It's Been A while - Here's What's Happening with Nail House
Hey everyone!
It's been a little while since our last update, so we wanted to check in and let you know what's been happening behind the scenes with Nail House and share something new we're incredibly excited about.
Nail House Update
Right now we're deep in editing.
Back in early July, the team set an aggressive internal deadline for Matt and Freddie to export a cut of the film because we were fortunate enough to have several festival contacts interested in seeing the movie, including one who had hoped to watch it before the Fourth of July weekend.
Long story short, the cut wasn't quite ready.
As frustrating as that was, the deadline ended up being incredibly valuable. It gave everyone a much clearer picture of exactly how much work remains before we reach a polished cut and, ultimately, picture lock. Now we have a solid roadmap for what still needs to happen and how the team can support Matt and Freddie as they push toward the finish line.
Luckily, that festival contact is still interested in seeing the film.
So... we're essentially locking Matt and Freddie in an editing room until they come out with a movie. (Food and water will be provided.)
We're also getting a much clearer picture of the pickup shots we'll need. That list is growing, and we're beginning to plan a dedicated pickup shoot that includes a few scenes we're especially excited about...
A miniature Mama Wong's getting blown to pieces.
A motorcycle launching through the restaurant.
Thank you again for making all of this possible!
One More Thing...
Some of you may have already heard the news...
Dungeons & Daddies is launching Dungeons & Daddies: Not a BDSM Sourcebook, a 5E-compatible sourcebook inspired by the podcast, and we'd love to invite you to check it out.
Because so many of you supported Nail House, we wanted to do something a little extra.
If you backed Nail Houseand back Dungeons & Daddies: Not a BDSM Sourcebook, you'll receive an exclusive enamel pin featuring Freddie's character, Glenn Close, doing what Glenn Close does best - absolutely rocking himself in the nuts with a pair of nunchucks.
The campaign launches July 21.
If you follow the campaign before launch, you'll receive a FREE bumper sticker with your pledge.
Or, if you reserve your pledge for just $5, you'll also receive a FREE collector coin featuring the ultimate dad phrase: "I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed."
We hope you'll join us for the next adventure. You can follow along with the campaign here!

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I add more names to the credits? Opting in for a tier that allows for "your name in the credits" grants only ONE entry. This can be your real name, nickname, or anything you choose, as long as it's non-offensive, vulgar-free, and within 15 Characters. We will ask for your entry once the surveys are sent. If you wish to add more, you will need to purchase an additional pledge tier that includes this option. To do so, please email [email protected] so we can manually add an additional pledge. Please note this means you will get more than one survey and both will need filled out and paid for.
When will I get my rewards?
We are hard at work making this film worth all the love and support its been given! That being said, this is not a quick process! Once we finish filming, we will begin production of the physical rewards and send updates as it gets closer to fulfillment. Rough timeline for this is Spring/Summer of 2027.
Will DVDs be region specific?
Our 4K DVD options will not be locked or region-specific.

I live in Japan, are you planning a Japan release event? If not; you can have it at my place in Tokyo. I have a 28 inch Sony trinitron we can watch it on. Or I can ask my band mates to get a concert venue or something here. Whatever
