Let’s set the record straight regarding my movie Bad Medicine:
It’s come to my attention that someone is spreading misinformation. Once they see the movie, they will regret it, and if they are humble enough, they will see that they are doing the victims a disservice by attempting to discredit a movie that gives their voices a platform.
First, let’s follow the money:
Professionally produced documentaries typically cost $700,000 or more to create. I set out to complete Bad Medicine for only $275,000. This means that no one, including myself, is getting paid.
Two family members of victims generously donated a total of $17,250, leaving over $250,000 still needed. We started a crowdfunding campaign, which generated $94,078.
With that amount we decided to move back into production trusting that the rest of funding would materialize as needed.
But there was another major issue— I was fully committed to directing two other urgent movies and had no bandwidth to helm Bad Medicine. I was left with the choice of putting the movie back on pause for another 9–12 months or hiring another director.
I hired someone I trusted to take the wheel. With all due respect to this person, once they dug into the content of the movie, they decided to take the narrative in a completely different direction, one that excluded the vast majority of victim stories to focus mainly on just one. I received no communication about this, so I had no idea this new direction was happening.
Three months went by before the two editors hired to work with the new director called a meeting with me. This is when I first learned that the director I hired had made the executive decision to take the movie in another direction. He was removed from the project.
The full amount raised through crowdfunding was consumed over those three months. Once again, we were back at square one: no money, no director, no movie.
Unwilling to let this critical story go untold, I decided to step in as director and fund the movie myself.
Now let’s address a social media post by COVID protocol survivor Greta Crawford, which features a clip of me without fair context.
In the clip, I say:
“The truth is, the vast majority of doctors are well-intended, good people who themselves were coerced and tricked into forcing these protocols upon their patients, and they’re all now dealing with the regret and the weight that comes with knowing that they were forced to defy their oath to ‘do no harm.’ And so we also want to make things right and find justice for the doctors who are under the stranglehold of a very, very corrupt system.”
Greta is presenting this as if I’m suggesting in some way that the murderers in scrubs and white coats deserve our empathy. Let me spell this out in plain English: FUCK THEM! They deserve nothing less than life in prison. I hope I’ve made myself clear.
The people I’m referring to in that clip are the good doctors and nurses who, once they realized they had been conned and coerced by the system, did the right thing by speaking out, risking their careers, reputations, and their lives. These include the doctors featured in the movie, such as Dr. Paul Marik, Dr. Pierre Kory, Dr. Christina Parks, and many more.
Those brave medical professionals deserve respect and justice. Of course that’s who I’m referring to.
Bad Medicine will do a lot of good in the world, and it just might be the catalyst to hold accountable all those who knowingly participated in this crime against humanity.
Beware of anyone attempting to thwart this message.
Bad Medicine will premiering at the Malibu Film Festival Nov 15.
Not only does it pull back the curtain on the medical genocide that took place (and continues to take place) in hospitals around the world, but it is also a step-by-step education on how to avoid this from ever happening again.
As with all of my COVID related movies, Bad Medicine will eventually be distributed world-wide without charge.
