Movies

  • Harlem on the Prairie

    There's a singing cowboy hero, a charming heroine, a melodious quartet, two amusing comedians, but best of all I liked the villain. I guess because he reminded me of Akim Tamiroff. If you like Westerns, this one will be an innovation.

    ‐ Irene Thirer, New York Daily News

  • I Am Lisa

    The werewolf effects are subtle but effective-kudos to the special effects makeup team. Overall, I Am Lisa is a solid horror flick with just the right amount of drama and comedy.

    ‐ Staci Layne Wilson, Women in Horror

  • Alabama Snake

    [U]ses a light touch with tropes of horror and grand guignol that ground the story in its time and place while setting a mood of uncertainty that lends plausibility to mutually exclusive scenarios.
