Spike Lee's Kickstarter campaign for 'The Newest Hottest Spike Lee Joint' has raised $1.3 million with 4 more days to go. The original goal was set at $1.25 million. The campaign started slow, with ordinary people taking some time to open their wallets to donate. As days passed, Lee reworked his pitch as he remind his followers of his origin as an indie filmmaker and his love for filmmaking.
What is his project about? "What I can tell you is this. I have never made a film like this and it excites me very much. I’m doing a semi-genre film about addiction. These people are addicted to blood. Yet however they are not vampires. It’s going to be sexy, humorous and bloody. To me that’s a unique combination," Lee said.
