The troubles of making the extended scenes for Hated Guests

The new scenes for Hated Guest 3rd cut are all filmed.  Almost two hours worth of footage - though it will be a lot less once I have whittled it down.
  In the process of editing the footage right now - chroma keying all that green away and placing the characters back into the Haunted Mansion House of Edmund Gore!
  But darn me!  Was it ever a difficult shoot!  
  Haha!
  I have been meaning to expand the Hated Guests for years - and once I had finally written the new scenes I thought to myself, like the narrator in the movie: 'Okay!  Let's do this!'
  I set up the green screen - fixed the camera ready for action...
  ...And then everything that could go wrong went wrong!
  SD card I was using got corrupted.  People across the road started to hold a party - I actually picked up their loud and liquored voices!  
  Then I had to go back to work, and then i was too tired to do anything.  
  Then when I was on a roll the camera battery went flat and that was the end of that!
  Ahh the joys of making indie movies!
  But I got it done eventually.
  All scenes shot.
  That's the most important thing.
  When will the final product be finished?  Goodness knows - but for now it is time to have a drink!
  Because ​there is nothing better than feeling that burning wrathful river flowing down the throat!
