Production

[edit]

Shooting began May 2006 in Cambria, California. The DVD was released on July 22, 2008.

According to industry sources, new footage was shot for "Dark Honeymoon" without the input, permission or knowledge of the writer/director, a motion picture veteran named David O'Malley.[citation needed] The film was then re-edited, drastically changing the original story, characters and intent of the movie. As a result, O'Malley reportedly disavowed the film and replaced his name with a pseudonym.[2]

The opening credits list a Philip Leftfield as the writer/director. Not sure why O'Malley chose to use a pseudonym though "Leftfield" is a very fitting fake name given the climactic plot twist is totally out of left field.
