I typed this and posted it on the 28th since I had an urgent assignment that was more important to me that doing a daily create. However, this daily create asked to re-write a movie scene, and since I couldn't think of any recent movies, I wanted to pay tribute to one of my favorite classic's that was directed by the late Dan Curtis (Dark Shadows creator). Therefore, I put Darren McGavin the role (and given the time era the made for TV movie debuted in the 70's), I thought would make for an interesting movie re-write of Kolchak The Night Stalker. I am a huge fan of Kolchak The Night Stalker series as well and not to be confused with Kojack. ;)

Kolchak sits on his bed in a sleazy hotel room. With his portable tape recorder on, he dictates a strange case afflicting universities nationwide;

Nothing within any cities infrastructures have been vandalized and no crimes have been committed. But just who is this ds 106 and why does “Cogdog” seem to be the ring leader? All ds 106 does is create art. Art out of what, you might ask? They call it digital storytelling and that’s all I know for now. I really should get back on the case of a supposed vampire that’s terrorizing the Vegas Strip, but my boss has ordered me to stay off that case until the nutcase is captured by police. I would just hinder their efforts. Oh, yes, and there’s a mysterious man calling himself Dr. Oblivion and he sounds like he might be in league with this vampire. I have yet to discover the truth…”
