DEATH TAKES A VACATION
|
|
This
movie follows the adventures of the Grim Reaper (aka "Morty
D'Angelo") for one Memorial Day Weekend as he visits St. Vivian's-On-The-Bay,
a popular New England resort island.
As the weekend of sun, miniature golf and karaoke bars draws on,
some people become enamored of Morty's celebrity, some beg Him to
answer Important Life Questions, and some want to capture Him for
fame and fortune. He skillfully avoids all of these irritants. Morty
becomes especially taken with Emily Waters, the daughter of the
only doctor on the island, and whose mother died in child birth.
After a quick holiday romance, Morty convinces Emily to follow Him
to the Underworld at the end of the weekend, but they are pursued
by the sheriff Ben Masterson, Emily's boyfriend, who must outsmart
Morty on His own turf.

CUT
OUT OF THE PICTURE!, a comedy/horror film, tells the story of a
low-budget movie crew filming a low-budget psycho-slasher movie
while being stalked and killed by a psycho-slasher. Our heroine,
line producer Samantha (Sam) Connors, and her boyfriend, fired camera-man
Jake Gorman, try to finish the film and stay alive while attempting
to solve the mysterious string of murders on the set and at location
(a deserted campgrounds in the mountains, ala Friday the 13th movies).
The final climactic scene takes place on various sound stages as
Sam finds the identity of the real killer, which has to do more
with publicity than psychology.

TIME
JANITORS!
|
| Time
Janitors are the folks that clean up after Time Travelers, so the
people in the historical eras don't find out they have been visited
by observers from the future. That's right, History is just another
world for Someone Else's Mess.
Our
Hero, Jack, is a Time Janitor who discovers that his boss, Orson,
is really a Time-Traveling Psycho Serial Killer. But before Jack
can blow the whistle on him, Orson goes back in Time and steals
the seminal piece of Garbage from the Future, thus changing the
entire History of Temporal Janitorial Services, as well as that
of Time Travel itself. Jack, now just a regular janitor who can
no longer travel through History at will, must figure out how to
stop Orson, find the Garbage from the Future hidden somewhere in
the Past, and restore the Space Time Continuum to its rightful balance.
It's "Men in Black to the Future!"

JENNY
SWERDLOW, RESTAURANT DETECTIVE
|
| Jenny
Swerdlow is a young intern at a San Francisco detective agency, who
wants more than anything to get into the "action" of detective
work. So she's a little put off when her boss assigns her to be a
"Restaurant Detective," which is nothing more than having
dinner at various bistros and eateries to evaluate the food and service
quality. But she gets way more than she wishes for when a co-worker
of David O'Malley, her boyfriend, dies mysteriously during a luncheon
at the exclusive restaurant belonging to Jenny's sister and brother-in-law.
Determined to get to the bottom of what turns out to be a murder,
Jenny must go up against gangsters, hoodlums, corrupt city officials,
and worst of all, David's slimy boss to solve the mystery. Fine food,
exotic San Francisco locales and a goofy bunch of characters make
Jenny's adventure exciting, funny, and even worse, deadly. |
THEY MIGHT BE US - co-written with Lorenzo Matawaran
and Dave Stump. |
| A
goofy parody of the great 1950's sci-fi paranoia flicks, They Might
Be Us follows the story of one lone scientist in a small desert community
as he tries to convince everyone that the "meteor" that fell to earth
is really a space ship of aliens that take over people's bodies, transforming
them into mindless slaves. Written in the style of the Airplane movies,
this film incorporates plots from Invasion of the Body Snatchers,
It Fell to Earth, Invaders from Mars, and many other classic SF films. |
