I have two directors that are looking to produce low budget horror features. (So 2 different projects)
We are looking for something sexy/comical horror.
Or a psych thriller with a great twist.
If you have something...
Drop your loglines so we can see what you have!

DARKEST MIRIAM opens March 28
Miriam Gordon lives in a fog of grief while working in a public library branch. When a burgeoning love-affair coincides with her receiving a series of oddly threatening letters, Miriam’s sheltered existence is cracked open.

Audacious, freaky, and never predictable. An oddity you won’t soon forget. #BestofTubi m.imdb.com/title/tt5265960/

Through struggle and discipline, persistence and faith, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. helped move this country forward. As we honor his legacy today, let’s remember the lesson he taught us: that even in the face of impossible odds, people who love this country can help change it. In honor of #MLKDay, I hope you’ll do what you can in your community to create a better future for us all.

I recommend this film, especially if you’ve ever failed a Captcha, and think you might be a robot…

A wonderfully unpredictable doomed romance flick, full of visual panache, compelling characters, superb direction, and unforgettably bad hair.
