TARGETED!!! A WESTERN WRITTEN BY A SEVEN YEAR OLD
The gun's the law out here in the West! |
See what happens when a script I wrote when I was seven is shot and played completely straight.
In the 1980s, a seven year old wrote a western movie script. It made no sense at all. This short film was shot from that unedited script.
It inspired the ongoing Targeted short film series, which uses some of this film's characters and settings in a much more mature and detailed (not to mention rational) story.
Jimmy Makton is a naive greenhorn who's found himself in the wild west. Luckily, Samuel Barnet's showing him the ropes of how to survive in the area...but Bickerin' Billy's in town looking to get back the money Samuel owes him by the deadliest means.

THE BOUNTY HUNTER
AND THE BUTCHER
No need to go looking for trouble when it's gone looking for you. |
This film takes settings, characters and situations from "Targeted!!!" and adapts them into a more mature and coherent story and film.
In 1874, acclaimed local hero and Pinkerton Agent Jimmy Makton is called in from Chicago to California to track down Billy the Butcher, a vicious murderer targeting soldiers and lawmen. Paired against his will with the wild bounty hunter Samuel Barnet, Jimmy soon finds that he may not be as ready for the frontier as it is for him.
It's a frantic ride of guns and blood for Jimmy, and it's only just started -- the Targeted series begins here!
runtime: 20:45

JIMMY MAKTON
AND THE COUNTING ROOM THREE
Some legends are made. Some are manufactured. |
This film is a prequel to "The Bounty Hunter And The Butcher" focusing on the back story of one of its main characters.
Jimmy Makton is a Pinkerton Agent and two-fisted Chicago hero in the 1870s who nearly meets his match when he tracks three bank robbers to their hideout -- well, according to what he tells the press anyway.
There's more than one side to a story and Jimmy's got them all covered, depending on who's listening. See how it all goes down in this prequel to The Bounty Hunter And The Butcher!
runtime: 9:10
