other
scripts in development:
Baby's
In Black
A romantic black comedy about a nerd who pursues and wins the
heart of a cheerleader as he comforts and supports her after
the death of her boyfriend, the star of the football team.
Blackmail
A sleazy voyeuristic couple who arrange illicit trysts with married,
well heeled businessmen and videotape them for blackmail

The
Experiment
A comedy about a young graduate student dons a helmet-mounted
camera to record every moment of his life and stream it live
on the
Internet,
alienating his friends, family, his girlfriend and his employer.
Herc
Circa 1960, a naive aspiring bodybuilder on muscle beach
is approached by a fanatical Italian film director searching
for the
star of his next low-budget sword and sandal epic. The
making of the movie turns out to be a bigger adventure
as "Hercules in Hades" turns into a trip through
a personal hell of failed relationships and artistic insecurity
for a director that can't tell the difference between fantasy
and reality, an alcoholic actor on the skids, and a California
surfer/bodybuilder that is suddenly thrust into the role
of a director's id. (Think "8 1/2" meets "Hercules
in the Haunted World".) |
