When Steve and Mark, two roomates who don't possess a complete backbone between them, come home to find their apartment bare and their funiture sold for drugs, it's close to being near the last straw.

After covering the shame and hurt with alcohol and a small order of fries, the duo discover their missing housewares on a strange lawn. Thinking quickly, they ransack the find, load up the van with their recovered possessions, and unwittingly set into motion a chain of events that starts with a corpse, a tall lamp, and a box of unlabeled booze, and quickly accelerates towards a clash with an international beauty with a mysterious past, mail fraud, a tranny's ransom, and a rest-stop coupling unlike any ever caught on film.

The 100 Project Inc., a local independent film production company that asks 100 investors to contribute $100 each to create low-budget feature-length films, begins shooting its first film in and around Baltimore today.

Corpus Kristi, featuring local talent behind and in front of the camera, will shoot through March 26. The 100 Project was conceived in 2004 by Kevin Perkins, a senior account manager with Allied Advertising and Public Relations in Baltimore.

Perkins describes Corpus Kristi as a black comedy -- "Arsenic and Old Lace as redone by the Coen Brothers." Contributors earn a chance to appear in the film and be closely involved in all aspects of the filmmaking and promotion process through its local premiere.

The 100 Project -- online at the100project.com -- intends to provide a low-risk alternative to traditional production companies and attract Maryland talent to the film industry.

Corpus Kristi is an independent movie shot in and around Baltimore. Written by C. Patrick Storck and Directed by Shawn Jones, Corpus Kristi is a production of the 100 Project.
