ABOUT
WHO IS
WALTON THOMAS COOK ?
I am an independent filmmaker and writer specializing in creating weird or experimental projects. I've been making little movies since my early teens and though I have no intentions of ever really operating within the film industry, I plan to keep creating whatever wacky idea pops into my head whether there's an audience for it or not.
WHAT IS
KIDWALT?
KIDWALT is the brand I created to publish all of my work under. When I first decided to start making movies I created Walton Independent, you can see the old logo below. But later on I really liked the name KIDWALT, and I had an artist friend of mine create the logo you see now.

WHAT IS
ZENBAD?
What is ZENBAD? That's a good question, and I don't really have a proper answer. What I can say objectively is that in its current state ZENBAD is an indie film series created by me and my close friend Owen Getz. The films take place in different times in history as well as different countries. The stories change each volume and don't follow any chronological order, however there is one character that reoccurs in each Volume of the series, that is Ido Suzuki. Though Ido appears in each film his roll, back story, and occupation changes. Perhaps Ido Suzuki is ZENBAD or maybe the world around him better fits as it's definition. ZENBAD may just be an essence, a vibe or style of filmmaking that me and Owen found interesting. The real question is, are you ZENBAD?
