I nominated this article for uncontroversial proposed deletion a few months ago, but it did not qualify as I had already nominated the article beforehand years back. I should've read the criteria for WP:PROD more carefully, that's on me. Since that initial nomination I think I can now properly articulate why the article should be deleted: It is lacking in sources as the film has not received significant coverage. The only notable sourced aspect of the subject matter is the involvement of Leslie Neilson, which could be merged into his article. Otherwise, the subject matter fails to meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines outlined in WP:MOVIE. The article on the Waterman web series has been deleted for similar reasons concerning a lack of sources. I did some searching and haven't been able to find additional sources outside of two citations from Google Books and this article, both related to Neilson. LBWP (talk) 00:52, 26 June 2022 (UTC)

- Delete per above. It's sad that this will likely never get released, but in the meantime there's just not enough to show that this stalled project meets NFF. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 18:23, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
