Came across this via PRODs, but saw that this had previously been nominated back in 2012 for a PROD and the template was removed by an IP. I'm nominating this since we can't do second PRODs on the article. I can't find anything at all to show that this passes notability guidelines. There's no coverage of this in reliable sources and little to no coverage in anything other than primary sources and junk hits. I'd suggest userfying this, except that the original editor has long since left Wikipedia. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:40, 3 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete. Looks like this is an idea for a film that never really got off the ground (or is possibly in development hell). It doesn't help that the article was created by the creator of the film's production company. Erpert ^{Who is this guy? | Wanna talk about it?} 05:21, 3 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as being TOO SOON and for being shelved. It appears that filmmaker Andrew Lehti posted on the film's Facebook page just a few days ago: "It was quite unfortunate that this film will never see the light of day, but that's okay. Teresa (Schaeffer) is out. A problem from the beginning. I will be starting my production career with smaller projects... " With this admission, and with A) no coverage and B) no place to redirect, this film article cannot remain here. Sorry Andrew, but we have our inclusion guides. If this is ever resurrected and receives coverage, a new article can be considered. Good luck in your endeavors. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 08:22, 3 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Promo piece by the films director. Film lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. duffbeerforme (talk) 08:23, 3 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like the film itself is in an abandoned state (can't believe I just thought of that one...). Erpert ^{Who is this guy? | Wanna talk about it?} 19:10, 3 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Apt... but could not bring myself to use that pun. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 19:35, 3 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
