Tim Burton's film Ed Wood was based upon the Feral House title, Nightmare of Ecstasy: The Life and Art of Edward D. Wood Jr.. The Feral House title American Hardcore: A Tribal History by Steven Blush has been made into a feature documentary of the same name, released by Sony Classics in the fall of 2006. Other Feral House titles have had their film rights optioned, and are currently in development: Lexicon Devil: The Fast Times and Short Life of Darby Crash and the Germs by Brendan Mullen (released as What We Do Is Secret); Sex and Rockets: The Occult World of Jack Parsons by John Carter, introduction by Robert Anton Wilson; Shit Magnet by Jim Goad; 15 to Life: How I Painted My Way to Freedom by Anthony Papa with Jennifer Wynn; Big Dead Place: Inside the Strange and Menacing World of Antarctica by Nicholas Johnson.

Famous quotes containing the word film:
“A good film script should be able to do completely without dialogue.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“Is America a land of God where saints abide for ever? Where golden fields spread fair and broad, where flows the crystal river? Certainly not flush with saints, and a good thing, too, for the saints sent buzzing into man’s ken now are but poor- mouthed ecclesiastical film stars and cliché-shouting publicity agents.
Their little knowledge bringing them nearer to their ignorance,
Ignorance bringing them nearer to death,
But nearness to death no nearer to God.”
—Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
“Perhaps our eyes are merely a blank film which is taken from us after our deaths to be developed elsewhere and screened as our life story in some infernal cinema or despatched as microfilm into the sidereal void.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
