Fun Fact From the Director:

During the shoot, a random woman on the street told Dennis that he needed "more white on his face" if he wanted to look like a real albino.

Fun Fact From the Director:

In real life, I'm a fairly dull person, but for some reason I come out looking like Jim Carrey from Ace Ventura in most photos. This was the tamest one I could find.

Fun Fact From the Director:

There are more photographs of yetis in this world than there are of Seth. While I'm convinced this is, in fact, a photo of Seth, the military refuses to comfirm its authenticity.

Fun Fact From the Director:

Justin provided us with the most important asset of the shoot -- the camera. (There's a special place in my heart for that man...)

Fun Fact From the Director:

Dennis was forced to take a break during shooting so he didn't get hypothermia (seriously, this guy's a workaholic...)

Fun Fact From the Director:

Paul was actually given the following direction during rehearsals: "Can you run like you really need to use the bathroom? Perfect!"

Fun Fact From the Director:

David was cast over the phone based upon his résumé, reputation, and previous work with Dennis Hurley. Needless to say, I wasn't disappointed.

Fun Fact From the Director:

The bartender at the world premiere of The Albino Code thought Jocelyn was so funny, he offered her a free drink.

Fun Fact From the Director:

The scene with Mark and the volleyball was a complete improvisation on Mark's part. The scene was originally supposed to be one line, but when I asked Mark to improvise a take, the result was too funny not to use.

Fun Fact From the Director:

Jeff is such a disciplined actor that no one could get him to break character during rehearsals or the shoot (well, no human, that is). A neighborhood crow finally got Jeff to crack up, so we included this monumental event in The Albino Code's end credits.

Fun Fact From the Director:

Ask Brian about his senior project at Ithaca College. Seriously.

Fun Fact From the Director:

Alyssa came up with the idea of walking back into the shot and kicking Whylas one last time. As soon as she did it, we all knew she'd nailed the scene.

Fun Fact From the Director:

Sereivuth is a Yankees fan, and I still consider him a good friend. (That's how nice a guy he is...the stupid Yankees fan...)

Fun Fact From the Director:

Because of the fast pace of the shoot, there was no time to light another doorway for the Matrix Twin's entrance, so we redressed the exact same door that Whylas uses. David had to pretend to be on the other side of the room looking back at the same doorway he was standing in.

Fun Fact From the Director:

It was Giovanni's idea to use a Boston accent instead of making Brother Goldsman European. As soon as he started going through his lines, I knew he was right.

Fun Fact From the Director:

Eric and Robert Woo (Hooligan #1) improvised their scene several times. Not once did they fail to crack up the entire crew.

Fun Fact From the Director:

Michael was hired as the 1st AD and as an Associate Producer, but twice during the shoot, we needed an extra actor for a scene. Mike immediately jumped in and drew on his acting background not only for the car scene, but for another that takes place at a subway station. The subway scene was deleted from the final cut of the movie, but I never get tired of watching the footage just to see Mike accidentally scare the crap out of some woman who had no idea we were shooting a movie.

Fun Fact From the Director:

At the end of each take with Jeff Phillips (the Preacher) Ezra cracked up laughing. Dennis can tell you from firsthand experience that Ezra didn't have a chance. Jeff could even get Alan Greenspan to fall off his chair...

Fun Fact From the Director:

Robert performs regularly at the Tribe Theatre in Boston, which is where The Albino Code made its world premiere.

Fun Fact From the Director:

Dan drove all the way down from Maine for his scene in The Albino Code. What can I say? He's the best Chuck Norris in New England.
