          WRACK

          2021, Studio Midnight

          In the distant future, centuries after nearly all life has been wiped out by war, disease, and environmental collapse, the planet has begun to heal itself. WRACK focuses on four mutated humans, who despite being the only known people left on their world, still cannot get along.
          Coming in 2021.
          Watch the trailer.

          HYPOTHERMIA

          2012, Dark Sky Films

          “a lean, suspenseful horror show"
          -- Jason Coffman, FilmMonthly

          A chilly retro creature feature starring Michael Rooker (Guardians of the Galaxy, The Walking Dead) and Blanche Baker (The Girl Next Door, Sixteen Candles). With Benjamin Forster, Amy Chang, Don Wood, Greg Finley and Larry Fessenden.

          Watch the trailer.

          SATAN HATES YOU

          2010, Glass Eye Pix

          "a clever collision of flamboyant gore and social commentary that never goes too far with anything save mordant wit"
          -- John Anderson, VARIETY
          A satirical homage to christian "scare" films and comics. Starring Christine Spencer and Don Wood. With Angus Scrimm (Phantasm), Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes), Larry Fessenden (Habit), Debbie Rochon (Mulberry St), Reggie Bannister (Phantasm), Max Brooks (author, World War Z), Pauley Perrette (NCIS), and John Levene (Doctor Who).

          Winner - Best Feature - Coney Island Film Festival

          AUTOMATONS

          2006, Glass Eye Pix

          "...the movie’s loving attention to light and shade transcends its hermetic setting and meager budget. At times the buzzing static and fizzy backlighting recall the glistening surrealism of the filmmaker Guy Maddin... enormously endearing"
          --
          Jeannette Catsoulis, NEW YORK TIMES

          A low-fi sci-fi fever dream starring Christine Spencer (Satan Hates You), Angus Scrimm (Phantasm), and Brenda Cooney (I Sell the Dead), with John Levene (Doctor Who).

          THE OFF SEASON

          2004, Glass Eye Pix

          "deliberately-paced ghost story from executive producer Larry Fessenden. At first glance, the plot plays out like The Shining, but more probing reveals that there's a lot at work here and that the film has merit on its own."
          -- Martin & Porter, DVD & Video Guide 2007

          A ghost story set on the coast of Maine starring Christina Campanella, Angus Scrimm, Don Wood, Larry Fessenden, Ruth Kulerman, and Brenda Cooney.

           

          CANNIBALLISTIC!

          2002, MonsterPants Movies

          "Fine performances, strong direction, effective music and a smart, tongue-in-cheek script make CanniBallistic a no-budget winner... check it out"
          -- Nathan Tyler, Rue Morgue

          A blood-soaked black comedy starring Satan Hates You cast members Don Wood, Laura Sweeney, Turquoise Taylor Grant, and Winston Bramen, with Doctor Who's John Levene.
