Is Chris White coming with an eleventh Tension video one day ? Maybe…
Here’s what photographer Phil Gallagher says: “Its all just up in the air at the moment but Chris White is considering making Tension 11. Yeah you heard it hear first people and he is thinking about making it all in Peru with the original cast members from his early movies. My sources in WA have been pretty tight lipped about it but if your anywhere near EBB in Perth between 10 am and 5pm this friday Whitey is working in store so go and ask him about it”.
That would be sick !
Update: This happens to be a rumour. Looks like the DVD will not happen. Too bad. We’d have loved it ! hehe
